Countdown to Confetti: Be a Barista!


Hello! I am SO excited to share a new sneak peek at some upcoming Reverse Confetti goodness today. I think this is my fave of all the projects I have to share for this release!

Today the crew are sharing a look at Be a Barista, from new illustrator Angelica Suarez. I LOVE this set. Coffee. Stamps. Two of my favourite things! 
  
I literally squealed when I saw this set for the first time. It has latte art images to stamp inside the cup!!! Oh, so adorable! I made a little gift bag to match my card that holds some chocolate covered coffee beans. Coffee, stamps AND chocolate?! Heaven!

I'm still head over heels for these Persimmon papers by Basic Grey. They had *just* the right feel for my warm coffee ensemble. As well as Be a Barista, I stamped a So Stripey pattern on my card base (then proceeded to almost entirely cover it - ha!) and I've used some the previously released Arrows 'n Elements to add some fun embellishment.

I paper pieced the cup, adding a little shading with a grey copic marker. 

Here's the inside of my card...

I love this sentiment! So fun to pair with the thanks a latte. These things make me happy! Here you can see the pattern I've repeated from the front of the card. I stamped the wide single stripe, followed by the graduated stripes. 

These little hearts are also from Arrows 'n Elements and they worked so perfectly with this sentiment. What do you say, one more look at the bag and card together?
