Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog Hop Fall/Winter 2021 ~ Coffee - my happiness

 Hey guys, thanks for stopping by today!  Today I'm here doing a coffee themed card for the Coffee Loving Card makers Fall/Winter Blog Hop 2021!  

I'm here with my 11th and final card so far this amazing Coffee Lovers hop!  This week went by super fast and I have had a blast hopping along!

I just want to thank all the Super Sponsors who are so AMAZING and GENEROUS. I also want to thank Amy T. for always working so hard behind the scenes to make this blog hop go off without a hitch!


Now on to this sweet, simple card.  I am obsessed with this COCOA VANILLA Collection _ THESE DAYS.  I've only made one layout with it so far so any chance I have to pull it out and play with it I will!

To find the papers, stickers and floral ephemera and sticker phrases that I used head over to Piece Craft Love and look at the entire collection and the SPECIAL BUNDLES she has put together!

thanks for stopping by,

Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog Hop Fall/Winter 2021 ~ Make Today Amazing

Hey guys, thanks for stopping by today!  Today I'm here doing a coffee themed card for the Coffee Loving Card makers Fall/Winter Blog Hop 2021!  I hope you are having as much fun hopping along as I am creating and hopping!



I'm here with my 10th card so far this hop!  I just learned on Wednesday that I won a prize from Impress Cards & Crafts!  I'm so excited and thankful for Impress Cards & Crafts for being a SUPER SPONSOR this year!

Now on to this sweet, simple cards.  I started off with an A2 card base.  I cut a white card stock down to size for the top panel and I inked it with Tim Holtz Distressed Ink in TATTERED ROSE.  I then sprayed a little water to activate it.

The side border is from my older stash...I used 4 layers and adhered it down to the side of the card.  I then reached into my NEW stash from Piececraftlove.com and pulled out a mini sticker tablet from CARPE DIEM and found these tiny coffee cups and knew I had to use one!  

I pulled a clipboard with the word TODAY on it, some black and white flowers, 2 different color hearts and a word strip that says MAKE TODAY AMAZING.  I also found this cute heart arrow.  I put 2 tiny banners below the word strip and I was done!

This was a super easy card to make!  Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and checking out my 10th card for the COFFEE LOVING CARDMAKERS BLOG HOP!

Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog Hop Fall/Winter 2021 ~ But first Coffee

 

Hey guys, thanks for stopping by today!  Today I'm here doing a coffee themed card for the Coffee Loving Card makers Fall/Winter Blog Hop 2021!  I hope you are having as much fun hopping along as I am creating and hopping!

Wow, I think this is my 9th card now!  I'm on a roll this year!  I think the most cards I've done on the Fall/Winter Blog Hop was 4 so I'm just so excited to be doing this again this year🙌

I used 2 different stamp sets for this one.  The first one I grabbed was the one I actually one for the Coffee blog hop a couple of months ago from JOURNALS FOR LIFE.  I love their stuff!  I was so excited to get this set!


I started off with an A2 card, I reached into my 6x6 paper pads and pulled out DESIGNER PAPER ~ CARNIVAL with those really awesome checkered pattern of colors!  I then reached for a paper from WE ARE MEMORY KEEPERS called ANTIQUE CHIC.  I fussy cutter the top of the paper and adhered to to the top of the card.  I also die cut a tag from the same piece of paper (with journaling lines).  

I stamped the Sentiment from the JOURNALS FOR LIFE in Wendy Vecchi Permanent ink in FERN GREEN.  I then stamped the coffee cup with the whip cream (old stash, and I can't remember where I got it...but I do love the saying😉)  I used Tim Holtz Distressed Markers in FOSSILIZED AMBER and LUCKY GLOVER.  I added some sparkle from my glitter brush marker in CLEAR SHIMMER.

I had the calendar in my stash so I adhered it down on the card panel, added foam dots to the sentiment and added thread to the tag and adhered it all down.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you are enjoying the Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog Hop as much as I am!

Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog Hop Fall/Winter 2021 ~ Coffee is Always a Good idea

 

Hey guys, thanks for stopping by today!  Today I'm here doing a coffee themed card for the Coffee Loving Card makers Fall/Winter Blog Hop 2021!  I hope you are having as much fun hopping along as I am creating and hopping!

Today I am using a stamp from the JOURNALS FOR LIFE coffee stamp set called BUT FIRST COFFE.  I actually won this stamp set on the last blog hop a couple of months ago and I love it!  I must say, I'm not good with coloring my stamps but I gave it a go.

First I cut  a woodgrain background to fit my A2 card and then die cut another frame in a cream colored card stock to use as the top card.

I stamped the coffee cup and saucer with those beautiful flowers on white card stock.  I then I stamped the heart shaped "cream top" with more flowers on top to give it a fancy look like the baristas do at the coffee shops.  I fussy cut it, colored all of it in (using lots of different colors) and I popped it up on foam dots to give it a bit of dimension.

I then stamped the beans (I mean how cute are they) and the spoon on the side of the saucer.  I stamped teh COFFEE IS ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA sentiment above it.  I added a little heart "candy" from another stamp set beside the cup, added my Nuvo drops in AUBURN PEARL and adhered the panel to my A2 card.

I used the following Tim Holtz Distressed Inks: WORN LIPSTICK, FIRED BRICK, LUCKY CLOVER, SCATTERED STRAW, ANTIQU LINEN, TEA DYE, TATTERED ROSE and WALNUT STAIN.


Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today!  Now it's time for some coffee ;)
