Used our sketch today, but did change the proportions a bit. Die cut the coffee cup and stamped with small red and white (pigment) hearts on the kraft portion of the cup. Added stickles to the red hearts for sparkle. Stamped the sentiment on the cozy, masking so that I could get 2 colors. Assembled the cup and sponged kraft ink on the edges of the white to define the cup more. Die cut my top panel with a stitched square die and added the red panel, embossed a white panel to put in the opening, added flags and a glitter heart, and assembled with dimensional tape for depth. Fun to make!

You are amazing, Maura. This design is just too sweet and so perfect for this challenge. Love the white and red together with your cut out. It reminds me somewhat of your 'hot pant's valentine card last year. Yes, I remember because I look at it all the time.
