This is my card for HYCCT1401C "Hold Onto Your Hope" - to see something on your card that we hold on to daily -- a HANDLE.
I cut the coffee cups and colored with alcohol markers. I left the hearts (which is a part of the die) lighter than the cups for contrast. I masked the handles and stamped with VersaMark and heat embossed with white ep. I placed the hearts back into the negative space, taped them on the back and coated them with Glossy Accents.
The sentiment and the word 'hope' in the steam were computer generated. The steam is from SSS What's Brewing stamp set and was stamped with HA Soft Granite (stamped off). The white layer was cut with SB Celebration dies, which add the piercing, and attached to the base. The coffee cups are attached with foam tape, and I added some sequins because a girl's gotta have some bling!
As always, thanks for looking!

How on earth do you think these things up? This card is fabulous, Jody! I love how you created the cups even creating your won papers! The sentiment and the word hope from the cup is brilliant! I LOVE this!

Jody, I love this combination of colors, and the soft 'hope' in the steam! The hearts are such a cute addition to the die, and you set them off so perfectly. Thank you so much for playing along with my challenge and for supporting Hope You Can Cling To!
