Coffee Loving Papercrafters meets Casual Fridays!

Hello there Coffee Loving Crafters!  Today I'm joining my fellow Coffee Loving Cardmakers DT and the designers from CAS-UAL FRIDAYS stamps for a collaboration hop!  I'm thrilled to share a few cards I created using the fun new sentiment set called Hot Coffee and the Coffee Cup Fri-Dies.  

Make sure to leave comments on our blogs as you just might win one of three generous gift certificates from CAS-UAL Fridays Stamps worth $25 each!
To create my first card, I started out by applying a variety of colors of splashes (lavender, two greens, orange) to mix the perfect coffee tone and placed that on my Gelli Plate.  After I lifted the print, I made a second print to use for my diecuts.  

Next, I flicked some colorful ink onto the background panel and used a leftover sparkly oval as an embellishing layer onto the side of the panel.  Then, I tied some ribbon, added the cup/sentiment and finished the card off with some pretty bling and real coffee beans.  
The insert of the coffee cup was painted and attached a little low so that the brown coffee would be set apart from the cup.

My next card...
It's a little lady incognito...  All spiffed up for Halloween!  
She's sparkly, frilly and oh-so-fabulous, don'tcha think?!  I paired up the fun die with some machine stitched and ruffled ribbon, and some doodly facial features.  

To finish off her fabulocity, I added some doodly sentiments and a little fun with Nuvo drops.  She sure does like Big Cups...Yep, I do too.  :)
