Caffè... Espressamente per te :)

È arrivato il momento del Coffee Lovers Blog Hop  edizione Primavera/Estate e vorrei partecipare.  :)
http://coffeelovingcardmakers.com/2019/05/2019-spring-summer-coffee-lovers-blog-hop-2/

I sacchetti in cui è confezionato sono lucidi ed hanno una stampa fotografica con i chicchi di caffè. Io non li butto mai (non vi stupite più, vero? :D  LOL ) perchè quei grani di caffè mi ispirano... e così li ho utilizzati per questa card.  ;)
Ho aperto il sacchetto e l'ho ritagliato...
e l'ho usato come "terreno" per il dolcissimo timbro digitale di SasayakiGlitter.
Ho colorato il timbro con i Promarkers, l'ho ritagliato a mano e l'ho incollato con il foam biadesivo su un cartoncino bianco sul quale avevo fatto un leggero smooshing con il Distress Ink Tumbled Glass.
La scritta "Coffee" l'ho generata al computer, mentre il sentiment "Espressly for you" è brand Unity. Li ho colorati con i Distress Inks (tecnica smooshing) e incollati su un avanzo di foam per dare dimensione.
Lo sfondo verde con i chicchi di caffè, sul quale ho incollato il mio topper, è fatto con uno stencil e il Distress Ink Vintage Photo.
Non ero soddisfatta di come era venuta la card, mancava qualcosa... Così ho deciso di darle un look più "rustico": ho bucato i bordi usando una matrice da ricamo e il tool per il piercing, ed ho cucito con un filo beige, senza essere troppo precisa. :D
 
Adoro l'effetto del finto cucito rustico con lo stencil: mi ricorda l'Africa, da cui il mio caffè proviene...
 :)
Con questo progetto vorrei partecipare ai seguenti challenges:

Buona Alice Alice,

La tua creazione è una delizia con la dolce immagine del riccio e dei chicchi di caffè.

Sono anche un vero amante del caffè e, ovviamente, un espresso. La mia macchina da caffè macina i chicchi e fa un bel espresso ogni monring. Non ho mai preso un tè o un caffè da quando sono allergico al latte, quindi non mi sono mai preoccupato. Poi un giorno a Venezia, seduto a San Marco, ho provato l'espresso e da allora sono stato agganciato.
