Cup of Thanks~

It's Monday and the Flourishes Timeless Tuesday challenge from last week is due in a couple of hours...so here are two of my entries using their Lots of Polk Dots Challenge! I made two cards from my new in the mail set, "Grab a Cup." Like many of you, I love my morning coffee, and thought this set was darling with the pretty added daisies. Thanks for stopping in, wish I could offer you a cup in person and we could sit and have a nice long chat!
I used a pretty spellbinders die to frame this out, cut out the main image and made my own little plaid napkin using ink and a blender pen. I used dots in the designer paper, both the top and the bottom with the big doilies.
I used the same polka dots with the designer paper, and tried using my copics to make dots in my tea, but then realized that tea doesn't usually look mottled like that, and if it were coffee, it would most likely be grounds, and then, why would there be a lemon on the side of my coffee cup? Oh well, the good thing about stamping is it is all "pretend" and you can make things any way you want them to be. I loved playing with this set and hope you enjoy the final outcome!


Thanks for stopping by my blog today!
