Mojo Monday #400 - Coffee Lovers Blog Hop

I am playing along with Mojo Monday today, where Julee is celebrating her 400th sketch!  I decided to team it up with the Summer Coffee Lover's Blog Hop, since Verve's coffee stamp sets are among my favourites.  Here's what I came up with:

 I had a great time putting this together... I started by clear embossing the Coffee sentiment repeatedly on a piece of watercolour paper, and then used two different brown distress inks to add my watercolour background (it's supposed to look like spilled coffee, get it?)  The dark grey/aqua blue/brown colour combo is a little different, but in person it looks quite amazing!  Here's a different angle to show the mocha sparkles a bit better:

 I used a Verve Plain Jane stamp for the inside sentiment:

For her 400th Mojo sketch, Julee went back to her very first sketch from 2007.  I used a little creative license with it, but hopefully you can see the corner element and word background in my card!

Be sure to check out the rest of the hop on the Coffee Loving Cardmaker's blog - it's always inspiring!
