Coffee Lovers Blog Hop - Day 7

Welcome coffee loving crafty friends,

Have you seen all the wonderful artwork at

the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop?

And all the fun prizes there are to win?

For my card today I used 

Honey Bee Perfect Blend clear  stamp set

and Newton's Nook Slothy Coffee.

I started out by stamping the word coffee

with versamark and used clear embossing powder.

After spraying the pannel with Kitch Flamingo distress spray

(one of my favorites these days!) and using a piece of paper towel

to rub the words clean, I got this beautiful background.

The cute little beans from the same set are stamped in brown distress oxide ink.

As for the slothy, he is colored with Stampin'Blends

and cut out by hand. I found this lovely metal clock

in one of my drawers waiting to be used!

Thank you for looking!

Stay safe, keep crafting

and enjoy your coffee!

 

Saturday card: Time

Today a more masculine card.

I use Michael Strong's

Art Deco Design stamp.

It comes with female heads,but this

time I changed it into a man's card.

I stamped the large image on kraft paper

and embossed it with copper colored embossing powder.

The watch is a stamp from my stash

and that is embossed with black on silver paper.

The sentiment I made up with a SU! sentiment

and one from my stash. The banner is punched out.

On the left I covered the female head with a circle

that comes with the new Nonagon stamp and on the

right it is part of the circle stamp from a set that

is not available anymore. Now that I  looked at the

catalogue you can also use the cloisonné medaillions.

I want to enter my card for the

Word Art Wednesday Blog

Theme: use the word art or anything goes

Last time I was top 3,

so thank you for my badge:

Thanks for looking.

Have a creative day!

Tim Holtz January tag: Time

Yeah! Tim Holtz is continuing his tag inspirations

and started this month with a time piece for tags of 2014.

I absolutely love the tag and dher is my 

interpretation.

As I do not have the large clock and the embossingfolder

Tim is using, I used the pocket watch instead and

also some other embossing folders.

It is like you open your pocket watch to use the key

(on the ribbon on top) to wind the clockup - very

old fashiond way.

Here you see the key on the ribbon and the words 

I have chosen to add to the tag.

The sentiment on the bottom is a sentiment from

a Club Scrap kit from some years back.

Thanks for looking and leaving a comment.

Have a creative day!

Happy New Year

 

With this card I want to wish you all

a very Happy, Healthy and Creative

N e w   Y e a r.

May some of your dreams come true in
