You Had Me at Aloe

Aloe everyone!  🙂  I’ve been away for a while and feel like it’s been ages since I typed a blog post. I hope you are all enjoying your summer.

Today I’m using new Posh Planters with coordinating Posh Planters Icons dies by Paper Smooches. I adore this set as it has a southwest theme, which I love. ♥

I first created a window by die-cutting a square from a block of card stock cut slightly smaller than my card front.  After determining placement of the mug, I stamped the cute sentiment with Tuxedo Black ink. I adhered this panel to my card front using foam tape, tucking a blue sky block behind the window. I adhered clouds, placing one just beneath the edge of the opening.

Copic markers – B23, B24, C2, E70, E71, E74, E77, G09, RV95, V91, V93, V95, Y17, Y19, YG03, YG06, YG09, YR15

I colored the mug with Copic markers (listed above) then die-cut and popped up on foam squares. I layered two triangles of green card stock and adhered beneath the mug. (Credit for the folded “cloth” goes to my very creative friend Amy Rohl.)
