Welcome to Freshly Made Sketches #575!
Although I would love to use a flower or butterfly in the circle element of this fabulous sketch from Clean Team designer Karren Johnson this week, the next birthday card needed from me is for my darling husband. Anyone who knows Stefan, knows that he is fueled by coffee all day, every day, which made it easy to pull out coffee based sentiments and images.
What you may not know is that I have a thing for woodgrain anything and my favorite travel coffee mug is a sweet woodgrain design from Nespresso. When I saw this wood paper sitting in my stash I had to replicate my mug. The one Stefan is pretty much forbidden to use because of his track record for forgetting travel mugs while out and about.
The wood paper (yes, actual thin wood) is cut with a Hero Arts Coffee Cup die and the MFT Perk Up sentiment added. I am fine with the image not stamping crisply as it reminds of a burlap printed coffee bag. A green panel is embossed with a Sizzix/Tim Holtz embossing folder, the MFT Coffee Order sentiment stamped on a kraft panel and the travel cup popper up over them.
I hope you check out the Clean Team designs at Freshly Made Sketches and play along with us this week!
Thanks for stopping by,
Jacquie
