  • Rise & Shine

    Rise & Shine

    I’m up on the Coffee Loving Papercrafters Blog today with my second card for this month’s theme – which is sunshine

    I took a little different view of it for this card. I was thinking of having coffee and watching the sun rise.

    I love these Unity Papers Chickens & Chintz – all the elements of morning the roosters, the newsprint and then I added the coffee using die cut mugs using a Honey Bee Stamps die. The Stamped sentiment and image on the one mug are from Echo Park.

    I added a button for some interest and them mounted the mugs using foam squares. Thankfully this card went together quite easily because I didn’t have the energy or brainpower to struggle this time LOL

  • A Little Sunshine

    A Little Sunshine

    I am up on the Coffee Loving Papercrafters blog today. It is a new month so there’s a new theme up and this month it is Sunshine!

    For my card I reached for the You Are My Sunshine collection from Echo Park which is fitting don’t you think?

    The mug is a die from Honey Bee Stamps. I stencilled the sun on it using a stencil from Echo Park. I then added the shine sticker and a heart sticker and of course some staples. I mounted the mug on foam squares and added a little white heart for steam.

    I would love to see your sunshine themed coffee cards. Remember… iced coffee/ iced tea counts…

  • Garden Tea

    Garden Tea

    Happy Friday1 I am really looking forward to this weekend as we don’t have to go anywhere and I can putter, craft and get caught up around here! It has been a very busy couple of months, I feel like a hamster in a wheel – and I don’t even work full time LOL

    Anyways, I was up on the Coffee Loving Papercrafters blog the other day with another card for this month’s Lattes & Layers challenge which is bloom.

    For this card I went with Lilacs… which are in bloom around here right now and I love it! One of my favorite flowers/scents… in fact as I write this I have a lilac scented wax melt going and it is amazing.

     just yesterday received a box of goodies from Unity and this new Lilac Lane paper pack was part of it. Isn’t it lovely?! I would love to be sitting in a garden of lilacs, while sipping my morning tea (hence the wax melt… LOL) I used the Tea & Besties stamp from Unity.

    Once adhering all the pieces I fussy cut a few of the lilacs from the pattern paper to embellish the corners.

    This fun stamp set is ON SALE right now (only $11.20 REG $28) and you definitely NEED these gorgeous papers! (click on images for direct links)

  • Coffee Date with Amy

    Coffee Date with Amy

    Hey everyone, happy Friday! I am having a coffee date with Amy today. Both of us have played along with this month’s theme at Lattes & Layers which is Bloom. To make things even more exciting…Amy is having a giveaway 😀 you’ll have to check out her Instagram for more information on that. 

    For my card, I reached for the Bailey Girl stamp set from Unity (she’s ON SALE right now), there’s just something about her… IYKYK

    So many things I love about this card. I love the fun papers from Stampin Up, paper piecing (I would totally wear that hoodie) and fussy cutting

    I mounted here on foam squares for some dimension.

    Now don’t forget to check out Amy’s card HERE

    And be sure to grab this stamp set while it is on sale.

  • Diminish All Your Troubles

    Diminish All Your Troubles

    I am up on the Coffee Loving Papercrafters blog today with a new monthly theme challenge and this one is Bloom.

    I dug into some Stampin Up Papers and paired it with an old Papertrey Ink Stamp set. This stamp set has survived many purges over the years as I am a tea drinker and couldn’t bear to get rid of it.

    I mounted the teapot and sentiment on foam squares.

    Now if this inspires you at all, would love to see how. Come on over and play

  • I find my happiness

    I find my happiness

    I am up on the Coffee Loving Papercrafters blog today with a new theme challenge for the Lattes & Layers. This month is all about rainbows.

    Looking for inspiration? You could incorporate Rainbow by using:
    • an actual rainbow in your design
    • a rainbow of layered colors or patterned papers
    • ombré or tone-on-tone color palettes
    • mugs, cups, or drink elements with colorful accents

    I have used the You Are My Sunshine collection from Echo Park. The mug is from the I Like Big Cups stamp set by Creative Worship stamps, and the sentiment is from the You Are My Sunshine: Life Is Good Stamp Set also from Echo Park

    Now come and play along and let me see those rainbows!

  • My Coffee is Strong

    My Coffee is Strong

    I am up on the Coffee Loving Papercrafters blog today with the final post for the ‘GREEN’ challenge. Since we are still scraping out windows in the morning I decided that the Emerson Girl (Angiegirl from Unity) would be a good image to use LOL. I paired here with the Hay There papers (also from Unity)

    I had fun paper piecing her, something I used to do all the time. I thought the denim paper was perfect for her pants, don’t you think? I fussy cut her out and mounted on foam squares for some dimension

    The sentiment is from the Latte Life Snippets – lots of great coffee sayings in this collection.
