Coffee Lovers Fall/Winter Blog Hop 2025 - Autumn Blessings

Hey guys I'm here for one last coffee themed card for this years Fall/Winter blog hop.  I sure hope you were able to head over there and participate or at least find some great inspiration.  Here is a link just in case you need some caffeine inspiration for the new year!

I was on Pinterest earlier today and I saw a coffee card which inspired me to do this one. I don't know about you but when I'm stuck I always head over to Pinterest.  

I started off with an A2 size base card from my favorite coffee themed 6x6 paper pack from Brass and Bliss.  I then cut a smaller piece to lay over my base.

I pulled out my favorite to go coffee cup die from La La Land Crafts...if you haven't discovered them you need to head over there they have the coolest dies and stamp sets.  Their Design Team is AMAZING and come up with the most creative cards for their most popular Marci stamp!  

I die cut the to go cup out of some really cute autumn inspired pattern paper I had in my stash.  I then cut the lid and center of the sleeve in a 110# white card stock I have and then cut the sleeve out of some craft card stock.  I crabbed a Fall stamp collection I had and stamped the Autumn Blessings, inked the edges and put all the pieces together.

I just got these cute pumpkin dies from Amazon and die cut them in the same craft card stock I had.  I inked them with some carved pumpkin distressed ink and used inks from CTMH (I sure miss them) for the stem.

I wanted to bring down the white to balance out the card so I cut the swirly stems out of the same white card stock I used for the lid.  

I have a lot of leaf dies...I don't know how I accumulated so many but they are all different sizes so I'm not made that I have them all.  These smaller ones were perfect to use for the fall leaves falling around the cup.

Well that's it.  It feels like this years hop went by so fast!  Thanks so much for hanging out with me all week for this coffee fueled hop.  I hope I was able to inspire you to pull out those dies and stamps and make a card to brighten someones day.

Stay crafty,

Coffee Lover's Fall/Winter Coffee Hop - You Make Getting Old Look Good

Hey guys I'm up on the blog with yet another Coffee themed card fro the Coffee Lovers Fall/Winter Blog Hop 2025.  Here is a link to check out all the fun and you have until The 14th of November to join in and take advantage of some great sales being offered by the SUPER SPONSORS! 

I pulled out one of my newer coffee themed stamp sets I picked up on Amazon...yeah, you get what you pay for.  This was an inexpensive stamp set and super cut but the stamp quality...meh.  But like I said it is super cute and I have been having fun with it.

I started out with an A2 size base from one of my favorite paper pads from Brass and Bliss (love them!) called Java Good Time.

I then stamped the image and grabbed my Copic Markers and did some coloring and shading (still trying to get the hang of that shading thing).  After I finished her up I pulled out a wonky stiched die set and die cut her into a circle.  I also grabbed another circle of the wonky dies to make the black border around her to make her pop.

The sentiment came with the stamp set so I stamped it and used the same wonky die set cutting another black border to keep it cohesive.  I adhered it all down, added some bling and I was done.

Thanks for hanging out with me today.  I hope I inspired you to pull out those stamp and dies and put a smile on someone's face by making them a handmade card.

Have a crafty day!

After I downloaded her image and printed it out I grabbed all of my Copic markers and went to town.   I wanted to pull the blue from her eyes and create an accent for the paper colors in her cup.

I fussy cut her out and crabbed a few dies , popped one of them up on some foam tape for some dimension and well that's it.  Easy peasy and I'm not going to lie, I do like the color combos.
