Coffee Make Everything Better

Happy Friday everyone!! Erica here with you today to bring you a card I created with some fabulous products from the Paper Wings Shop! I started with a white card base and a white panel and wanted to create a background using the Art Textures stamp set. I stamped out the circle image all of my white card panel in a pretty pink ink. I also pulled out two of my favorite coffee stamps Frothy Concoctions and Play With Your Coffee from the PWP shop. I pulled out some pattern paper and inked the image up in some grey ink and stamped it out! The sentiment is to cute and is perfect for any coffee lover! To finish off my card I added some aqua bakers twine to add a pop of color to the card and then popped up the panel with some pop dots on the card base! Super simple and took no time at all to create! Here is a look at my finished card!

I just love how the background came out and I think it would be fun to do one in some neon colors with a sentiment inked in black! Thanks so much for stopping today! Enjoy your day and remember to let your creativity take flight!
