What a perfect challenge, as this image is available from Treehouse Stamps TODAY!!!!
I stamped the image using versmark ink, after coloring the beverage part with my brown marker, and clear embossed. I believe I may have mentioned how much I love clear embossing. lol Then I used yellow stickles on the dots of the cup. And the opening is at the top with the scallop circle and velcro holding it closed. Isn't that creative? Well, it's only that way because I made the card UPSIDE DOWN! Duh! I hate it when that happens, but try to keep a smile on my face and look at it as a creative opportunity. lol Yeah, well . . . I do like it with the scallop circle holding it closed anyway. What do you think?

Super cute card! I love the embossed Tres Chic background and the bright little panels of DP! How very clever to make a top closure with the scalloped circle! I'll have to remember that trick!

I really like the embossed background. That stamp is perfect for embossing. The image is perfect for this challenge. I too have made a card upside down before. You turned it into a creative opportunity. Great job.
