Okay, now on with the Diva Dare. This month is all about threes, so the dare is to add three of something to your card or project. My card has a lot of trios on it, so let's get started.
Trios of coffee cups (from the One Cup set) stacked three high, three banners each stamped with the word coffee (from the Coffee set), a three lined sentiment (coffee... is always... a good idea). Three strands of linen thread tied around the card in a bow. I also stamped the word coffee on this card a total of 12 times for four more trios!
I started by stamping the trio of cups from One Cup three times (masking off the top cup to stamp each successive trio) on crumb cake, then coloring with prismacolor pencils. Next I stamped the hand-lettered coffee stamp and the always a good idea stamp from the Coffee set to the left of my stamped cups. I used the other coffee sentiments in the Coffee set to stamp on the three banners, then added some coloring to the hand-lettered coffees and some sponging all around. I finished with a bit of mossy meadow cardstock up top and some white linen thread tied in a bow. My layout is this week's tall & skinny Mojo 365 sketch.
