Coffee Lovers Blog Hop: Day 3

Here is day 3 of the 

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.

Go over to the blog and see all the wonderful

sponsors and all the prizes you can win.

Did you go to the blog of JessicaLynnOriginals

to get the Brentwood FREEBIE?

I did and made some cards and suddenly had an other idea:

A bookmark/ bookcorner.

These bookcorners are so easy to make!

You find the folding instructions here.

Here you see also the back of the book corner, 

that is behind the page on th first picture

I printed and colored the image and then cut it out.

The mugs are done with a punch.

The sentiment is from a Verve Stamp set by Julee Tilman.

Unfortunately here shop is closed.

Thank you al for looking,

sty safe, have a coffee

and keep crafting!

 

Simon Says: Summer Memories

Hello Crafty Friends,

Here I am with a card for the

Simon Monday Challenge Blog

where the challenge is

Summer Memories.

Well here in the Netherlands it is a heatwave at the moment

and i need to drink lots and lots. Iced tea keeps me going

especially the strawbery & lime frozen iced tea by

Starbucks. What is your favorite flavour this Summer?

For my card I used stencils , clear stamps , organza ribbon and

a leaf die.

I started making the background with  the Sunray stencil by 

Funky Fossil Design. On a seperate piece of paper I made the coffee cup

with the Coffee Cup stencil by Funky Fossil Design. The disign on the

sleeve is the Leafy Mandala stencil that I have been playing with the past week.

I found some dies by Tim Holtz that look very much like the leaves

from the Leafy Mandala stencil and are perfect for decoration.

The sentiment is from Verve Stamps from my stash 

(her shop is unfortunately closed). The bees are from the clear set 

the Bees Knees from Funky Fossil Design. These are colored with

Stampin'Blends and a drop of glossy accent on the wings.

Thank you for looking,

stay safe and

keep crafting.

 

Simon Says: Party Time (2)

On the 

Simon Says Wednesday Blog

it is also Party Time!

Yesterday I had a Coffee Party at the

office, but not everyone is into coffee,

so I also made Tea Treatbags.

This is a special folded treat bag, where you can easily

add a bag of tea inside. You find the way to fold

this HERE. How I love Pinterest to find these folds!

These treat bag can hold 2 tea bags, but you can

also add a card and one tea bag.

So here is the other side with the card inside.

The image is a vintage printable

as it the tea time image on the card.

The background paper is by Stampin'Up!

And I stamped the year.

On the otherside a package of winter tea

is inside the pocket.

The sentiment is by Verve Stamps.

The teacup is by Studio Light

and a little text is just typed up

to make it for the New Year.

The treat bag sideways.

The top of the treat bag is punched with 

a star to add the ribbon through.

Thank you for looking

and have a creative day!

Simon Says: Party Time

I share with you the party favours I made for the 

coffee party at the office for the end of the year.

This package fold is one that has geen going round 

and you can find one of these tutorial HERE.

2019 Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop: day 7

Today I share my last 3 Artis Traiding Coins for the

Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.

Tomorrow I have some last cards for you.

Here are my 3 Summer coins.

All three have the same background: sun rays.

I first colored the 2,5 inch circles with fossilized amber distress

oxide ink. Next i took Tim Holtz rays stencil and colored

the rays with wild honeydistress oxide ink.

 #17 Easy Summer
I found this cup with sunglasses on the internet
and printed it twice. One is on the coin and from the other
I cut the sunglasses and added this with foam tape
to the first cup and added glossy accent to the glasses
to make them look more real.
The sentiment is from a Verve Stamps clear stamp set.

#18 Enjoy Summer

These fun cups I also found on the internet.

The succulents are stamps by a Club Scrap

stamp set with the same name.

The sentiment is a composition of some stamps

from my stash.

The flower is a sticky gemstone.

#19 Summer Coffee

All the stamps on this coin are by Verve Stamps.

Here i share with you how I keep my coins.

It is the same as I use for the Artist Trading Cards.

I added some digital coffee paper as background.

You see in these pockets all the coins I have made for

this coffee lovers blog hop. 

Thank you for looking

and have a brewtiful creative day!

Happy New Year!

It was a great coffee year 2018, so here a gris of some

of my postings from this year. So how about ending this year

with another coffee card:

With thiscard I say cheers to the New Year

and hope it brings you all what you dream of.

I made the card for the challenge

on the CAS-ual Fridays Blog.

The background of this card is embossed with the

Stampin'Up! knitted embossing folder. I colored it

with a little brushed corduroy distress oxide ink.

The cups are thinlits by Stampin'Up!, the sleeve

is a bit of  Tim Holtz design paper.

The numbers are rubber stamps by Michael Strong

embossed with gold embossing powder.

This sentiment is an old stamp by Club Scrap

(2006 After Five)

Inside the card I added a Verve Stamps sentiment

(unfortunately this shop closed) and behind the 

sentiment is a piece of embossed paper with the

Tim Holtz coffee cups.

I think this sentiment says it all and hope it counts for

all of you. Wishing you wonderful celebrations and 

see you soon in the next year with more coffee goodness!

Thanks for looking

and health and creativity for 2019!

Little gift find

Today I shopped at our local dollar store in The Netherlands,

here known as "Action" and found this cute glass candle

with the pot on top of the lid. I knew right away i wanted

to alter the labels.

Also I came across this rock idea somewhere on a blog

and I just had to give it a try.

The images are digital images by Verve Stamps.

The candle inside the glass.

My first try, have to find all the right materials,

for i am not totally satisfied, but it does looks so cute.

It is just a rocjk from my garden.

Thanks for looking 

and have a creative day!
