Latte Love

 

This is another Latte Love card that I made but I was inspired by Erica Cerwin.  It uses Lost Lagoon, Basic Gray, pecan Pie and a Little Latte Designer Series Paper.  I used Latte Love Dies, Stylish Shapes Dies, Give It a Whirl Dies for the hearts, but I think the hearts from Heart & Hugs Dies would work.  I used Pecan Pie on the label and the splatters on the Basic White circle.  I then added Adhesive Swirl Dots.

Latte Love

 

This is another Latte Love Card and this time I used the Modern Oval Punch for the label.  The coffee cups are manually cut from the A Little Latte DSP, but not too difficult to cut out.  I was inspired by a card made from Kathy Bedell but changed it somewhat.  I used the retired Adhesive Backed Cork Rounds which I think goes well with this bundle, but you can also the Adhesive Backed Swirls Dots.  You can only buy this set Online.  It's not in any of the Stampin' Up! catalogs.

Stamp Set:  Latte Love

Cardstock:  Petal Pink, Pecan Pie, Basic White, A Little Latte DSP

Ink:  Early Espresso

Other:  Paper Trimmer, Paper Snips, Modern Oval Punch, Adhesive Backed Cork Rounds (retired) or the Adhesive Backed Swirl Dots, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Stampin’ Dimensionals

 

1.     The base of the card is Petal Pink cardstock cut at 5-1/2” x 8-1/2”, and scored at 4-1/4” in the middle.

2.    Cut the Pecan Pie cardstock at 5-3/8” x 4-1/8” and cut the A Little Latte Love DSP at 4” x 5-1/4” and 1” x 5-1/4”.

3.    Layer the A Little Latte DSP to the Pecan Pie cardstock.  Attach the smaller piece to the left side of the layers.

4.    Fussy cut two coffee cups from the DSP with the Paper Snips.
