Hey Newbies,
I'm here working on number 21 of my 365 Page Layout Challenge 2019 (and the lessons I learned). I will try to list everything I used below and try to link up to where you can purchase them if you happen to like any of them.
I decided to do a coffee card today! Those gals over at Coffee Loving Papercrafters FB group are so inspiring and it's all about coffee and I LOVE coffee!
This layout was pretty simple and quick! I started off with a digi download. If you don't know what a digi download is click here to read my blog about them. I found these cutie pies at Crafting Desert Divas website.
I downloaded them and then re-sized them, each a little different. The Christmas coffee cups on each side is ribbon that I got from an amazing haul from Joann's! I glued them down and had to lay them flat for a while because this ribbon is made of a burlap material so it was hard to keep it glued down.
After the ribbon stayed put, I cut a pice of brown card stock for the face of the card. I used some brown ink and went around the edges with my ink blending tool.
I had these awesome alphas that are actually black and gold(ish) in a weave pattern that matched well. I added 2 sticky brads, adhered the ginger girl and boy with foam dots to give it some dimension, then added the YOU WARM MY HEART stamp at the bottom (next to the...shall I say it...gingerbread cake😱).
Lastly, and here comes LESSON 1 for this layout, I didn't measure correctly! I had to improvise so I cut a strip from a border I had and placed it at the top. It had gold(ish) brown diamonds and it worked! So...DON'T FORGET TO MEASURE PROPERLY🤦🏻♀️
Well, there you have it...number 21 of my 365 layout challenge for 2019. Thanks for following along on my journey of 365 scrapbook page challenge that I am doing, and reading about the lessons I'm learning along the way!
Please join our FB page for more challenges and to share your layouts with the group or come follow me on IG!
Happy Scrapping🤗
