SSINKspiration Coffee Cafe

Good morning!  I hope you enjoyed your weekend.   I know friends who are huge coffee drinkers and especially rely on their caffeinated drink to kick start the week so the SSINKspiration team is here to provide a little caffeinated kick start to your creative ideas by sharing projects that use the Coffee Café stamp set.  No you know I'm not a coffee drinker so you'll have to excuse the little bit of liberty I took in making a cold iced drink and then adding whipped cream at the top, that is an actual drink, right?  If not, it totally should be!!

I used Pear Pizzaz cardstock for the cardbase and then added two different pieces of the Coffee Break Designer Series Paper and then wrapped a piece of Garden Green 3/8" Stitched Satin Ribbon around the center.

To make the drink I started by stamping the cup on Pool Party cardstock using Early Espresso ink and then stamped the ice cubes in Versamark and heat embossed with the Heat Tool and White Embossing Powder before cutting it out with the Big Shot and coordinating Coffee Cup Framelits.  I did the same thing to make the foamy top and straw and used the framelits and Vellum Cardstock for the clear top.

The greeting is from the Birthday Delivery stamp set and it was stamped in Pear Pizzaz ink on Crumb Cake cardstock and cut out with the Big Shot and Stitched Shapes framelits.  I used dimensionals to attach both the greeting and the drink to finish off the card.

I love the color combination that DSP has and this card is so fun to help celebrate a special day.  Just wanted to give you a heads up, the retiring list for this years catalog is going to be released later this afternoon so you will want check back to see what's retiring as things will only be available while supplies last and we all know some things will sell out quickly (i.e. 2016-2018 In Colors, make sure you have your cardstock and reinkers all set).  Also when the retiring list is released some items will be listed at sale prices so take advantage of those while you can!
