Fall Latte and Leaves Coffee Card

My quest for hastening Fall's arrival has begun. Today's card features the new Catherine Pooler stamp set "Fall Calls For Lattes". Scroll down for creative details and a little reminiscing. You'll find my shopping supply list at the end of this post as well.

 Fall is my absolute favorite time of year. Maybe it's because I miss Fall in upstate New York where I grew up. I have so many fond memories of raking leaves, the chill in the air, dressing up for Halloween and all the wonderful smells of seasonal cooking.





To begin, I stamped random patterns with the macchiato ink pad on mixed media paper. I use the Canson paper that you can find at Walmart or big box hobby stores, for watercoloring. Just press your ink pad on a craft mat and grab the color with a water brush.

It's best if you try not to over-saturate your paper. Have a paper towel handy for blotting. I generally will mix my colors as well, for added depth and gradient color. I used 4 different CP ink colors, listed at the end of this post, and used a white gel pen to get that highlight at the top of the apple. Gently swipe it downwards after applying. Once dry, watercolor over the highlight with more of the Catching Rays ink. You don't have to but it does tone it down a bit so the highlight doesn't look too unnatural.




For my cup, I did some masking with my mint tape, to create the cinnamon stick in the whipped cream. I used white puffy paint for the whip cream and sprinkled some brown embossing powder and copper glitter on top.

My sentiment was created with the help of my Misti stamp positioner so I could stamp with gradient color across the word "Fall", multiple times to achieve the look I wanted.

I also created an ink blended strip behind my cup and sentiment which is popped up on foam tape, along with my cup and sentiment.




I forgot to mention, I dipped the handle end of a small paintbrush into some gold paint and dotted all over my leaves for a fun mix of shimmer and dimension, as well. And, I added some watercolor ink splatters to the cardstock before die cutting my sentiment. That just about covers it. Got questions? Ask me in the comments.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Happy soon to be fall, Ya'll!
