Hello! I am just now jumping on the wagon and joining Chaitali's Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.
I didn't know about it until it was on... then the weekend was so busy, I didn't have time to craft until yesterday evening...
So here is my very CAS card:
CRAFTING TIPS:
- I stamped the image with archival ink then water colored it.
- To make the smooshed background, I just painted brown water color on my craft mat with a paint brush, spritzed water on it and placed the water color card stock over it.
- The word was die-cut twice to add thickness to the delicate piece.
Thanks for stopping by,
Monika
