Thanks a Latte!

Hello! I hope you're all having a lovely week, just today to push through and then the weekend! Woo hoo! Phew, first week back - done! Here's a fun little card I made this week using loads of lovely bits of stash! I was lucky enough to win a stamp set from the lovely Claire at Waltzingmouse before Christmas so I chose this funky background set which I used to make the checkerboard pattern. I've got some lovely background sets but alays head straight for my patterned papers, so here I decided to combine both! Then I made the fun sentiment using a combo of different stanps - I made the 'a' of the sentiment by using the Dad stamp from the set but masking off the D's!
I'm really happy with this card, I've realised that although I love the completely clean and simple look, it's much more of a struggle for me and this is what I feel happiest with, lots of clean lines but a few more layers! :-)
That's all from me, I hope you have a great weekend, thanks for popping by!
