It is the first of the month already and so time for a new challenge over at Crafts Galore Encore. Our theme is always Anything Goes and this month our sponsor is Limited Runs Digital Stamps. I got to work with this sweet digi called Cuppa Mouse.
I designed the card in Silhouette Studio. I created a rectangle sized at 4.25×5.5 inches and then created an internal offset at 1/8 inch. I filled the inner rectangle with a paper from the Coffee Digital Papers collection by AMB Illustrations. Picking a color from one of the beans with the eyedropper tool, I then colored the outer rectangle to create the frame. I added the digi so that I could size it appropriately and also added the sentiment in Silhouette Studio. I removed the digi again, putting it onto another page so that I could cut it out separately from the background. I removed the cutlines from the inner rectangle on the background and the text, then printed it out onto white cardstock and cut it.

A gorgeous, cute card, Monica. xx
:-)) Great color selection. Cool background, coffee beans perfectly match this cup. And the pink color of the cup works great with the color of the coffee.
