One Cup At A Time

 
Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share a card made using one of the stamps I purchased from Unity Stamp Co during one of their sales. These last few months have been really rough.  Between losing my mom, getting COVID again, bronchitis and a host of other issues, this Coffee is Not Enough perfectly sums everything up.

I started out by stamping everything in memento tuxedo black ink onto Copic X-Press It card stock using my MISTI© before coloring her up using Copic© markers. Once the coloring was finished, I lightly blended some Tim Holtz milled lavender distress ink around her to help lighten the white spaces before layering and adding brads.  As an afterthought, I ran a paper distresser along the edges of the bottom layer before adhering the image panel to a lavender card.  The only embellishments added were some purple sequins, silk flowers,lavender bling and a touch of white gel pen to her eyes. I'm pretty happy with how the card turned out especially with how I've been feeling.
