Cup of Appreciation

We had a cozy beginning to our week with a bit of snow on President's Day. Hubby and I stayed indoors and enjoyed the holiday with hot chocolate and coffee, along with his first 

go at baking homemade french macarons. 

Today's card features Deep Red's cling "Flourished Latte" 

stamped with  Versafine Onyx Black Ink onto 

Authentique's "Suave" decorator paper.

I paper pieced the coffee and spoon on the coffee cup, then covered them with Glossy Accents.

After hand trimming the cup, it is layered with Thermoweb 3D Foam Strips onto a base that includes vine die cuts from JustRite's "Stitched Ovals and Vines." I glued the die cut vines to the base with a Sakura Quickie Glue Pen...perfect for the narrow pieces.

May Art's 1/4" Crochet Lace Trim borders the navy colored panel which reminds me of table runner crossing the front of the design.

The inside sentiment is from Stamp Simply's Clear "Many Thanks" stamp set. It is really so very handy as the sentiments are separate from each other and you can mix and match to say just what you want to say! In fact, I believe that you could mix and match sentiments from all of the Stamp Simply clear sets...the fonts all are beautiful and complement each other. Take a look at all of the sets available (you can purchase all four together HERE):

All linked supplies are from The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store.

Thanks so much for stopping by this week! 

Stay warm and enjoy the remainder of the week!
