My Friend just became a Disign Team Member...so this card is made for Brown Sugar Challenge #268 "Back to School" theme, combined with Try Stampin' - or not - On Tuesday Sketch Challenge #339.
It took me a lot of thought and time on how I was going to do Back to School card to include coffee. Since I wasn't coming up with any ideas just went to my stash and pulled an image that was already cut, colored and trimmed up the fuss-cut. Next I had purchased a stamp set at a scrapping flea show over a year ago and never used and there was an apple on it. First and last time that stamp will be used, it just crumbled apart. I was on my way and just cut pieces, of design paper from "Magical" paperpack, according to the sketch and it was starting to come together. CTMH Artbooking had a "First Day" die cut.
Thought I was finiished but remembered there was a challenge going on with an inspirational picture of a basket of apples "Paper Sweeties". I didn't have any of their stamps on the card, but did remember I had some crayons and paint brush stamps. So stamped, colored, and fussy-cut. And the sentiment on the same stamp set was perfect.
Now I had to put it all together...that was the easy part because The Outlawz asked for 3 pop-ups and these items were perfect...adhered with different thicknesses of 3D foam tape to give it a lot of dimension as you can tell from the pictures below.
The inside of the card stamped on the border "Back to School" and added a strip of Design Paper
