COFFEE, YES PLEASE!

 YES IT'S COFFEE TIME! 
COFFEE, COFFEE, COFFEE!

You know, cappuccino, java, joe, mud, coffee, a pick-me-up; CAFFINE for goodness sakes!

You & I both know that there is nothing better than a good cup of coffee in the morning! Or in the evening for that matter.

Who doesn't get excited when thinking of coffee consumption!  

Am I right? I think I am! 

Sometimes I wake up thinking like this guy:

I mean, why not be excited about the java in your life!

These multi-pictured; showcased coffee card was made from several new products from #ThisCallsFor_Confetti (TCFC).

TCFC has a new stencil out named 'Coffee Time'.

They also have a *free* .png file of coffee sentiments that you will obtain once purchasing items from their website.  Consider using this affiliate link here: https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=2056671&u=2211065&m=126391&urllink=&afftrack=

Before using any stencil, I always put some Tombox Mono Multi Liquid Glue (because once it dries, it is repositionable {so to speak!},) around the bottom of my stencil so that the stencil stays in place.  I used Distress Ink cubes in the following shades: tea dye and walnut stain.

Next I applied the @shimmerzpaints hue named 'Tarnished Treasure'.

It has just enough sparkle and shimmer in it for a subtle luster. See below for what I mean :)

I sprinkled some splatters of both the inks and the Tarnished Treasure onto the panel. 

Additionally, I added a few more darker areas (using the distress inks and watercolors via a tiny paintbrush) for depth.  

Once the panel dried, the panel was popped up with TCFC's double-sided foam strips. 

The 'Coffee is better with friends' sentiment was added 

[from the free printable with purchase]---& this was popped up onto a foam strip too.

Lastly, I added the following TCFC blingy items:

Iridescent Dew Drops
Satin Chocolate Sequin Confetti
Satin Bronze Sequin Confetti 

to the panel with some Bearly Arts Glue.

Hope you are staying warm.  It is a cool 13 degrees here in my area of Texas.  To keep warm, I have been sipping on some coffee.  Yum and I sure hope I can fall asleep tonight!  Hugs to all my crafty creative peeps!

Love, LIZARD xoxoxoxo
