Oh Frap! Coffee cards

I finally had a minute to play.  I have been using leftover cuts and pieces from my stash.  I had these coffee cups lying around.  So that is where I began, then I grabbed my coffee embossing folder.  I found this sketch over at Stick it Down but I didn't want to use such sharp corners.  I thought this is a perfect place to use my Kiwi Lane templates!  Finally, I added a die cut sentiment from Stamplorations.


Here's the sketch:


A close up of the details:


I made a couple of versions.  This used the reverse of the Kiwi Lane cut.


And for the third card, I die cut a scrap and added a corrugated strip behind.


Ingredients:
Tim Holtz/Sizzix On the go embossing folder with Mini Fresh Brew movers and shapers dies
Creative Memories printed paper
Quick Quotes Mocha Moma chalking ink
Frantic Stamper rounded corner rectangle die
Stamplorations coffee sentiment dies
TPC Studio Coffee Cafe stamp
metallic pearl gems
Kiwi Lane Mini Madison 2A template

I would like to enter this in the following challenges:









Thanks so much for stopping by!
