Coffee is always a good idea - New Release - Hug in a Mug with Julia McNeil Designs

Hello everyone Happy Friday !

I hope that you have all had a great week and have something nice planned for the weekend. Today we are celebrating moving to Spain permanently 7 years ago so there'll definitely be a couple of glasses of wine this evening but for now its all about coffee.

I'm sharing a project today for JMC Designs as part of our Craftober challenge.  

It's October so that means it's Craftober and all this month over at JMC Designs we've been celebrating with a fabulous list of daily prompts to help inspire you to get creating.

I hope that you've been joining in but there's still plenty of time and you could be in with a chance of a prize from Julia...the winner will receive an A6 Stamp of their choice and a 30% discount off their next order!  

All you need to do is create a project following the prompt for the day, using JMC Designs products and upload this to the Facebook group album.  JMC's Crazy Crafty Hive  If you don't have any products yet there are plenty of Freebies in the group once you have joined for you to use.

Here is the list of daily prompts for you to follow and the link to the fabulous friendly.

 

Today the prompt is to create a 'One Layer Card' - One of my favourite styles and so easy to create something beautiful.

I've created  a very stylish one layer card using the coffee cup stamp from the Coffee & Chocolate stamp set.

It's a clean and simple card and would be great for lots of occasions, male and female I think.

I stamped the design and the sentiment from the stamp set using black ink and then applied teal foil to the heart on the cup using my Minc foil machine.  The design was coloured using my promarkers (see below for colours)

To finish off my card and tie in with the coffee theme, I blended distress ink around the edge of the card panel, under the coffee cup to ground the cup and then splattered the same brown ink for texture.

Even though its a one layer card I couldn't resist adding a little shine, adhering coffee coloured confetti around the panel before using a dark grey brush around the edge of the panel and adhering to my tent fold card base

I do hope that you like my card for today and I'd love it if you'd leave me a comment. 

Hasta luego 👋 

Enjoy the rest of your day !
