I Love You a Latte

Happy Wednesday!

This week I decided to make a card for Valentine's Day using one of the older sets from the Coffee Talk Collection.

The cup and spoon are stamped with black ink and embossed with clear powder. The "I Love You a Latte" sentiment in the swirl is heat embossed with Red powder. All three pieces have matching dies so you can place them wherever you want and "pop" them for dimension.

I colored the flowers on the cup using Stampin Up markers and a Blender Pen.

Be sure to visit the Heartfelt Creations' Blog to see all the beautiful creations by the designers this week!

I'm submitting this to the following challenges:
