Gingerbread Latte

 Hello everyone.  I'm so excited for the Fall Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop going on now.  I had to use this cute Gingerbread die set that is new to me.  A special sweet friend sent me a GC to Sponsor Doodlebugwa and I had to grab this die set from Sponsor Pretty Pink Posh.  Thank you to my sweet friend I hope she knows how thankful I am to her.

Without further ado here is my card.

Isn't this Gingie Mug Cute??? Obsessed with Gingies all the time.  I love this set from Pretty Pink Posh called Gingerbread Mugs.  I think they have a Penguin set too EEEP😍.  I did some ink blending with Scorched Timber Oxide ink on an ivory colored cardstock for the mug and handle.  I cut out a lot of the other elements with white cardstock and used my copic markers to color them in.  The coffee die was cut out with brown cardstock and the candy cane has 2 dies so I used red and white cardstock. The eyes and mouth I used a copic marker.  So fun.  

This cute paper is from Sponsor Crafty Stamp Co. called Merry Latte.  Loove.  I glued everything to a A2 card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  My paper strip says Gingerbread Latte so I didn't feel like I needed another sentiment perhaps I will stamp on the inside of the card.  Do you do that sometimes?  I feel like it's a good way to personalize to your recipient.  I love this card and had so much fun making it.  Thank you to my sweet friend this was a definitely a delight and this die is staying on my desk. Ohhh and I'm grabbing me a Gingerbread Latte drink from my favorite coffee shop! Hugs!

Coffee Date With My Crafty Friend Shelly YAY!

 Hello everyone.  I'm so excited to have a Coffee date with my Amazing and talented Crafty Friend Shelly  We are on the Coffee Loving Papercrafters Blog today for our Coffee Date. I love Coffee so much and I was trilled when she invited me.  My favorite coffee right now is Pumpkin spice Latte Hot or Iced. What's Your Favorite?  We chose to work with the same stamp from Crafty Stamp Co. called A Day Without.  

Without further ado, here is my card.

Here is a little bit of my creating process.  I stamped these cute kitty images from A Day Without stamp set from the Crafty Stamp Co. on Neenah Solar White cardstock 110 pounds with a Hero Arts Ombre Pink to Red ink pad. My panel is 4 x 5 1/4.  On another panel, I stamped the same kitty and heat embossed it with Versafine Onyx ink and clear embossing powder.  I colored the image with my Copic Markers RV04, RV06, R21, E99, E47, W2, W3, W4, and W5.

I did some stenciling on the white areas using a stencil from Kat Scrappiness called Brew-tiful Beans.  I ink blended with Lawn Fawn Doe ink. I tried ink blending the stencil very carefully.

Next, I stamped and heat embossed my sentiment from the same stamp set on black cardstock with Versamark ink and white embossing powder.  I then fussy cut around the sentiment using my scissors.  I also glued my panel to a A2 card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  Before I glued it,  I used a paw print die (I think it's from MFT Stamps) and cut it out with pink cardstock and attached it to some black/white twine.  I tucked it behind the card panel with craft foam. I then glued and sandwitched everything to a A2 card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  I also stamped and heat embossed another sentiment onto the kitty's big cup image before adhering it with foam tape.

I love how the Paw Print dangles. I added some white gel pen accents using my Gelly Roll pen.

My sentiment was adhered with foam squares.  I used some cute pink Pawprint sequins from Kat Scrappiness to finish my card. I also stamped my envelope flap to match my card.  So fun. I had so much fun making this card.  I also had so much fun on this Coffee Date with my Crafty Friend Shelly 💗💗🐱Yay!! I hope we can do this again sometime soon!!  

How cute and Beautiful is Shelly's card??? I just love her style!!! Visit her Blog here

Christmas Cheer Tag

 Hello everyone.  I have a large tag that I created and it's for coffee.  You can easily gift a box or bag of coffee. I would love a coffee gift.   I used a New Stencil from A Colorful Life Designs.

I love coffee and I said why not make a tag to gift some coffee, maybe a family member will get this gift.  I used a New stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called Christmas Cheer.  I used tan colored paper 100 pound.  I ink blended the coffee art with Ground Espresso distress ink and Hero Arts Hero Hues Unicorn ink.  I ink blended the sentiment from the same stencil using Concord & 9th Poppy ink.

I used a Nested Domed Arches die from Simon Says Stamp.  I cut out another nested domed arch and layered them together to make my tag stronger.  I used 2 different kinds of twine and punched a hole through my tag and then tied my twine to my tag.  I love this stencil.  Next time I will use it for a card.  You can check out the New Release here.

Coffee is Always A Good Idea

 Hello everyone.  I have a coffee card for the Fall Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.  I hopped yesterday and Jessical Lynn Original had a free digi called Xmas Flowers so I decided to download it and use it for a Fall card.  It's a really beautiful digital stamp and Jessica is always so kind to gift a free digi.  

I started out printing my images on white paper 100 pound.  I googled a Fall floral bouquet image.  I love google.  It showed me a pretty orange and purple bouquet.  I love purple.  I used a mix of copic markers and Ohuhu to color my image.  Next, I fussy cut my image out.  I cut some pattern paper that's Fall and embossed from a older 12x12 paper pack from Michaels.  I cut it to be shorter than A2 size 4 x 5 1/4.  I found some gingham paper in my stash I believe it's from MFT Stamps.  I cut a strip and glued them to a kraft A2 card base.

  I stamped a sentiment from Journals For Life But First Coffee Stamp set using Catherine Pooler Sangria ink.  I cut my sentiment using my mini paper trimmer.  I popped up my image with Therm O Wen foam tape and glued my sentiment to my card with liquid glue.  I embellished my card with some card bling from A Colorful Life Designs and that finishes my Fall card.  I can't wait to use this digi for a Christmas Card now.

Thank you 💗

I used my Sarah Renae Clark Color Cube Volume 2 card #271 Teal, Turquoise, White, Smoke, Caramel, and Chocolate.  I think it Mimics what I would have chosen anyways.  I started out with white cardstock and I ink blended the Twisted Grid 6x6 Stencil with Concord and 9th Peacock and Oceanside.  I also used Distress ink in Lost Shadow.  I then used Hero Hues ink in Caramel and Espresso.  These ink colors have me wanting a Grande Crumbled Cookie Frap Yum.  I then cut out my background using a square die from Waffle Flower.

I had this digital stamp printed in my digi folder from Graciellie Design.  I colored it using my ohuhu markers and then I fussy cut it out.  I glued my square background to a kraft card base.  I popped up my coffee with foam tape. I love the both sentiments that I had placed on this cuppa before I printed it.  Perfect for a Coffee Friend.  I embellished with some card bling from A Colorful Life Designs in gold and green.

On my card, I used Sweet Holiday Wishes Stamp and Coordinating die, Latte Love Stamp, and Poinsettia Wishes Stamp.  I started out with stamping the cute ginger girl with black ink on white cardstock.  I colored her in with copic markers.  I also stamped the small to-go cup from Latte Love Stamp and colored it to match.  I used the coordinating die to cut the ginger out and I fussy cut out the to-go cup.

For my background, I cut out some white cardstock 4x 5 1/4.  I used the Poinsettia wishes stamp and stamped the smaller Poinsettia with Catherine Pooler Samba ink in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation stamping.  I used Catherine Pooler Mardi Gras ink for the leaves also using the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation stamping.  I used black ink for the center image.  I also stamped the sentiment from Sweet Holiday Wishes with Mardi Gras ink.  I cut my sentiment with my paper trimmer rounding it off.

I then glued my background to a kraft A2 card base.  I added the ginger, to-go cup, and sentiment with foam tape.  Lastly, I added some gel accents with my gelly roll pen and clear sequins.  I hope you like it.

So Yeah, I'm Pretty Busy

 Hello everyone.  Have you been enjoying the fun snarky cards I have been posting?  The New Stencils from A Colorful Life Designs are so great!! I have another one for you today.  Make sure and use my code VonFan10 to save 10% off your purchase.

I just love this sentiment from the New Snarky Coffee Stencil.  It cracks me up.  I started out with kraft cardstock.  I chose to ink blend the Coffee Beans Stencil with Catherine Pooler Over Coffee ink using a blending brush.  I then decided to use the Latte Vibes Stencil with Tattered Rose Distress Oxide ink and a blending brush.  I then cut my cardstock to be 4 x 5 1/4.

Next, I used Fabriano Hot Press watercolor paper 140lb.  I used Tim Holtz Distress Mica Crayons Pearl set in Holly Branch, Winterberry, and Snow Flurries.  I colored which was fun with a little bit of water and when it dried I cut out this coffee cup from Pretty Pink Posh.  I used a brown watercolor marker for the coffee portion on my coffee cup.  I also cut out some hands using a hands die from a retired Ellen Hutson die.  I colored the hands with Tattered Rose Distress Oxide ink.  I trimmed them before glueing them to my cup.  

I then stenciled this funny sentiment with Versafine Clair Nocturne ink using a small blending brush.  I glued my coffee cup with hands to my panel and glued it to a white A2 card base.  I glued some card bling and that finishes my card.  I hope you like my card.  It was really fun to make.  You can see the newest release here.

I started out stamping and embossing some of the Latte Cups, Steam, and floral images with Versafine ink and clear embossing powder on Neenah Solar White 80lb. Cardstock.  I used my copic markers and Ohuhu Markers to color in my images and then used the coordinating dies to cut everything out.  Next, I cut out the A2 Qbert Quilt background die out with white cardtock.  I used the A2 Qbert Stencil to coordinate with the die-cut.  I then ink blended with Ground Espresso Distress ink.  I stamped the Swan Coffee Art with Lawn Fawn Crunchy Leaf ink and heat embossed it using my clear embossing powder for the inside of my latte cup.   You can also use the die to cut out the art for more dimension.

I used a rectangle die from the Embossed Rectangle dies with white cardstock to ink blend with Ground Espresso Distress ink to lay my latte cup on.   I cut the rest of the die-cut using my paper trimmer.  I only wanted a small piece of the rectangle.  I also used the new Love is in the Air Stencil on my Qbert Quilt ink blended die-cut using 2 different brown inks.  Ground Espresso Distress ink and Lawn fawn Crunchy Leaf ink.  I love how it came out.

Good Cheer Elf Mug

Hello everyone.  I have my last card for the Fall Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.   

I used a SVG File called Christmas Elf Mug from the Silhouette Design studio.  I used my Silhouette Cameo 3 to cut all my die-cuts out using white cardstock.  I ink blended my die-cuts using Gina K Designs Faded Brick ink, Pinkfresh Studio Emerald City ink, Black Soot Distress Oxide ink, Lost Shadow Distress ink, Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide ink, Broken China Distress Oxide ink, and Lucky Clover Distress ink.  I then glued all my die-cuts together using liquid glue.

I grabbed a A2 piece of red cardstock and I rann it through my diecutting machine using a Gina K Designs Swiss Dots embossing folder.  I then took a sanding block and sanded some of my dots.  I stamped my sentiment with black ink on white cardstock from STAMPlorations Holiday Mocha Feels stamp and then layered it on black cardstock.  I glued everything to a green A2 card base and glued some festive sequins to match.  I hope you like my elf mug.  It was a lot of fun and I enjoy ink blending even when I have colored cardstock.

Holiday Festivities

 Hello everyone, I have another Coffee Holiday card to share.  I used this sweet digital stamp Hot Coffee Mouse from Sweet November Stamps again but this time for a Christmas Card.  My last card was a Fall Card.  I love that it can be used for any Occasion.  I will be linking it up to the Fall Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.  I can't believe tomorrow is the last day I'm having so much fun!

I ptinted this cute image and colored it in with my Copic Markers.  I made him a hill again.  I colored my ground with a copic marker and I ink blended some red ink for my background.  I then chose to use a stencil Buffalo Plaid from A Colorful Life Designs(use VonFan10 to save) and ink blended it with a brown and red ink.  I then cut my background to be A2 size.

I glued my panel to a green A2 car base.  I then added a sentiment ephemera and a snowflake sequin to the coffee cup.  Lastly, I added a few white gel accents with my gelly roll pen.  I hope you like it.
