White Rose Crafts September Sketch Challenge: You're Cool Beans

Hi Crafty Friends,
I am so EXCITED to be on my 2nd month of Guest Designing for White Rose Crafts! I'm here with another FUN sketch challenge! This month's theme is fall and what goes better with cooler weather than hot coffee? I used fall colors for this fun cup, I hope it warms your heart and brings a smile to your face. Please join the fun HERE.

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: What is your favorite fall coffee flavor?
A: Me? I like warm vanilla stevia in my dark roast coffee


I used a fun fall paper pack from Pink and Main called Pumpkin Spice. White Rose Crafts has so many cute fall paper packs you can find them all here. I added a brown polka dot ribbon for the diagonal stripe. I die cut the circle from a stitched circle die. I finished my card stamping the steam from the cups, the coffee bean accents and the sentiment.

I wanted to get you inspired for the SEPTEMBER CHALLENGE:  SEQUINS & SPRINKLES with this fun candy card using Sweet Candy Sprinkles and 3mm Clear Confetti Dots!
I started my card by creating the candy pieces using a Kat Scrappiness Stitched Circle Die and cutting out three circles.
Next, I added my Kat Scrappiness Acetate sheet to the back of the panel and added foam tape around each circles so that they would each be their own shaker.

 I die cut the little wrappers using the Kat Scrappiness Stitched Flag Dies in two sizes using pink and white vellum.
 I added my sprinkles and sequins to the centers and put my panel on my base. Then I glued the little flag dies on the edges of the candy pieces to look just like wrappers.
 I finished my card by stamping the sentiments on my panel and drawing the smiley faces on my candy!
