Coffee Cozy and a Card

 I finally finished my first coffee cozy. I only bought the die about a year ago so I guess it was about time. I took the cozy to work today and used it with my first Pumpkin Spice latte of the season. I got lots of compliments on it so now I want to make lots more! This one was really simple, I just used the heart from the details die set (and the adorable matching heart tag but you can't see it in the pics), a button stacks die and some leaves but I can't remember where those are from now.

 

 

 

I also made my first card with the Beautiful Brushstrokes kit.  Oh my goodness, I don't really use flowers very much but I LOVE these. They are so easy, even when you are off a bit they still look great. I masked the flowers a bit to stamp the leaves. I was pretty lazy so I just tore up a paper towel. Probably not the best method cause it kept moving on me but I still got the effect.  I used a few rainstones, a sentiment from Keep it Simple Thank You and a little Wink of Stella in the flower centers. I can't wait to try watercolor with it!
