Blog Design Team: A Mug of ‘Awesome’
Happy Tuesday, crafty friends! It’s time to rise and shine with this bright and colorful card from Blog Team Designer Lisa Henke.
And now, here’s Lisa to tell us all about her project…
I love coffee. I love the how it tastes, I love how it smells, and recently I
discovered iced coffee. It is so easy to make at home. Thanks to The
Pioneer Woman, I have been keeping this in my fridge this summer. Try it; you’ll love it! To celebrate the joy of coffee, I decided to combine coffee and rainbows — what’s not to love?
I used the striped pattern from the Rainbow Brights 6×6 Paper Pack.
I cut out a large circle from the center and cut another smaller circle
from white cardstock to nest inside and be the centerpiece of my card. I used foam tape to
pop up the whole Rainbow paper panel.
I stamped the large sentiment from Hug in a Mug.
I love that there are a few options to place in that empty space. I
used the “makes us awesome” and used my MISTI to ensure perfect
placement.
I stamped one of the mugs and used my Copics to color it up. I
did some easy fussy cutting and then popped it up above my sentiment. I
used a circle punch to add a hole to the handle and tied on a yellow
twine bow. Some enamel dots finished off the embellishments.
Thank you for sharing this ‘awesome’ card with us today, Lisa! You can find more of Lisa’s beautiful work on her blog, My Little Creative Escape. Have a joyful day!
