Coffee Lover Ghost
October 13, 2024
Who wouldn’t love to have a cup of coffee with this cute little ghost? I know I would.
I really wanted to use the coffee cup die as the backdrop on this card, but in order to do that, I had to reduce the ghost to about 1.5”. When I printed the ghost, I also printed the sentiment that I had typed for the cup sleeve.
I used a printed paper for the coffee cup and the background. The sleeve and lid are cut from a cardstock that I got years ago that has a mottled gray color. I wish I could find more of it, but all I remember is that I bought it at Michaels.
I used Salty Ocean Distress Oxide Ink to touch up the edges of the cup, sleeve and lid.
For the coloring on the leaves, I used Distress Oxide Ink in different fall colors. I used a small stiff brush to stipple and blend the colors on the mottled cardstock. I used the leaves from Lawn Fawn’s Fall Leaves Backdrop die to cut the leaves out. I arranged them as the base of the cup and then put my little coffee friend on top,
Since I had shrunk down the ghost so much, there wasn’t a lot to color. I used Copic markers for the coloring though.
Sometimes I worry that my colors are too bright, so this was an attempt at doing
something with more subtle colors.
Thanks for reading the process of making this card. I hope you have a great day!
Sandy
