My card sample today features the fun 'Hug in a Mug' Stamp/Die Duos set, along with the ODBD Custom Clouds and Raindrops Dies set (tiny hearts), ODBD Custom Pierced Circles Dies, ODBD Custom Circles Dies (mat), and the ODBD Custom Pierced Rectangles Dies.  The background was created by swiping two shades of brown ink onto a craft mat, spritzed with water, then instant coffee granules were sprinkled on and allowed to dissolve.  The ink/coffee mixture was then blotted up with a piece of white cardstock.  Once the panel was dry, it was cut with the largest die from the Pierced Rectangles, and again with the next smallest die (this created a frame border which was adhered to the inside panel.)  Five extra mugs were stamped, watercolored, cut with the custom die, then popped up on the card.

Hi, everyone!  Looking at the gorgeous colors and patterns in the 'Latte Love' Paper Collection from Our Daily Bread designs, I just had to make a quilt pattern!  I used the ODBD Custom Log Cabin Quilt Die with vanilla cardstock (for the frame) first.  I cut out another piece of cardstock which is the same size of the quilt frame, ran it through my Xyron sticker maker, then adhered the vanilla quilt frame to it.  Once I cut out the pattern and orange quilt pieces, I popped them into the frame and pressed them onto the sticker layer.  This is the easiest and quickest way I have found to adhere the quilt pieces together.  The coffee cups from 'Hug in a Mug' Stamp/Die Duos were stamped twice onto vanilla cardstock plus two shades from the 'Latte Love' Paper Collection.  The sentiment was split between the two cups using masking.  Once the cups were paper-pieced together onto the custom die, they were popped up with foam tape over the vanilla seam binding.  The bow was tied using a Bow Easy.  I will be submitting this card to the Spring and Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop, which is open until June 1st.

Coffee Is Always A Good Idea!

Happy Saturday, everyone! This week's Inspiration Challenge over at Splitcoast is to find inspiration from Audrie's 'My New House Ideas' Pinterest board.  When I saw this awesome coffee station, I was inspired by several aspects of it: coffee (need I say more?!), the gorgeous marble countertop, and the golden leaf handles for the canisters which match the gold tray! The countertop made me want to try the tissue paper technique which I first tried on this card. The coffee pot reminded me of my favorite stamp from the 'I Love Coffee' set by Our Daily Bread designs.....this is my motto!! :) The leaves from 'Autumn Blessings' were gold embossed on gold cardstock, then cut out with the ODBD Custom Fall Leaves and Acorn Dies.  To cut out the sentiment panels, I used the ODBD Custom Ornate Ovals Dies and ODBD Custom Ovals Dies.  Once the tissue paper was adhered to a piece of white cardstock which was ran through a Xyron machine, the panel was cut with the ODBD Custom Pierced Rectangles Dies.  I will also be submitting this to the September Fan Club challenge since the tissue paper has wrinkles in it.  Plus, the Fall Coffee Lovers Blog Hop is going on....will submit there as well!

I Love Coffee!

Hi, everyone!  This week's Inspiration Challenge over at Splitcoast is to find inspiration from a scrapbook projects Pinterest board.....I fell in love with this cool page because of the repeated (stamped?) background, pennant flags, and fun layout with the die cut words.  I chose a photo of me from last month on our 25th anniversary cruise....I was enjoying my cuppa joe while relaxing on a bench in Central Park on the ship.  I started by stamping the sentiment from 'I Love Coffee' many times onto a tan piece of designer paper from the ODBD Ephemera Essentials Paper Collection (The polka dot paper is also from this collection).  The stamping alone was a bit plain as is, so I created a reverse mask and sponged red into each heart.  Here is a list of the other dies used in my 6x6 scrapbook page: ODBD Custom Double Stitched Rectangles Dies, ODBD Custom Double Stitched Pennant Flags Dies, ODBD Custom Mini Stitched Hearts, ODBD Custom Alphabet Dies, ODBD Custom 'Faith, Hope, and Love' Dies (unfortunately are now retired). I will also be submitting this to the Summer Coffee Lover's Blog Hop.

Thanks for stopping by!
