Reindeer Games and Coffee Card

Hello and welcome! This is Shanna here today from Caffeinated Craftiness with a fun caffeinated holiday card!

I am a sucker for coffee related anything---and LOVE taking a non-coffee stamp and making it into one!  LOL. The small Reindeer just makes me smile....and I had a stray coffee cup die cut on my desk sooooo....  Ever had a crafty "AHA" moment!?!  LOL. This little guy is a ton of fun to color up, and he fits perfectly on my diecut!  I wanted to keep the card front pretty CAS, so I decided to add a little bit of interest behind my Reindeer Cup by repeat stamping the Coffee word stamp in dark brown ink in a random-ish pattern. This helped ground my image/die some and I love how it turned out.  

Since the front was pretty simple/CAS---I even decorated the inside some! *GASP*

I grabbed my absolutely most favorite Christmas sentiment stamp of all time and added it to a piece of cardstock matted on the same pattern paper I had on the cup!  The Merry Christmas Brush stamp is a timeless sentiment, and the fonts are sooooo pretty! I love how this stamp goes with ALL of my Christmas stamps! 

To Finish off the card I decided the Side Reindeer Sm needed to make an appearance on the inside of the card too! So I stamped him in dark brown ink straight onto the card base.  I chose not to color him because it keeps him part of the background in case my handwritten message gets too long or wordy LOL.

That wraps up my post today, see you all again soon!
