Welcome to the newest Make My Monday challenge, #169. Claudia picked the theme of food and drinks for this challenge. When you finish here, I hope you visit the challenge page to see all the other projects from the design team members. There’s always a wide variety of projects, and inspiration can be found in each one.
Here’s my food and drinks card:
What I Did:
- The Early Espresso base measures 5-1/2 inches by 8-1/2 inches, scored at 4-1/4 inches.
- The Pool Party cardstock layer measures 4-1/8 inches by 5-3/8 inches.
- Each of the DSP slanted pieces measures 5 inches by 3-3/4 inches. I outlined the Pool Party DSP with Early Espresso ink so it didn’t blend into the cardstock.
- While I had the DSP out, I trimmed a piece of the Early Espresso DSP to 6 inches by 2 inches for the envelope flap.
- After stamping the sentiment in Early Espresso, I cropped it using a die from the scalloped contours die set. Then, I cut an Early Espresso mat for it.
- I used some of the foam adhesive sheets on Early Espresso and cropped both words using the Love You More dies.
- The coffee cup and the cookies were also stamped on Very Vanilla cardstock and cropped using the Love You More dies. I stamped the coffee cup steam and cookies directly on the DSP.
- I adhered everything using multipurpose glue, except for the coffee cup and one of the cookies. For those, I used dimensionals.
Thank you very much for stopping by my blog today!
Have a Peachy Day!

As I was setting the publishing time for this post, I realized that today is Thursday. We had Monday off from work, so I’ve been running a day behind all week. Here I thought I was on time. I was wrong. My apologies.
