I have been meaning to enter a challenge at A Blog Named Hero, I have so many Hero Arts Stamps & dies, and should be using them! I have purchased a number of My Monthly Hero kits and one of my favorite is the recent August 2018 kit. This kit is all about coffee and it was an absolute no-brainer for me to buy it.
I decided to enter the Monochromatic challenge using all shades of brown to make a coffee card. Two beautiful papers were included in the kit, so I decided to use them as the background for my card. Included in the kit was embossing powder that puffs & expands once you heat it! It looks so much like foam!
One final touch was using some adhesive cork that I had in my stash. I punched out a few hearts from the cork and die cut a border out of the cork sheet. I have never used cork on a card before, but I plan to do it again soon- it adds quite some texture & dimension!
Thanks for stopping by!

Very nice! I love that kit too. I like that you used the paper from the kit for the background and what a nice monochromatic look which works great with coffee.
