Thanks a Latte!


Hi everyone.  Today I am the Guest Designer for CAS on Sunday!  I won their challenge a few weeks back, so they asked if I would like to guest design - of course!! :)  Thanks to the team at CAS on Sunday for this wonderful honor!

Today's challenge is this fun sketch ...


Right away I thought of the three, stacked coffee mugs from Bugaboo Stamps.  I kept it simple by coloring with Copics, adding a little shimmer to the designs on the mugs with my Wink of Stella Pen, and adding faux stitching around the edge of the main panel.

Since I have faux stitching on my card, I'm also entering this into the current challenge at Virginia's View #3 - stitching.

I hope you'll join in the challenge at CAS on Sunday #33.  The challenge is open for two weeks, so there's lots of time to play.
