Hello and welcome! I am thrilled to be Guest Designer at Just Us Girls for the month of January! Woo hoo! And do we have some fun challenges for you, starting with Word Week and the word beverage.
For my card, I decided to use the cute mugs from Honey Bee stamps.
This card was so much fun to make because most of it was die cutting. I used my Copic markers to add some dimension to the cups, whip cream and marsh mellows. The hearts were die cut from red cardstock, painted with a shimmer pen, then coated with Glossy Accents. The sentiment was heat embossed with red sparkle embossing powder, then die cut with the coordinating dies and layered on two additional die cuts for some dimension.
The card base was created with the same cardstock as the mugs. The patterned paper is from a free gift with purchase from Honey Bee. It was trimmed down slightly smaller than the card base, lightly inked around the edges with some brown ink, then I added a strip of wood design patterned paper to be the "table" for the mugs and marsh mellows to sit. All the components for the mugs were adhered then the mug in the back was glued directly to the panel, with the mug in front added with foam tape. The sentiment was added above the mugs, and I thought I was finished, but then remembered I had some tiny red heart sequins, so I adhered those around the sentiment for the final touch.
