Next is a new set called My True Love Gave to Me. This is such a great set inspired by the classic holiday song. Even though it is a Christmas set, I thought it would be fun to show how you can use the images to make a romantic card. Change up the colors and this could be a Valentine card.

I stamped the coffee grinder on a piece of 2 1/4 by 3 3/4 inch Ivory cardstock and colored with Copic markers. I started with E59.
Added E37.
Had a few photos that didn't come out just before this one. I added E33 and E51. The on the tag I used N3 and N1.
On the top, I started with C3.
Then added C1.
I heat embossed the image with clear embossing powder to resist the ink from sponging, then sponged Memento Cantaloupe ink.
Sponged Memento Desert Sand ink.
Sponged Memento Rich Cocoa.
I stamped the coffee cup on a piece of Pure Luxury white and colored the spoon with C3 and C1.
Then started with E19 on the cup.
Lost another photo here. I added E15, then added E53.
Then added a little shading to the beans with E29. After coloring, I cut out the images.
I adhered the cup and beans to the background, using Pop Dots to adhere the cup. Layered with Pure Luxury Chocolate Brown and cut a scallop border using Spellbinders Big Scalloped Border Petites from Pure Luxury Pumpkin Spice.I added a little Crystal Lacquer to the coffee cup and beans.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Theresa, your designs are fabulous, as usual. I especially love the 12 Days of Christmas card, but the bean card is very attractive, too. Love your work!
Love the deep, rich colors of your latte card, T, and your true love card is gorgeous!
Amazing!!! Both of these are so gorgeous. Just love your work Theresa. I am always amazed at the free stamps and what beautiful creations they inspire. I loved the romantic card you came up with using the kissing doves. Summer wedding came to mind instantly. What embossing folder did you use on the background? Doesn't look familiar. TFS your talent.

Both so lovely. As always, your coloring and color choices are outstanding!

Another amazing set of cards!
Both of your cards are beautiful, Thersa, but I really am taken by the "thanks a latte" card. The sponging and highlighting give it the look of a painting. Gorgeous!
