ATC - Love You a Latte

Hello, everybody! It's Day 2 of the Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop and I will have a few coffee-themed projects to share today!  I'll share them in separate blog posts.

The first is an ATC, or artist trading card, measuring 2.5" x 3.5". ATCs are great to include in happy mail, and I also enjoy putting together nine of them to make a pocket letter.  If all goes well, then I should be able to share a completed coffee-themed pocket letter before the hop is over!  If you're curious about ATCs, you can read more about them here.


The stamp I used is a wood-mounted rubber stamp from Craftsmart which I received in a prize (thank you, Christina!). The sentiment and coffee cup are both on the same stamp.  I stamped on different scraps of cardstock for a colour-blocking style.  I doodled some faux stitching around the sentiment and added some punched flowers, a tiny punched kitty, two die-cut leaves, and a tiny gem.

I would also like to support the following challenges:
A Gem of a Challenge Three of Something (3 coffee cups) UE
ATC Around the World AG 1/3
Crafter's Castle AG Optional Share a Technique (colour blocking) 2/3 C10
Creative Fingers AG 2/3

Thank you for looking at my ATC! Wishing you a joyful day!

Adorable ATc, I love making them too, just entered a challenge with a trio I made for fun. I never thought of making them to tuck in with happy mail, or making them for a pocket card. Awesome.
