It's time for a new challenge at
Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge! Stacey, our wonderful leader, picks all of the graphics. Doesn't she do a fantastic job??!! This is no exception...it's simple and sweet, and can really go in a lot of directions.
I'm seeing cocoa or chocolate, I'm seeing mugs whether they be cocoa or coffee, I'm seeing colors and a rustic theme. And that's the direction that I went!
I was also heavily influenced by our sponsor - My Favorite Things Stamps. The LEAD for the Curtain Call Challenge will receive a $20 gift certificate!
I happened to get this set in a recent order - it's Wood You Be Mine? I used two of the "wood" shapes along with a fun sentiment. I was going for the rustic look of the inspiration photo.
Be sure to check out all of the design team inspiration over at the Curtain Call blog. Then play along! I look forward to seeing what you create.
- Stamps: My Favorite Things Wood You Be Mine?
- Paper: My Favorite Things Natural and Berrylicious
- Ink: My Favorite Things Natural, Berrylicious and Hot Fudge
- Accessories: My Favorite Things Accent it Flags and Tags die, Hemptique 10-lb Natural Twine (also available at My Favorite Things). FYI - MFT has a heart die that matches the wood heart, but I was surprised to discover that I didn't own it!)
I love these soft blues and creamy coffee colours together, Kim ... great splash of dark chocolate with the button! Anita :)
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful! Love the heart and the fun sentiment!
ReplyDeleteRustic's my thing and I also love puns so this card is perfect to me.
ReplyDeleteSo perfect! Love that you used splatter to mimic the flecks on the mug! Such pretty twine too - and I LOVE the sentiment and how you paired it perfectly with all the wood grain! Awesome card!!
ReplyDeleteSo so COOL, Miss Lady!! :)
ReplyDeleteLove your take on this, Kim. Perfect colors, and it has the look of a perfect cup of latte if you ask me! Sweet card. Bev

ReplyDeletebeautiful, Kim! way to rock the MFT and Cuppa Cocoa!
ReplyDeleteFantastic take on the challenge Kim, love the brown specs!
ReplyDeleteI once gave cups like these to a very dear friend of mine!! The same sort of handcrafted look and color, so your pic brings back sweet memories! :-)
ReplyDeleteLove the direction you took for your very inspirational card!!!
Love the colors and the (randomly???) spots of ink, the button and twine are the perfect finishing details and the sentiment you choose is sooooo very funny, perfect to give to a man, husband, wanna be boyfriend, not to sweet and definite clear and witty!!
Love the color behind the heart too, emphasizes it!
Small details, great effect! Perfect.
Have a wonderful sunday,
Bye,
