This card is for the Daring Card Makers coffee challenge. Where is the coffee? It's in the background. The background of this card uses the Aged Parchment technique from the TJ Newsletter, June '08 issue. And this technique uses coffee to stain the paper. The aroma while soaking the paper is out of this world! Personally, I don't drink coffee because my heart races too fast and my hands shake. But I love the smell of being brewed coffee. Anywho ... the bird images and sentiment are both from I Brake for Stamps. Stamped and embossed with Tim Holtz's distressed EP.
Until next time, may mojo live happily in your heart, and may passion bloom in your soul. Be well!
