Caffeine & Kindness

January 27, 2017

Hello there!  It’s Melissa here with a clean & simple design using stamps from both Hero Arts and this month’s sponsor, Right At Home!  Even though our January challenge has ended, I couldn’t resist using Right At Home’s coffee themed sets to create a cozy, caffeine themed card.

As a coffee lover myself, this particular sentiment won my heart!  I selectively stamped it, using the ampersand from Hero Arts’ You & Me set.  I love how well it coordinates with the font in the Right At Home sentiment!  I framed the pretty sentiment by cutting around it with a stitched die and popping it up with foam squares for dimension.  The little red heart was added using one of Hero Arts’ Kelly Purkey wooden stamp sets called Coffee and Donuts, a set consisting of adorable miniature coffee & donut themed images!  I paper pieced the cup to add a little extra pop of color and interest before popping the cup up with foam dots.

I hope your January has been going smoothly for you!  If all else fails, grab another cup of coffee!

Stay tuned for next month’s challenge, beginning Monday, February 6!  We’ll have a brand new theme and we’ll be highlighting another wonderful sponsor!

Happy stamping!
