Frappe just for you Card - Tim Holtz Sizzix FreshedBrewed - HoneyBee TreatYoSelf

Got my Mixed Media groove on and got inky with making this Frappe Card. Was inspired by Lisa Schneider-Golzbein & Nichol Spohr and you can watch Nichol's video here: https://youtu.be/UPB_CckoXl0. Used Tim Holtz Sizzix Fresh Brewed die along with Distress Inks. Used acetate for the cup plastic lid. Did not have Snow Marker for whipped cream look so I used white paint. Used shimmer pen Toffee droplets to resemble Caramel Ribbon Crunch Frappe drink that is a Starbucks fav of mine. Used more shimmer pen Toffee droplets for splatters. Used Honey Bee Stamps for sentiment.
