It's National Coffee Day and I'm thrilled to share this card that represents my favorite season of the year and my favorite life sustaining beverage! This day was made for me! I'm sure many of you feel the same so, yes, I will share this day with you as well, haha!
This card features the Fall Breeze stamp set from Sweet n Sassy Stamps and has quickly become a favorite of mine.

If you follow me on Instagram, I frequently share my coloring and tips along the way. If you hop over there, you'll see the beginnings of my color choices for this card and how my followers influenced my color choices!
Here's a bonus tip: I chose to create a white rim around the top of my cup. Just use a light color and draw a line with your Copic Marker from one side to the other. I used my lightest yellow marker. Just make sure it's a color that will easily blend in with the other colors you're using.
I kept the same color scheme throughout this project, blending with my Copic markers. I even did a little stamp surgery on the flourish that's stamped randomly. Yup, I cut my stamp in pieces. It will still stamp beautifully when I piece it back!
Let me mention, that when I stamped these images, I wanted a more muted tone, not a harsh black. It really makes the leaves look more natural, if that's possible! My absolute favorite brown is a hybrid leather colored ink that I use allllll the time. It's a great earthy tone and really helps bring your colored images to life. Hybrid inks are a must for me when coloring with Copic Markers as I have no issues whatsoever with bleeding.
There's a lot happening today, including a blog hop over at coffeelovingcardmakers.com that celebrates this day. Stop on by and visit my peeps, leave comments along the way and maybe win a prize!
