here are the cards that I created for these blog hop

For these cards I started by die cutting out of a sheet of Strathmore smooth paper the Frappe Shake base, lid, straw and the whipping cream part. In the meanwhile I die cut the Enjoy word out of the same piece of paper. Then I inked it up one of the bases from the top to the bottom with Antique Linen, Vintage Photo, Walnut Stain, Ground Espresso and Black Soot. For the second I started by inking it up the base, but in the opposite way as you can see in the pictures.

For the word Enjoy as it was a 3 layering word. I started by inking it up the bottom layer with the same colors that I used for the card base, then I kept it very simple leaving the middle layer in white. And I heat embossed the actual Enjoy die cutting word with WOW! Embossing Glitter in Cooper Sparkle. Last but not least I adhered all the layers together with liquid glue creating a single word, and I adhered it to the card base.

For the top part I inked it up the lid with Tumbled Glass distress oxide ink, then I inked it up with Lucky Clover distress oxide ink the straw and I heat glitter embossed the whipping cream part with WOW! Embossing Glitter in Diamond White. The sentiment that I use for these cards was from the Shake it Off stamp set by Honey Bee Stamps. For the sentiment, I stamped it in one of the top pieces with Versafine Onyx Black ink and I clear heat embossed it with WOW! Clear Gloss for a dimensional look. To finish it off the cards I adhered all the pieces together and I added a piece of string, that I tie them up with a bow as their closures.

Best,
Yasmin
