Perfect Blend

It's time for a new challenge at Addicted to CAS and it is one that I know many of you will love. :)

I myself do not drink coffee, nor do I like the smell of it, but I do LOVE the Perfect Blend stamp in the annual catalog, so I had something to work with! lol

I could not get a good photo with my normal backdrop, so I opted for a Strawberry Slush backdrop instead. It wasn't until I had my photo all edited that I realized the cardstock looks white instead of Very Vanilla!  Oh, well, you get the idea!  I thought the splatters from Gorgeous Grunge looked like coffee grounds when stamped repeated, so I embossed them in Early Espresso embossing powder to make them really stand out.  No Embossing Buddy needed here because I WANTED the extra little splatters!  The coffee cup is stamped on three different colors and I cut the pieces apart and assembled them, with the lid on some Dimensionals for a little pop.  Even though I don't like coffee, I sure think this is a cute set! :)
