It's coffee time

I'm back guest designing on the Coffee Loving Papercrafters blog today with a little Saint Patrick's day inspiration! Products:   Yeti birthday, Brewskis and Coffee time die set ( Whimsy Stamps ) Sassy speech bubble ( Waffle Flower Crafts ) A birdie told me and Lucky clovers ( Lawn Fawn ) A little grainy stencil ( Clearly Besotted ) Argyle stencil ( Newton's Nook ) Ranger Distress oxides: Twisted citron, Lucky clover, Black soot, Gathered twigs and Scorched timber I started by cutting the background panel from white cardstock. The panel is 5.5 by 4.75". I also cut the cardbase, slightly greater than the background panel. I masked the bottom of the panel to create a table surface later on, with masking tape, and I blended Ranger Distress oxide Lucky clover on the upper part. I then placed the diamond layer from the Newton's Nook Argyle stencil set and blended Ranger Distress oxide Black soot through it. I removed the stencil and placed the second layer, aligning ...

Surprise! It's me sending you LOVE

I'm sharing a floral card today featuring the @alexsyberiadesigns Trendy botanicals die set and Penguin Love stamp set.   Alex Syberia Design products: Trendy botanicals die set Penguin love Love & XOXO die set Heart garland cover die Distress inks: Mowed lawn, Worn lipstick, Festive berries and Saltwater taffy To create this card, I die cut a few of the florals from the Trendy botanicals die set a couple times from pink, red and green cardstock. I then added a little shading with Distress inks, Mowed lawn for the leaves, Worn lipstick, Festive berries and Saltwater taffy for the flowers. I then assembled each flower with liquid adhesive, gluing the petals and stems together. I stamped the sentiment and cute penguin from the Penguin Love stamp set, colored the penguin with Copic markers and used the coordinating dies to cut out the penguin and sentiment. I also die cut the background panel with the Heart garland cover die from white cardstock. I had also die cut one from pink a...

Give me my coffee right meow!

This month, I am proudly guest designing for the Coffee Loving Papercrafters . As a coffee addict, I have accumulated a number of products related to that theme, so it is with great joy that I digged into my treasures.

Hugs + Kisses

The new Heart collage die from @alexsyberiadesigns is so much fun and so versatile. I couldn't resist creating a shaker and use different mixes to fill a few of the hearts. Alex Syberia Design products: Penguin love Thanks & Hugs die set Heart collage die To create this card, I die cut the Heart collage die from white cardstock 8 times. I glued 7 of them together, to create the shakers. I used it as a Template to outline the shape with a permanent marker on acetate. I then cut the shape with scissors and glued the acetate at the back of the 8th Heart collage. Next, I cut the back panel from pink cardstock, slightly bigger than the Heart collage. I adhered the back panel onto the cardbase and glued the stacked Heart collage on the background panel. I poured 3 different mixes of clay and bead embellishments in several hearts cavities and glued the top Heart collage and acetate on top. I then stamped the cute Penguin with its heart garland from the Penguin love and colored the ima...
