\n<\/a>I had a lot of fun making this one. I used the greeting<\/span> <\/a><\/b>as background & stamped it over & over in white then heat embossed it in white powder. I know a lot of people will use clear ink\/white or black powder or else white or black ink &amp; clear powder, but in my experience, I get a much better, clearer result (especially when using black) if I use the same color ink & powder. Just my 2 cents…well, w\/ inflation it’s probably a dollar now.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

So after it was all embossed, I sponged on inks from a Kaleidacolor rainbow ink pad called Cappuccino over most of it. Then I stamped the coffee cup<\/span><\/a><\/b> on a separate piece of white & sponged it w\/ the same colors. The band was done again, masking it & stamping w\/ the argyle pattern then cut & attached on top. Since the greeting was all over the bg, I made a little flag w\/ just the die cut letters Coffee on it.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span>Here’s a look at the inside.<\/span>
