Let´s Shop

Hello my Crafty Friends,

You know about my coffee addiction.

I srink Nesprsso coffee and this comes in capsules.

Recently Nespresso redesigned the capsules and the

boxes in wich they come.

So back to cutting up these capules as I have done 

before to make them into flowers to use on my cards

I have a more detailed )with pictures' explanation HERE.

I use these punches and emboss punch to make the flowers.

Here is the finished card with embossed beans in the background.

I used Wendy Vecchi´s Lets Shop stamp set again.

Perfect for adding a gift card if you want.

On the cups I used the decoration of the variety of 

boxes for different tastes.

 

Here the inside of the card, using the left over scraps.

And of course a fun backside of the card.

For this card I used two sided design paper from my scraps.

On one side i stamped the purse and cut it out. Not using it here

as a gift bag, just stuck it to the background,

The cup was left over from Saturdy´s card!

A close up to the flower made out of the metal from the

coffee capsule. My favorite Vienna Linizio Longo.

Thank you for looking,

stay safe and keep crafting!

Treat Yourself

Hello Crafty Friends,

Today my new inks from Tim Holtz arrived and

 a new stamp set from Wendy Vecchi, so I had to play!!

So for this card I used:

Tim Holtz Salvaged Patina (super new color!!)

Wendy Vecchi Let´s Shop stamp, die and stencil set

Thinlits set Crochet 664178

Thinlits set Funky Foliage 663087

So this set by Wendy Vecchi came with 

stamps, dies and a stencil.

I started by cutting out that cute purse abd decorated

it with the dots stencil. Of course I used the  new

Salvaged Patina distress oxide ink.

For the background I cut this lacy border

to give it a real feminine touch. I used the 

cut out as a template and then I glued it

to the the background. Again with the

new Salvage Patina color. 

To finish the card I added a flower decoration to the bag

 and inside there is a coffee gift card.

Of course it needed a coffee cup (decorated with

the stencil). You know my addiction ;-)

I want to enter my card on the

Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge:

Feminine

Thank you for looking,

stay safe and keep crafting!

Hanukkah Gift Card

This is a gift card for Hanukkah.

Hanukkah is a Jewish Holiday and this year 

celebrated from December 22nd until December 30th.

This gift card I enter in  the Anything Goes challenge

on the Simon Says Wednesday Challenge.

To make the basic of the card I usesd 2sided 

scrap paper and my Brother Scan n Cut machine.

It comes with an online program called Canvas.

This gift card can you find in this program.

On the front of the card I used a few rubber stamps

for decoration by Zum Gali Gali.

Here you see the backside of the card.

Inside this card there is a pocket (came with the template)

and I decorated this with letters I also cut out with my

Brother machine. Then there is enough place left

to write a personal message.

Perfect pocket for a coffee gift card ;-)

Thank you for looking

and have a creative day!

Coffee Gift Card

I just got a new block of design papers,

all kinds of purple designs, so perfect for

the next challenge.

The color challenge over at the

Color Throwdown Blog.

And when I saw the sketch on the 

Sketch Saturday Blog,

I had an idea for my card.

I have this pocket die in my stash and

i cut out the pocket and from one design

and the rectangle from another piece.

With the Tim Holtz coffee die I made this cup

with grey paper and some left over design paper.

For the background I used the Tim Holtz

coffee cup embossing folder with kraft paper

and some purple distress ink.

Some stamping with Altenew's coffee ring stamp.

Here you see the finished card.

Inside the pocket there is a coffee gift card

and the cup. On the back of the cup you can

write a personal wish.

The purple crinkle ribbon in the background

is by  DL.ART.

Thank you for looking

and have a creative day!

Hanukkah and Coffee Lovers Blog Hop day 7a

Today I have another card for you on the

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.

It is also Hanukkah all week and for

Hanukkah I usually give all my children

a money gift. These gift card pockets

from Create with TLC are just perfect.

Here is one card I made with the much loved

stampset from Stampin'Up! called Festival Fun.

This set is from 2004 and unfortunately not

available anymore.

I combined it with this gift pocket card from

Paulette from Create with TLC

and she told me I could share it with you all.

Of course inside the pocket is a coffee gift card!

See the by holding already his Hanukkah cup with coffee.

Of course I used for decoration one of  the gift

cards I received from one of my friends from 

the Facebook Coffee group, for here in The Netherlands

Starbucks has no gift cards.

The dreidel is one of the games that are especially played with

Hanukkah. To learn more about this game go HERE.

All the images are colored with pencil and the background paper

is also from Create with TLC.

Thank you for looking

and hope to see you back tomorrow

on the last day of the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.

Have a latte creative day!

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop day 1

Welcome to another fun week for

coffee/tea and chocolate lovers!

The blog hop is here again and that means sharing

your own cards, projects etc with this theme

and share it on the

  Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog

and you might win one of the wonderful prizes.

You can share every day or as many times as you wish

in the week of November 30 until December 7.

For my first project I have used some digital 

images from Create with TLC.

For my gift pocket I used the free images

that you can find HERE. The pocket is exactly 

the right size for a gift card.

The background paper is also one that I have from 

Create with TLC's winter collection.

The piece I had to cut from the front pannel

is used inside the card.

The snowflake is a bigz die by Tim Holtz.

I cut the flake from light blue paper, added

some vintage brown ink on the edges and

added a little glitter glue on the snowflake.

Thank you for looking

and hope to see you back tomorrow.

Have a latte great day!

National Coffee Day

As it is National Coffee Day in the US,

I just have to make a card with a coffee theme.

How about coffee an apple pie?

Made this gift card with Club Scrap hybrid and real papers.

Inside it looks like this with a pocket for 

the coffee gift card.

So what you need for the card is a piece of

cardstock 10.5 x 4,25 inch.

This you score at 2 and 5.25 inch.

At the pocket end I used a die to create this

pocket. If you do not have this die, you can also 

use various punches - even a circle punch.

Here the front card with the pie.

The paper is printed from the 

Club Scrap Tapestry Hybrid kit.

Next I cut out a circle and a scalloped

circle to make the pie. The circle is embossed 

with a Stampin Up woven embossing folder.

Doesn't it look exactly like a pie?!

The cup is cut with the coffee dies by

Stampin' Up!

The top sentiment is a rubber stamp

from Club Scrap's Tapestry kit

and added stamps from

(coffee & beans).

The coffee ring is a very loved 

Club Scrap Mocca Java wooden

stamp (vintage).

So I am ready for my apple pie now.

The grandkids helped me making it.

Thank you for looking,

enjoy your coffee

and have a creative day!
