Slimline Coffee Catch Up

Happy Friday! DT Annalisa here today, I’m excited to share a beautiful springtime slimline scene of friends catching up over coffee and croissants. I used the Café Critters stamp set and Skies The Limit Slimline Die from Time For Tea Designs.

 First, I die-cut white cardstock using the Skies The Limit Slimline Die. Then, I ink-blended the clouds with Salvaged Patina and Stormy Sky Distress Oxide inks using my Beautiful Blender Brush. I applied Saltwater Taffy, Squeezed Lemonade, Cracked Pistachio, and Shaded Lilac Distress Oxides for the rainbow.

I used liquid glue to adhere the scene outline and inside pieces to a slimline card base.

For the background, I ink-blended Lost Shadow onto a half-inch strip of white cardstock with the Tiled Wall 6 x6" Stencil. After removing the stencil, I blended over the panel with the remaining ink on my brush to fill in the white areas with a lighter grey. I then used double-sided tape to attach the brick floor to the card base.

I stamped and coloured several images from the Café Critters set using Copics, then cut them out with their coordinating dies. To add some detail, I used a white gel pen for accents.

Additionally, I stamped the 'Hey' sentiment from the Hey There Critters set and cut it out with its coordinating die.

Finally, I used liquid glue to adhere all the stamped elements to the card.
