Life Begins After Coffee

For my card today, I was inspired by the cute pastel mugs and flowers in the inspiration photo, as well as the colors.

I used patterned paper scraps to stamp out, heat emboss, and die cut these cute mugs. The stamps and dies are from a very old Hero Arts club kit. The flowers are Spellbinders, and the decorative panel is Papertrey Ink. The sentiment is from Technique Junkies, sadly, no longer in business. The coffee bean stencil in the background is from IOS stamps, also no longer in business.

It’s always enjoyable and satisfying to use cherished items from my stash to create beauty.

We hope you’re inspired to join us this week. ~MarDi
