Designer coffee cup

Hi everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. This card was created for a friend who has a particular flair for collecting the coolest designer coffee cups. I specifically bought this set from The Angel Company (cup of love) due to both of the cool cups in the set.

I stamped it in Memories black ink and heat embossed using clear embossing powder. I colored it using Copic markers and a black glaze gel pen.

Labels 4 used to cut out the sentiment (TAC wonderful news set) and added some really cool new gathered black ribbon. You might have to enlarge the picture to see the details, but it's a fun ribbon.

The designer paper is from Carol Wilson that I got at a LSS over a year ago. I had this paper in mind when I colored the cup. Lovin how it turn out!

Thanks for stopping in and have a great day!
