Spring/Summer Hop Day 2: Joy Clair

Hey there coffee loving crafters/hoppers!  I'm back with my second card for the hop.  I created this card today and it features our Super Sponsor Joy Clair stamps as added goodies from Super Sponsors Right at Home, Butterfly Reflections Ink and Fun Stampers Journey!  

To create my card, I stamped the sentiment from the Coffee Quotes set onto white cardstock using VersaFine Clair Warm Breeze ink.  After that, I stamped the cups (I cut it away from the sentiment) using Memento Tuxedo Black then colored the center dots with Versafine Clair Warm Breeze, Summertime and Charming Pink.  I added more color with my watercolor pencils from Fun Stampers Journey.  

I took a little piece of leftover paper from yesterday's card to create the border.  The border was created with the yummy new Nuvo Shimmer powders that I picked up from Butterfly Reflections, Inc.  Stitching it with my sewing machine made it add a bit of added texture.  I also used the die in the Ric-Rac border from the Folded Gift Bag Die Set from Right At Home.

I mounted the design onto some FSJ vellum and mirror gold cardstock then mounted that onto a white card base.  To finish the card off, I added a few watercolored butterflies that were stamped from the ever-popular Joy Clair stamp set called Butterfly Kisses.  A few bits of gold thread and Nuvo Drops in Bubblegum Pink finished my card off.

Thanks for stopping by as you hop along for coffee-licious inspiration.  Thanks also to all the fabulous Super Sponsors who generously contribute prizes to our hop.  I really appreciate you!  :)
