Christmas Coffee

Today's card satisfied the requirements of four challenges including the 2018 Fall/Winter Coffee Challenge Blog Hop.

First, my card has been posted at Try Stampin' on Tuesdays #387, which has an optional theme (use embossing) along with the required sketch challenge.

Next, I posted my card at Double Trouble #16. To include required elements and options, I used a winter theme, included snowflakes, added a coffee element and posted my card to the Three Amigos Challenge #21, which requires embossing on a holiday card.

Onto a white card base, a panel of green cardstock was adhered and then a panel of Kraft paper patterned with snowflakes. A strip of white cardstock was embossed with coffee beans and lightly sponged. The embossed strip was backed with coordinating green cardstock. The image was stamped, colored with Copic markers, fussy cut and then adhered using pop-up foam tape. The frothy topping was created by using a fake snow product. Gems from my stash and a computer-generated sentiment completed the card front. The inside of the card was decorated with the coordinating paper and stamped with a Christmas sentiment.
