Popping by to share a card I whipped up for the Winter/Holiday Coffee Lovers blog hop and the ARTplorations Stencil blog hop. Check out both posts because there are plenty of prizes up for grabs simply by leaving a comment. And if you made something using stencils within the last month, make sure to link it up by Sunday to the flash stencil project linky party for a chance to win more stencils.
To create my one layer card, I stamped the coffee cup and then masked it. Then I placed the snowflakes stencil over the card and sponged 2 shades of blue (soft pool and pool by HA). I added some faux texture with the grunge stamps and and stamped the coffee-themed sentiment. Finished the card by coloring the coffee cup with watercolor brush pens.
