Expresso My Thoughts

Crystal Thompson

Hi there! I am Jaded Blossom’s March guest designer! I want to start off by thanking y’all for stopping by my blog this month and showing some serious love during the March release blog hop. I have enjoyed this release so much, and hope you did too! Jaded Blossom’s designs are so cute, I just had to make this card!

This is a simple, and postage friendly card, and could be easily be made into a tags. The lovely images are from the Coffee Candies set and the sentiment is from Coffee Break set. (Hope you got the bundle, during release). Stay tuned for a pictograph!!

 OK, lets get started!

Start by stamping all your images into trimmed Copic friendly paper (alcohol marker friendly paper works too). Then using a round die cut or the bottom of a glass, pencil in your circle.
Using your gray markers shade the images placed on outer circle, and using a light gray marker color in the background. (Tip: erase your pencil markings at this point)
Color in your inner circle individual images. Remember to stay within your circle!
Color your inner circle. I selected the same color to shade in the circle to match the sentiment card stock. 
Trim your card stock and heat emboss your sentiment. 

Pretty simple, right?! I loved the way this turned out and the coffee’s from the Coffee Candies are adorbs. I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and I can’t wait to see what you make with Jaded Blossom’s March release of Coffee Candies and Coffee Break.
