Thinking of You Cups

Here's a quick and easy (or what others also call clean and graphic) card that I made for the Papercrafts Clean and Graphic Challenge and Moxie Fab's Around the House challenge. Those gals really know how to make such fun challenges.

I paper pieced the cups. To get a good cut around the handle, I had to cut them separately from the cup. I used my Quickie Glue Pen to glue those tiny pieces of paper. I can't believe how well they turned out - quickly and mess-free. I used to struggle getting a tiny bit of glue on those little pieces of paper, but now it's much easier with this glue pen.


Stamps: My Cuppa' Joe, Elegant Post (GinaK Designs)
Ink: Memento Rich Cocoa
Paper: GinaK Pure Luxry White, Eva by Basic Grey
Other: gingham ribbon, string, button

    Oh pretty Nina! It looks like a guy and a girl together, the purple one has her hair done. ;) teehee! I love CAS cards, I don't make them very well though. They look like I forgot to make a card. Yours, however, is just perfect. ;)
