2016 Winter Coffee Lovers Bloghop & MIM #269: Embossed & Outlined Backgrounds

The Winter Coffee Lovers Bloghop started Friday- and today was the first day I had time to get something ready to post! Yikes!
Betsy shared a fun technique for MIM & I've put it to use here:


Snowflakes from Two Feet Deep & Mug from Warm Happiness too were added to a PTI tag. I love that red patterned paper! It's from an old DCWV stack. The technique was to add outlines with copics- but since I'm not a copic girl I put my zigs to work. I also used delicata gold ink for the gradient look at the top. 


Thanks so much to Amy & her crew for pulling together another amazing hop! So many awesome sponsors & inspiration!

Speaking of sponsors, The Heart Desires Store is offering a discount during the hop!

ETA: Random.org chose 3 winners! (15, 56, 3)

    I love your tag!! It really appeals to me because like you I am not a big copic skilled user either and you used Zigs to give the snowflakes depth. Thank you for sharing

    Such a cool background, I love your color choices, especially how it makes the coffee cup pop off the background!
