Coffee Loving Papercrafters

Hello everyone…it’s Michael ,the crazy American….living in the countryside of São Paulo again.  For this week’s card, I am celebrating “caffeinated love” with a stamp set from Unity Stamp.

I started by adhering a piece of red cardstock to my card front.  Then I cut a piece of white cardstock with the Hugs and Kisses Cover-Up die (My Favorite Things/retired), which I then adhered to the red cardstock.  Now, I know this is retired but a piece of designer paper with some X’s and O’s would work perfectly as well.

I used Jet Black Amalgam Ink (Gina K. Designs) to stamp two of the coffee cup image and each of the sentiments from the Love to Go stamp set (Unity Stamp).

I colored and fussy cut the cups, trimmed each of the sentiments and layered them on a piece of black cardstock.  Then I adhered the cups to the front – one with glue, the other with foam tape, and then the sentiments.

Lastly, I adhered some Diamond Glaze (JudiKins) on the top of each heart and placed to the side to dry.  It will dry hard and look great!

And, here’s the final card.  I love how the Diamond Glaze hardens on the hearts.
