Newton's Nook Designs - Birthday Brew

Hello!!

This is my last card for the Coffee Loving Cardmakers Spring/Summer Blog Hop!! It has been a fun week sharing and seeing a ton of inspiration!! If you still have projects to link up, better get to it!!!

This card features Sponsor Newton's Nook Designs - Newton Loves Coffee stamp set. I decided to do some paper piecing, it has been awhile and realized how much I miss doing it! I don't mind doing all the fussy cutting!!

I used a Doodle Bug designs pattern paper pad and stamped the images on different colorful sheets. Fussy cut them all out and of course use a black pen to color the images edges.

I stamped the kitty looking at a mug from the edge on a strip of white card stock. I colored him and the other kitty with my Copic markers. Then I fussy cut the top part of the kitty looking over the edge.

Then I adhered all my paper piecing to my white stamped cups and then arranged them on the 'table' I created with the kitty looking over the edge.

From the pattern paper pad I added a blue and grey pattern to a white card base and then added the 'table' with all the cups and kitties!!

Thanks so much for stopping by!! Don't forget to link up your coffee/tea/hot cocoa/cider project to the CLC blog for your chance to win a prize from our wonderful sponsors!!

Graciellie Designs - Coffee Queen

Hello!!

I'm popping in another card for the Coffee Loving Cardmakers Spring/Summer Blog Hop!! My second to last card! I'll be back later today with my last card!!

This card features Sponsor Graciellie Designs new Coffee Queen digital stamp set!! It has some great sentiments perfect for this quarantine/social distancing time!! AND it's Gracie's Birthday, so everything is 50% off!!! No code needed!!! Please note my Graciellie Designs links are affiliate, at no extra cost to you! So go shop and enjoy the sale!!!

I used one of the coffee images and added it to a Word document and made it big!! Then I added one of the sentiments to the middle of the coffee cup. Printed it out and colored it with copics.

Then I fussy cut the image out and then I decided to use some washi tape to make my my background. I have lots of washi tape that I don't use that often!! LOL!!! I picked out a couple purple and gold tapes of different widths and just added them to a white panel.

The washi tape is so easy, I used my lined glass mat to make the tape straight and hold my panel in place. Then I gently pulled up the panel and wrapped the washi tape ends around the edge to the back of the panel. And wa-la a super easy background!!

I added my colored image to the panel with foam tape and then adhered the panel to a white card base. Since some of the washi tape was glittery I decided any enamel dots or sequins would be overkill!

Thanks so much for stopping by!! I'll me back later today with my last card!!

My card features Sponsor Miss Ink Stamps, Java Joe's stamp set! First I stamped the girl sitting at the table and the tree on white card stock, then colored them up with my Copic makers. Then I fussy cut them out.

Graciellie Designs - Coffee Queen

Hello!!

I'm back with another card for the Coffee Loving Cardmakers Spring/Summer Blog Hop!! I still have a few more to go!! What can I say, when your in the mood to create, you do!! LOL!!

This card features Graciellie Designs - Coffee Queen stamp set! Graciellie Designs is a sponsor so make sure to link your project for you chance to win a fab prize from Graciellie Designs!! Please note my Gracellie Designs links are affiliate links!

I started by added one of the coffee images to a Word document, then I added one of the sentiments to the coffee cup. After printing the image I used my Copic markers to color the image. Then I fussy cut it out.

For some reason I had issues trying do a background for this card, maybe because of the colors I colored it. It was a few days later that I came across a scrap of gold glitter card stock, and after trying it with a blue card base I new that it was just right for the image.

I trimmed the glitter card stock a little and then adhered it to the blue card base. Then I added the colored image with foam tape.

Thanks so much for stopping by!! I'll be back tomorrow with some more coffee inspiration for you tomorrow!!

The Rabbit Hole Designs - Caffeinated Owl

Hello!!

I'm hopping by with another card I made for the Coffee Loving Cardmakers Spring/Summer Blog Hop!! Creating and post all these coffee cards are making me miss my Starbucks Mocha Cookie Crumble Frappucino!! While Starbucks is open, I just don't want to risk exposing my self anymore then necessary! But, there is one in the future as cases of COVID continue to go down in my state!

Anyway! Today my card features The Rabbit Hole Designs Caffeinated Owl! He looks how I feel when I wake up in the morning!! Haha!!

This card is fairly simple, it came together nicely and simply!! Some times its nice to something on the easy side!! First, I stamped the owl and then used my Copic markers to color him up! Then I fussy cut her out!

Then I went through my pattern paper stash and found some fun sun pattern paper. I cut a panel with a stitched rectangle and then used some matching ink to ink around the edge.

Next, I added the owl to the panel with foam tape and below him stamped the sentiment: Hoo Needs Caffeine!  Last, I adhered the panel to a grey card base, and wa-la!

Thanks so much for stopping by!! Yep, I'll be back with another card later today! I have several still to go! I was on a roll this past holiday weekend!!

Sugar Pea Designs - Ahoy There Coffee

Hello!!

My next coffee card today for the Spring/Summer Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog Hop features Sugar Pea Designs Coffee To Go. Its retired from their website, but Sponsor Butterfly Reflections still has it available!!

Occasionally I try to make a coffee card that is more masculine, in this case for a younger little guy! While he probably doesn't drink coffee, he can play along and pretend and not get left out getting a coffee just like mom or dad!!

I used Echo Park Paper Co Pirates Life paper collection. First I cut a pattern paper panel with a stitched rectangle die.

With the Coffee To Go I used a couple different patterns to cut out the cup. Then I added a skull and cross bones sticker to the cup. From the collection I also pulled out an octopus sticker and the alpha stickers to spell Coffee.  The Ahoy There is also a sticker and I cut off the Pirate word at the bottom of the sticker, so instead of Ahoy There Pirate, the sentiment is Ahoy There Coffee!

I added a white and red sticker across the panel and then adhered the stickers to spell Coffee. Then I added the octopus, cup and Ahoy There above the Coffee.

Thanks so much for stopping by!! There is still plenty of time to play along, so don't forget to link up your project!!

Today's card features Super Sponsor The Cat's Pajamas, Make Tea stamp set! I used the cute bunny sitting in the cup with the flowers. I used my Copic markers to color her up, then I fussy cut her out.

With The Greetery Sentiment Suite Basics die set, I cut a double ended banner from white card stock. I stamped the Keep Calm Put the Kettle On sentiment, then I cut the banner again from black. Then I adhere the white on top of the black, off setting it a little.

Next, I used Sponsor Funky Fossil Designs Random Rectangles stencils with three Distress Oxide colors. I inked up the darker color at the bottom working up to the lighter color.
