A Few for a Couple

Good evening, All!  I've got a few cards for a couple of challenges, but I'm going to apologize right now (photos are not working for me in the evening photo sessions).  I played in a Christmas challenge recently, and now I've got the bug -- or at least at the moment!  These first two cards will be entered at the Twofer Card Challenge #21 Sweets:


My common element is the sweet latte in the holiday cup.  The card on the left is a holiday card, and the cup on the left is well.... for encouragement, so it will be entered at Time Out #146 Encouragement.  Here's a closer look at both but check out that shine, one with gold ep and the other with pearl paste!

    

Then while I was on a roll, I made a 3rd card with similar ingredients, still using the holiday cup...



A holiday card and a shaker.  You can't really tell but the frame is actually a gold shimmer cs, glitter red Stickles for the berries and a mixture of glitters inside.

     

Supplies:
   #1 - HA Coffee Cup Tags (NBUS, used in all 3 cards)
   #2 - MFT Blueprints 27, SSS Gingham stencil, MFT Hug In A Mug
   #3 - LI Stitched Rectangle die, MFT BP 27, MFT Hug In A Mug


This has been a photo-heavy post, but I wanted to get this posted and entered before I head out on vacation.  I'll be checking in with your blogs, but may not post since I won't have all of my supplies with me.  Thanks for stopping by, and hope your days are cozy, warm and cheerful!

Hugs,
TK

That is one gorgeous coffee cup, no wonder you wanted to use it on so many cards!! The pearl paste is stunning, so much shine and goes so perfectly with the kraft cardstock. And having the coffee up in black/white really makes the pattern on it pop. So very glad you shared this us at TIME OUT and hope you have a great holiday!!

Sorry I'm so late at commenting TK - family wedding and company just left! Your trio of cards is simply wonderful. I love the Christmassy theme you've used, and lest I forget, those latte cups look delicious. You've really captured the essence of the the Twofer Challenge here. Three completely different designs and all using that same yummy cup. So happy you joined us at the Twofer Challenge! xo Bev
