Cup of Joe with Rachel Vass Designs

Hello everyone!  It's New Release Day at

Rachel Vass Designs

Cup of Joe




This is another fabulous design from Rachel! My card for this is really working with the patterned paper I chose.  It's called Coffee Lovers from Unity Stamp Company.  To begin, I laid out my design in the computer.  I used a standard shape and then dropped in my sentiment twice.  I then cropped each of the sentiments...one for each half and then placed them within the heart shape.


I splattered the image with brown watercolor and then cut it out leaving a very narrow
border outside the line.  I made my card base out of the same kraft card stock and made it
into a side folding A2 size and then cut a panel of the patterned paper to 4" x 5 1/4".


It was looking a bit plain around the edges, so I added dark brown mirror peel-offs from
Love From Lizi.  Just that very narrow band of brown just sets off that panel.


Before adding my stamped image I decided to add a few coffee beans.  I have a small
cluster of beans stamp in my stash so I stamped that several times on my heart.
I colored them in with a Copic marker - E37.


I adhered my heart panel to the right hand side of the card, off-setting it about 1/4".  I
trimmed off the excess and my card was done!


This was such an easy card to make.  I love letting the patterned paper really project
my image!  

You can find this stamp and many more at Rachel's Etsy Shop:


Thank you so much for your interest in my cards!  I'm so glad you stopped by!
