It had been a little while since I played with this A Little Latte Designer Series Paper. It’s so much fun because you can make little coffee scenes with it. Every sheet has something to do with coffee except maybe a plaid and a stripe. There are even patterns that look like coffee spills and coffee beans! This A Little Latte Hello There Card came about from looking through the designer papers and deciding on combining these two patterns.

The card base is Pecan Pie. You can use Early Espresso with this designer paper also, but I liked the lighter brown. I chose these two patterns for this card. The Calypso Coral paper with coffee beans gives a place to set the coffee cups. The two coffee cups are just cut out of one of the designer papers. They are easy to fussy-cut but there is a set of dies, the Latte Love Dies, that you might like to have. The little blue latte cup I glued down flat on the card and the yellow one I popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

For the greeting, I chose one from the Latte Love Stamp Set. I stamped it on Basic White in Calypso Coral ink and then diecut it with one of the label dies in the Unbounded Love Dies. These are coming in the new Stampin’ Up! Catalog on May 1st. To help the greeting stand out better without a layer, I just sponged on some Calypso Coral ink around the edge, just a very narrow border around the greeting. Then the greeting is popped up on Dimensionals.

For some embellishment, I used the Adhesive-Backed Swirl Dots that come in the A Little Latte Suite Collection. Of course, you can buy each product separately, but if you want it all, just put in the one item number for the Suite and you get everything! If you are a coffee-lover, you probably do want everything in this Suite!

You’ll find all these Latte products in the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusives!
