KCC: #451, Lotsa & Lotsa layers!

Happy Thursday!  It's time for another Krafty Chicks Challenge, and this week's challenge twist is "Lotsa Layers" which just so happens to be my specialty! lol  I recently ordered some fun goodies from Kat Scrappiness and I couldn't resist this set called BUT FIRST COFFEE (by Echo Park)

This is a great set with fantastic sentiments!  I paired it up with Julee's Mojo sketch.  I really wanted the "open part" of the cup to have this floral paper but piecing it seemed like it'd be a pain so I tried using some black EP.  Several months back I'd seen Amy Tsuruta post something fabulous she made and she used WOW! Embossing Powder and their Clear Embossing pad, so I ordered some (I was in dire need of a good embossing pad!).  Holy snickerdoodles, it is the bestest (by far) Clear embossing pad!!  I stamped that cup on the floral paper with clear embossing ink and then added some black WOW ep… it covered those flowers perfectly!!

After stamping and embossing I was able to just cut it out and pop it up with dimensionals.  I just LOVE the pink & green color combo!  The paper pad is from Faith Illustrated (I absolutely LOVE their stuff!!!!).

Just look at that sentiment!  Is it not perfect?!?  lol

Whelp, that's all I've got for ya, be sure to check out what the rest of the Chicks have been up to,
