Grateful-Coffee And Cards With Celeste And Deb

 

Since we are teetering on the precipice of Autumn, Debra and I decided to use this gorgeous mood board as our inspiration. I won't lie, it's still pretty warm here in Southeast Missouri, so this mood board is more wishful thinking on my part. LOL. All of my stamped elements are from Hero Arts Grateful Pumpkin stamp and die bundle. I colored all of my images to match the color inspiration on the mood board, die cut the images, and arranged them into some light kraft cardstock that I mounted onto my white A2 card base. Some were popped up with Stampin' UP foam dimensionals and some were glued directly to the card base. The sentiment was stamped from the same stamp set using Versamark clear ink and Ranger white detail embossing powder. I finished this card off with some black gloss gems from Trinity Stamps. 

My coffee this month is this adorable latte I had at the Ritz Carlton this past weekend. You gotta love coffee art, right? Now be sure to pop on over to Debra's blog and see how she was inspired this month. 

Many Thanks

 

Today's card was created for the latest Just Us Girls card challenge. I heat embossed a sentiment from Hero Arts Grateful Pumpkin die and stamp bundle onto my kraft cardstock panel using Ranger gold detail embossing powder. I then layered the panel onto my A2 white card base. Using plain white cardstock, I stamped and heat embossed the pumpkins and leaves from the same stamp and die bundle. Using my Ranger distress inks, I colored them all using a blending brush, die cut them out using their coordinating dies, and layered them onto my card panel. I finished them off with some gold sequins from The Ton. Thank you for visiting my blog today!
