I created a CAS, black and white monochromatic card using Altenew Stamp Set, Craftin Desert Divas Die Set, Hero Arts Ink Pad, WOW! Embossing Powder, and Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L. All of them are some of the the amazing and generous Super Sponsors!!!

This card is very simple to make and quick. I simply added the metallic silver paint wash on a black cardstock with medium flat brush.

Once the paint dried, I stamped the cup from the Coffee With A Splash stamp set with the Unicorn Pigment Ink Pad using Mini MISTI. While the ink still wet, I sprinkle some of the Bright White Embossing Powder on it and heat set it with craft heater.

I die cut the black cardstock with Fancy Frame Dies and added it directly on the white card with E-Z Runner® Grand Adhesive.

I stamped the sentiment on a white cardstock using VersaFine Onyx Black, trimmed it into a sentiment banner with scissors, and I added it on the card with some 3D circle foam tape.

Here are the 2 cards that I created using the Coffee With Characters Stamp Set and Caffeinated Sentiments Stamp Set.

My first card is a shaker card. I die cut a piece of blue cardstock with Divitiny Designs Double Stitchs Ovals Dies, and then I used a piece of vellum paper for the window and for the shaker I use the fabulous Magical Expecto Patronum Glitter Confetti Mix.

I stamped the bubble tea cup, straw, lid, and heart with VersaFine Clair ink pads, fussy cut them with scissors, and then I colored them with Arteza Real Brush Pens.

I stamped the sentiments with VersaFine Clair Ink pads, too.

On my second card, I stamped the images on a white cardstock using Archival Mini Ink Pad set and then I added some London Fog FireWork Spray on it. And then I cut it with Divinity Designs Large Pennant Dies.

I wrapped around some natural twine ribbon on top of the pennant, and then I added it on the card with 3D foam tape.

I stamped the sentiment on a white cardstock, and then trimmed it into sentiment banner. I tied it up with the twine ribbon and secured it with small 3D foam tape so it stays in place.

I embellished the card with some more sequins from the same mix.
