Let's Coffee!

Who couldn't use a nice tall glass of iced coffee to start their Monday off? Especially when it's the first day of Summer too!

I made another card for the Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop...



This time I used Coffee Town from Sweet Stamp Shop!


For the background, I stamped the "COFFEE" stamp in versamark ink on Kraft cardstock after drawing lines in pencil to keep things straight!  I die cut the stitched circle- it's the largest tag from Lawn Fawn's Stitched Circle Tag dies, I just trimmed off the hanging tab. I stamped the same 'COFFEE' sentiment and added the iced coffee cup Cuppa Coffee (also Sweet Stamp Shop) colored, with copics, an ombre effect to look make it actually look like coffee and topped it off with some glossy accents. (The 'lets' is from It's Your Day stamp set by Hero Arts.) Finished off my card by adding some white faux stitching after mounting everything together and called my card done!

Thanks for stopping by! Planning to get some more (at least one more) coffee card in during my kids' naptime today! :)

Strumming Hello!

Happy Weekend crafty friends!

My last card certainly got the wheels turning in my brain on what to make for another #craftchella2016 card! Also with the sad tributes for Prince popping up all over, I definitely had music on my mind :(..

While digging through my stash finding stamps to use for my punk rock girl card, I found these two stamp sets and thought they would go perfect together- can you spot them?



Figure it out?  I'll give you a hint- I used 2 Lawn Fawn stamp sets for the guitar...

Ok, I used the round pizza from Pizza my Heart for the guitar center and Schoolhouse Backdrops for the frets and the guitar neck!

I also used circle die cuts as a guide for the guitar body shape. Colored with my trusty copics, I pieced the sentiment using Hero Arts (All Occasion Messages, Thoughtful Messages) and Sweet Stamp Shop's Lower Script.

#craftchella2016 was so much fun- great way to STRETCH your stamps and to use them in more ways! Thanks for the inspiration Sandy!

I Love You & Coffee

Ok, back again (last time... for today!) Post #3 for me!

I'm just having too much fun with all these coffee cards! Surprisingly, at least for me, this is probably the most I've been able to participate compared to the previous hops!



A few weeks ago, I had colored this awesome coffee pot from Sweet Stamp Shop and stuck him on a little tag - my favorite one from Pretty Pink Posh (posted to my instagram) and finally managed to put it on a card! I found some cute Fall patterned paper scraps in my stash and made this card pretty simple.



OK.. so I think that's it for me this time around for entries for the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop! (have you SEEN all the fabulous sponsors????) But it IS still early in the week...

Thanks for stopping by!
