I really wanted a sunny, early morning look to this card and so chose this fun, bright, and colorful printed paper from the Create and Bloom Prints. It paired perfectly with Limeade Splash cardstock which I used as the base card.
I recently purchased the Fancy Frames Oval dies from Sunny Studios and decided to use them on this particular card to offset the sentiment. I cut them out of Limeade Splash cardstock and used all the pieces to create this pretty oval. The sentiment was stamped on Whip Cream cardstock using black Licorice ink. I then die cut the sentiment using the Cottage Cutz Stitched Oval Frame die set. It was then adhered to the center of the green oval.
And, what better than a hot cup of coffee or tea to start your day, so I stamped the coffee cup image from the Coffee Helps stamp set twice on Whip Cream Cardstock once using Black Licorice and then another image in Limeade Splash ink. I die cut the black stamped image using the coordinating die. The green stamped image, I just fussy cut the green stripe out and adhered it to the black stamped cup. The steam was then stamped in black licorice ink and fussy cut. I adhered it to the top of the cup and glued the cup to the lower right side of the oval.
As a final added touch, I added a piece of the printed paper to the envelope flap. I love the added touch and how it really coordinates with the card! This is a quick, simple card that can easily be mailed to that special person.
