Coffee Lovers Fall/Winter Blog Hop 2025 - How to make me Happy card

Hey guys, I'm here with another fun coffee card for the Coffee Lovers Fall/Winter Blog Hop for 2025.  If you have never participated here is a link to find out how and a link to all of the Super Sponsors that usually have some pretty good deals going on for this hop!


I started off with a coffee stamp set I just purchased from Amazon (click here to see it).  I will say, I wasn't overly happy with it when I got it.  It is a bit flimsy and one of the stamps almost looks like she has a mustache...that's what I get for buying cheap stamps.

 But they turned out to be cute stamps/images so I guess I'm not that mad at them.  Anyhoo, I started with the cute image of a woman in slippers sitting back having a cup of coffee...I can't say that I've ever gone to the store in slippers but hey, a coffee run is a coffee run. 

I used my Copic Markers and my Spectrum NoirMarkers to color her (still trying to work on my shading technique, it's slow going, I really need to watch more vids).

After I finished coloring the image, I pulled out a double frame die from Whimsy Stamps and cut it out using a 6x6 paper from Brass and Bliss Java Good Time paper pad.   After die cutting it out I backed it with a toffee colored textured card stock.  

I pulled out my Vicki Boutin 12x12 paper pad I just got, I think it's called Art For Everyone.  I found this paper that looks like it has coffee rings on it and in the same color scheme as the clothes I colored on the image so I was super excited to use it - happy coincidence for sure. I backed the VB paper with the same toffee colored card stock to balance out the card and then adhered it all together (popping up the image on foam tape to give it a bit of dimension).

I reached into my coffee sentiment stamps and grabbed a Brass and Bliss stamp set called LET'S MEET FOR COFFEE and stamped it on the top.


This card was so simple and easy to make...I hope it has inspired you to pull out your coffee stamps and make a card and hop along for the 2025 Coffee Lovers Fall/Winter Blog hop.

Thanks for hanging out with me,

Have a crafty day!
