May your cup - Day 6

 Wednesday November 11, 2020

today is Day 6 of the Fall / Winter Coffee Lovers blog hop



This is my card. I had this fern stamped (Simon Says) card stock I created a couple weeks ago and I hated it. The leaves were too dark on the lighter green. So I thought ok time to work with it. I took green Ranger inks and blended the background till I got a depth of color I liked. I then spritzed it with water. I patted it dry and then dried with my heat gun. I like the fuzzy look of the stamped ferns cause I had used dye ink instead of an ink that wouldn't run. It almost has a suede look to it now. I used some Christmas designer paper and used Stamp Simply die to cut the cup out. I used a gold card stock and Paper Trey ink die for the mat. The leaves in the cup are from Stampin up and using Stampin up ink. I stamped the Stamp Simply sentient and heat embossed. I used Quick Quote chalk ink to distress the edges.
