So, let me get started...
Inspiration for this first came immediately after I came across these cool mugs. Couldn't be more happy with the way this pattern turned out. The dotted line and extended oval shape are two different stamps, I saved time by attaching them to one acrylic block together.
I attached the die cut mug to the front of a kraft card base at a slight angle and then carefully trimmed off the excess. Finished the card off with a sentiment tag, which was created using the Cuppa Love stamp set and coordinating die.
Here's a sweet cup shaped card, inspired by the popular hand drawn sharpie mugs I've seen floating around Pinterest (like these for example). I trimmed off the bottom stem to give this shape a whole different look.
These three piece flowers were stamped along the bottom edge all in black. Strapped a sentiment strip across the stems and wrapped the handle with a Baker's twine double bow.
An added touch... a second sentiment tucked into the stamped pattern. As you will notice in tomorrows blog post, this is the card that started my black ink themed creative kick. So stay tuned. :)
Well, that's all I've got for you today. Just remember... everything you've seen peek of today will be available for purchase through Papertrey Ink, beginning November 15th.
