It’s A Mug Hug

Glimmering Greetings

I’m super excited about the November 2020 Unity Stamp Company sentiment kit. Coffee and hot cocoa are two of my very favorite things. I just love this new mug with the whipped topping and couldn’t wait to get creating with it. I have lots of inspiration to share with you today.

Assemble This! Video

I’ve created a quick video tutorial on how this card was made.

Card #1

The Details

Oh the patterned paper in this card makes my heart go pitter patter. I love them layered upon each other. I used the sketch to create the base of my card and then switched out the heart for this yummy whipped topping mug. It could be cocoa, it could be coffee, it could be anything your heart desires.

I did a bit of Copic coloring using G21, BG34, R24, E31, and O. Stamped a fun holly jolly sentiment in the center and then popped it up with some foam adhesive. I love the whimsy and bit of color the navy enamel dots create in the end to finish it all off.

Card #2

The Details

Here is a different take on the same sketch and same stamp set. This time I used a sentiment in the kit for a birthday card. I love all the happy colors. The rainbows, the flowers and pretty colors. I used N1, R83, R85, B21, B23, and G21 Copic markers to color up this beauty.

It was fun to color in the whole mug this time and the sentiment layered beautifully against the colored background.

Card #3

The Details

I have a completely different layout for this card. I’m loving that scallop curve layered over the different patterned papers. I colored in the mug with Copics to look like coffee or cocoa this time using N1, R83, R85, BG01, E31, E35, E37, and 0.

It is a fun and different holiday card or could easily be a “just because” card to wish someone a Merry Day.
