Deedee's Challenge #3 Red-White- & Blue

This is a card I made for Deedee's challenge (Red White and Blue). This is a two pocket card. The coffee cup is from Deedee's digitals http://craftingwithdeedeesdigis.blogspot.com/. The name of the digi set is "Cuppa Love"(Very cute!) The cup was printed twice and colored with water color pencils/gamsol, then layered and shaped to give it a 3D effect. The coffee was done with copic E57 and colorless blender. I used crystal laquer on the coffee to make it look more like liquid (The photo doesn't show this very well). The roses on the cup are actually colored red, (the glitter kind of took the red down a couple tones). The papers used are from SU and DCWV summer stack.

This shows the two things that are in the pockets on the card front. The tag was cut and layered with the same papers from the front of the card. The flower and sentiment on the tag is a rub on from SU. I added glitter to the middle of the flower, and colored the petals with chalk and added red with a #R29 Copic marker. This can be used as a book mark for someone who loves to read. I found an image of the Starbucks card on one of their websites and printed it on Glossy Photo Paper. Too bad it can't be used....but it's the size of a regular gift card. When I give this card away I'll purchase the "Real Thing", or maybe Tim Horton's.

I carried the papers on to the inside of the card. The sentiment is also from Deedee's "Cuppa Love" digi set. There are several other sentiments to choose from in this set. Love the choices!
