So here another look at the outside I shared with

you yesterday and the contruction of this mini book.

Your Next Stamp set. I also used a Sizzix coffee

ring die and a coffee ring stamp from Club Scrap.

The coffee can is from Stampin'Up!

I cut it out from their scrap paper.

Inside the little enveloppe you find this atc.

For the atc I used the coffee stampset

from Michael Strong. The macarons

are a stamp that came as a freebie

with a stamp magazine. 

First I stamped the steam on the background.

The cups are stamped on the kraft paper and 

embossed with brown embossing powder.

After cutting them out, I made a slit in two of them

so I can stack them. A piece of foam tape

holds them together and tapes them to

the background. Next I stamped and colored

the macarons and also added them with

foamtape to the background.

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop: day 3

Welcome to another day of the

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.

You can add your own card or project

and be elligible to one of the fabulouze prizes,

so don't forget to check out the blog.

Today I share a project with you and will show you

the inside in the next couple of days. It is a little

booklet that holds a few coffee atc's.

This booklet is 4 x 4 inch on the outside.

I also loved the sentiments from the 

Your Next Stamp set and I will use them for

this booklet.

I used the envelope punch board to make 

the inside pages. The papers I used are from

a Tim Holtz paper block.

When the enveloppes were finished I colored

them with walnut stain ink.

All sides were colored with the ink.

The 4 x 4 inch hardboard covers are decorated

with torn strips of the same paper I used for

the enveloppes.

When the ouside was finished with the torn paper

I covered the inside with a square piece of

3,5x 3,5 inch of Tim Holtz paper.

Front and back and 3 enveloppes.

The book is put together with the zutter

and a metal ring.

Her you see it from above holding the enveloppes.

The rings are in black and it has a vintage look.

This is the front of the book. I found some vintage pictures

on my computer and printed these to make some atc's with.

Besides the picture I used the Michael Strong mini coffee

cup, sentiment by Your Next Stamp, tea bag die by

Stampin'Up! and rectange wave die from my stash.

Thank you for looking

Welcome to the last day of me being the card captain

on the Enjoy Michael Strong Stamp group.

Did you think when is the coffee card coming?

Well, I waited until the last day!

You find Michael Strong's coffee stamp here.

I enter my card for the color and sketch challenge

on the Your Next Stamp Blog.

So I started this card bij stamping the coffee steam

with versamark ink and embossed this with white

embossing powder.

You can see the steam white on white.

With salty ocean distress oxide ink and a blending

tool i colored all of the background. When finished

I took a paper towel to rub of the ink of the steam.

Then with blueprint sketch I stamped the steam again

on top of the lighter blue background.

The sentiment  by Your Next Stamp (from a set that is 

not available anymore, but with wonderful sentiments) 

is stamped with versifine ink. YNS has many other 

wonderful coffee stamps that you can find HERE.

With washi tape I marked the lines as in the sketch.

And here are the mini coffee cups. Stamped on blue 

paper and embossed in white.

After cutting them out, I added them to the card,

each with a little pearl on top.
