  • Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!

    summer blog hop graphic

    We are thrilled to play along in the Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop! We participated in the Spring hop back in March and are excited to join in the Summer fun for this hop. Summer is the theme and thought we would show you a "teacher gift" idea since it's the end of the school year and it seems like a coffee gift card is the perfect gift for all of those amazing teachers!

    For this project, we used a few of our favorite stamps, Bloom where you are planted and Poppy flower with leaf on side stamped in our favorite summer colors - Fresh Ink strawberry and mint. The flower stamp has the bonus leaf stamp on the side. I used Versafine black onyx for the black cup and sentiment stamp.  I love that black ink - it's so rich and perfect.

    coffee card

    You may have noticed our hand carved coffee cup.  This is what happens when I can't find a stamp.  Yes, you can carve it.  I have a weakness for the hand carved look.  For our teacher's gift, we bought some garden gloves at Dollar Tree to go with our card.  They had some fun colors and patterns and the kids loved the idea. I love to put gifts in these clear cellophane bags!  They make everything look pretty!

    We've had so much fun participating in this blog hop!  Thank you Amy Tsuruta for the invitation! For more inspiration, go on over to the Coffee Lovers Cardmakers blog.

  • Double Stamping Technique

    IMG_4538

    This is a fun technique when you want to make an image stand out!  It works well with solid or thick stamps like the "thanks" shown above.  You also need to stamp on a colored paper where this technique will show.  For this card, we used kraft but I've seen it on done on all different colors.  First you stamp the word in the darker color.  We used Fresh Ink turquoise and then you'll want to stamp with Fresh Ink white over the top but just slightly off.  If you try it with clear stamps then you can stamp to perfection using the MISTI.  Since this is a wood mounted stamp then you can easily eye it.  This will definitely impress those that receive a card like this! Try it today.  You'll be amazed at how easy it is!

  • Ahoy!

    IMG_4114

    We love our nautical release and all of the endless possibilities. Here is a fun card project that is fairly easy to create. Here are the steps and details:

    1. Cut a regular A-2 card, 4.25 x 5.5 size, white.
    2. Cut a panel that will fit on top of the card, but slightly smaller. 4 x 5.25, white.
    3. Die cut a rectangle shape, for your window,  on the front of the panel card.
    4. Cut a piece of watercolor paper that will fit behind the window cut out.  Next, stamp the anchor and your words and watercolor the background.  You'll glue this down to your card.
    5. Stamp the front panel with your favorite coral colors.  For this card we used Fresh Ink coral and fuchsia for the dotted coral stamp.
    6. Glue the stamped panel to your card and then punch a hole and tie a piece of twine from the anchor to the top of the card.

    We are so EXCITED because our COMMENTS section is now working on our blog! yeah! Thanks for stopping by.
