I am loving the new Latte Love bundle and it has been so fun creating with it this week.  The cups and mugs were cut from the A Little Latte DSP.  The coffee beans were inked in Early Espresso ink on Pecan Pie CS.  I used some of the Polka Dot Trim at the end of the label.  The trim is pretty thick  and somewhat stiff so it works best for me  as an accent.  Once again I reached for the Opaque Faceted Gems from Sale-A-Bration instead of the Adhesive-Backed Swirl Dots, which would have been so cute on this card.

This fun fold is a combo between a book binding fun fold and a Z fold.   The scoring of the 4-1/4" x 11" card base is 2-1/8", 4-1/4" and 5-1/2".  The extra piece that makes the "Z" is 3-1/4" x 4-1/4".

This is how the card opens . Inside I added a few more coffee beans like the ones on the front.

The sentiment is from the Sending Love stamp set.   We have been staying on St Simons Island, GA for the past couple of months.  I brought just a handful of stamps with me and no Stampin' Write Markers.   The only miss you sentiment I had with me was the one in the Sending Love stamp set.  The problem is that the I Miss You is in the center of a circle of other words.  Since I didn't have a marker with me I die cut a circle on a post it note and placed it over the other words around the I Miss You and carefully inked the words I wanted.   Next year I am going to make sure to bring a set that has a lot of sentiments.  

Be sure to check out all the stops on the hop!
