Coffee Lovers Blog Hop - Day 5, 6 and 7

 

Hello caffinated creative friends,

Here another day of the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.

For my American friends it is Thanksgiving today,

but here in The Netherlands it is a cold and rainy

normal Thursday.

These are the cards I made for the last few days. Two I have posted to 

my instagram account - 4hetty - for I had no time to post here.

Instagram is quick and easy.

This is #457 on the linky party

and I used papers and dies from Funky Fossil Designs.

The snowflakes are dies from Stampin'Up! and the

gingerbreadman is a stamp from my stash from the dollar store.

This is card #539 in the linky party and used the Tim Holtz

coffee cup die with Funky Fossil Designs papers.

The stamps are from the Nordic Noel stampset.

And now for today's card:

The background of this card #636 is made with a pumpkin embossing

folder with a touch of orange ink on the pumpkins.

The girl is a stamp from the set She is fierce by

Funky Fossil Designs, as well as the cup from the

Layering Cup die set.

The sentiment is made with the computer.

The gold embossed pumpkin stamp is by Michael Strong.

When you open the gold ribbon on the handle of the cup,

 there is the wish for a  Happy Thanksgiving.

Thank you for looking

and I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving

with your family and/or friends.

Bugaboo digital stamps: Oldie but Goodie

Hello Craftie Friends!

Today I am back with an older stamp by Bugaboo Stamps.

This is Christmas Teddy Cocoa and the sentiment is

from another stamp set Gingerbread Wishes.

After printing the image, I colored  it with Stampin'Blends

and cut it out. Found some fun Christmas paper that matched

the bear and the sentiment. A simple ribbon and that finishes

this card.

As today is also Thanksgiving, I found this old card in

my files, using AKV Turkey Pumpkin.

I hope all of you have a wonderful Thanksgiving, even

if it is a zoom family gathering. Be happy  and stay safe.

Thanks for looking,

enjoy your day

and keep crafting!

 

Happy Thanksgiving!

Today I wish all my American friends

A very Happy Thanksgiving

and hope you all have a wonderful time

with your family and friends.

My card is also for the Tape It Up challenge on the

 Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog.

So I started with 3 colors of washi tape on a piece

of scrap. Next I took a word from this sizzix thinlit set

and cut out the word thanks.

Then the background was the next step.

I took some distress oxide inks out in fall colors.

With blending tools I added the colors to the paper.

I am quite happy with the final result.

Now some stamping, embossing and coloring is done.

Here the result of the stamping

and the cutting of the "thanks".

Thank you for looking

and have a delicious creative day!

Bugaboo Bingo

Here my card for the Bingo challenge on the 

weekly challenge on the 

Bugaboo Challenge Blog.

This week it is a B-I-N-G-O

and my choice is: Bugaboo image - embossing and button.

For my card I used the Friday Freebie Turkey Pumpkin

and colored this with my SU! stampingblends.

I printed the image twice and cut the pumpkin

of the second image to have a 3d effect on the card.

The leaves are cut with a strip die by Tim Holtz.

The background od the card is embossed with a leaves

embossing folder.

Before running the panel trough the big shot,

I added a few Fall colors of distress ink on the 

embossing folder to create the colorful background.

This sentiment is from my digital stamp stash,

 not sure where I found it.

I also used some design paper left over pieces to

finish the cards. Thankful for my box of buttons.

There is always one I can use.

Thank you for looking

and have a creative day!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Today it is Thanksgiving in America and with this

card I want to wish you all a very 

Happy Thanksgiving!

I am so thankful that through my cardmaking

and scrapbooking I made so many friends all

over the world. Not only through cyberspace,

but also meeting a lot of you in real life.

Thank you for being my friend!

I made this card with papers of Club Scrap,

a coffee cup die by Tim Holtz and hear, chick and 

fan stamp by Michael Strong.

I want to enter my card in the 

food/drink challenge this week on the

Simon Says Stamp Blog.

Thank your for looking

and have a lovely and creative day!

Give thanks

Today it is all about thanks and challenges!

Thanks for the challenge

Thanks for the stamps

Thanks for all of you who come and leave comments

Thanks for creativity!

I have two cards made with 

some stuff that was on my desk.

The first card is for the 

CAS(E) this sketch challenge.

I started with the hand stamp by Michael Strong,

that was still on my desk. The set comes with a large 

and a small stamp. They are stamped in walnut 

oxide distress ink and colored with my new zig markers.

Then all the hands are cut with scissors.

This background was still on my table.

It is done with inks on a craft sheet and 

get think direct to the paper.

The hands are together on the background and on top 

you see thanks, made with a Tim Holtz thinlit and

some left over black paper.

Card number 2 is for the October challenge

on the Love Cynthia Facebook Group week 4.

The leave background paper is left over from some of

my coffee cards from the Fall blog hop recently.

The Happy girl is left over from yesterday's card.

Colored with zig markers matching the background.

She is from the "Make happiness a habit" stamp set

by Love Cynthia.

Here also a diecut thanks is added.

Thank you for looking

and have a creative day!

Thankful leaves FMS263

Here is my card for day 19 of the

Color challenge on

The Daily Marker Blog.

You find all the details there.

But this card is also a scketch challenge from the

Freshley Made Sketches Blog.

The color inspriation is from outside in my garden.

The beautiful yellow tree and

all the leaves on the ground.

So I started my card with stamping 

Michael Strong's pumpkin stamps and embossed 

them with Orient Express embossing powder.

The next step is cutting some leave shapes out of the 

pumpkin with thinlits from Stampin'Up!

Here are all the leaves for my card.

So I took my distress markers and colored

all the leaves.

For the finished card I added tiny yellow and green

gemstones. You see also leaves on the background.

Thoose are embossed on the card and colored

with brown distress ink.

For the bottom of the card I used this lined design paper

and had the idea of writing the word thankful on

those lines with a black pen.

And this is the result on the card. 

The sentiment is from Tim Holtz.

Thank you for looking

and have a creative day!
