30 Day Gratitude Challenge: Day 26

Good morning!  We're back home and were able to get back to miss a lot of the traffic heading home from the extended holiday.  One thing that's always needed for those long road trips is a little coffee to keep you away and focused so I decided to use the Merry Café stamp set to make this fun holiday themed thank you card for today's gratitude card.

I started with Whisper White Thick cardstock for the cardbase and then added a piece of Real Real Red cardstock for the cardbase and used the stamp set from the Merry Café stamp set to stamp the all over the cardfront using Real Red ink.  Next I took a piece of Christmas Around the World Designer Series Paper and matted it with Whisper White cardstock for a fun element.

For the main stamped image I stamped the coffee cup image in Basic Black on Soft Suede cardstock and the cup topper in Old Olive on Whisper White cardstock.  The greeting is stamped on Old Olive cardstock using a past Paper Pumpkin stamp set and I cut out all the pieces using the Big Shot and Coffee Cups Framelits.  Dimensionals were used on the lid to the coffee cup and the final touch was to add a bow using Basic Black Solid Baker's Twine.

This is such a fun card and definitely channels the love of coffee shared by so many.
