Sip, Sip, Ahh!

 


Welcome. Lauren here today with this coffee loving bunny card. I love the smell of coffee and that first sip in the morning is pure heaven. I thought that the expression on this bunny from the Je t'aime stamp set reflects exactly how I feel about the smell of coffee first thing in the morning. Yum! I put this cutie into the brand new Coffee Shop Background to make this sweet card.

I started out by inking up and stamping just this one bunny from the stamp set onto white cardstock. I also stamped and fussy cut a mask for her using masking paper.

I placed the mask over the stamped bunny, then positioned the Coffee Shop Background stamp so the coffee cup would be directly below the bunny's nose. I made sure that I inked only the part of the stamp I wanted to show up on my panel.


I removed the bunny mask and colored the stamped images using Prisma color pencils. I also stamped my sentiment above the counter in black ink. On separate white cardstock, I stamped, colored and fussy cut a couple of hearts. Then I adhered them above the bunny's nose. 



Next, I created an embossed background for my coffee shop scene to sit on. I first prepared an A2 (4,25x5.5") black cardstock panel with the Cottontail Embossing Powder tool. This virtually eliminates stray embossing powder from sticking where you do not want it to. Then, I used embossing ink to stamp the small coffee bean from the Blended sentiments set and one of the hearts included in the Je t'aime set randomly over the cardstock panel. I covered the stamped areas with white embossing powder, returned the excess to my container, then heat set it. I trimmed this down a little so that a border of white card base would show once I adhered it.


I cut my coffee shop scene to my desired size, adhered a piece of self adhesive white foam sheet the same size and adhered it to my embossed background.
