For this tag, I pulled out my stamps related to the "Coffee and Cream" theme! The stamps are from I Brake For Stamps. I wanted to create a "faux designer paper," which is a technique from the Technique Junkies, so I combined several of the stamps to create the background. The coffee grinder was stamped, cut out, colored and then clear embossed. I also did a little stamping on the coffee grinder. Added a little tag using Mr. Holtz tags and tickets die, stamped on some cream colored crinkle ribbon and finished it off with the cappuccino bakers twine! I even tied a successful bow!

I just found out that I was voted as one of the "Spotlight Artists" over at City Crafters Challege Blog for this!

HI Terry
Congratulations on being a Spotlight Artist!!!
Fabulous Fashionable DT sample. I so wish I had used my Oxford Impressions' Afternoon Tea set but time was against me for creating something in time (I already that my stamps all stamped up and stored for quick use)
Great composition and just so well thought out.

It's a good thing I have my coffee already made this morning or your card would have sent me into the kitchen. What a delightful card. The images are wonderful and your background is fabulous.
