I found this super fun set on clearance and couldn't wait to play! The set includes stamps, embossing folder and dies. Once home, of course, I wanted to use everything in the set!!
I stamped my Clearsnap Color Box 4-color ink pad on my craft mat and picked up the color with a q-tip then gently sponged ink on the raised cups from the embossing folder. It was very relaxing! I created a colorful coffee cup by stamping with two of the bright inks then sponged on more color.
This card includes the fun memory of having one of my daughter's friends over while working on this. He was a hoot! I don't think I have ever laughed so much while making a card.
TFL!!!!

So pretty. I like how you took time to color the cups on the embossing folder background. Also great to hear you have a fun guest. Nothing beats laughing and stamping.

I didn't know that was an EF, Angie. How creative to use a q tip to color the cups. very creative. Your sponging is a grand slam too. You were out of the park with this one, girl.
