Coffee Loving Cardmakers: Day 6

Hello fellow Coffeelovers!

This is a wooden rubber stamp by Penny Black colored

with watercolor and the cup is a little die I had lying around, 

not knowing from which set it belongs too.

The sentiment is by The Cat's Pajamas Paper Arts.

On the blog they have a wonderful freebie for the coffee hop.

This sentiment i have already for a very long time!

The paper in the background is from de Spring catalogue

from Stampin'Up!

Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog Hop - Day 5 more

I have been busy today and have to share this other project

I made today. As I am still reorganizing (not only my craftroom)

I came across an album with instructions for a microwave

I do not have anymore. I nearly threw it away and then......

why not recycle it!

Perfect project for the 

Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog Hop.

Here you see the finished album. I used all Club Scrap

materials from different coffee kits over the years.

This was the album before recycled.

I started decorating the album with Mocha Java papers

and on the back of the book a strip from the more

recent Coffeehouse kit.

Here the inside. Not finished yet. For a next post!

The red ribbon is also Coffeehouse. The background

is stamped with several rings, beans and cups.

Inside I added some plastic pockets, so I can 

add some artwork inside. 

Enough other project to think of!

Thank you for looking.

Stay safe, enjoy your coffee

and keep krafting!

Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog Hop: Day 5

Good morning coffeelovers!

Have you shared your card with the coffee hop?

Want to know all the details how to add your card and 

can win a prize from one of the great sponsors go to the

Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog.

Here my card with a combination of stamps by Technique Junkies

and stencil by Club Scrap and Tim Holtz.

I was inspired by Tim Holtz, who is sharing many techniques

every Saturday , If you did not know this, or missed one of

the Facebook live video's you can see them all on his blog HERE.

Today I was inspired by the video of the Distress Spray's.

I sprayed several colors of ink on the craft mat.

Next I used the craft mat as an inkpad

and stamped the coffee bean (Technique Junkie) stamp

on the paper.

When you add water to the stamp, you can use it again.

Here are the three backgrounds that came of this.

For the card I used the lightest background and started

with the word coffee with a Club Scap stencil.

Next I used the Tim Holtz coffee stain stencil.

The cat and the sentiment are by Technique Junkies

and are stamped on top with Versafine Onyx Black.

More Tim Holtz tecniques will follow for sure.

Thanks for looking.

Keep safe, enjoy your coffee

and keep crafting!

with stampin'blends and matted and glued to the card.

The sentiment is by Alt&New.

Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog Hop - Day 4 more!

Hello Tea-lovers,

here for you some tea ideas as part of the

Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog Hop.

Of course it is not only coffee, but also tea, cocoa.

For all details and prizes to win take a look at the blog.

This time I made the gift pockets with a tea theme.

These pockets are great for two or three tea bags.

I found the instructions HERE

All materials are Stampin'Up! Sorry but not available

in the current catalogue. The stamp and die set is called

A Nice Cuppa. Maybe online you can find this set.

The decorations for all these gift pockets are so easy

to do. Here I used the teapot die and design paper.

A teabag and a sentiment and decoration is finished.

Here I used the cup die and a dotted embossing folder.

The spoon is also with the set as a die, but not s a stamp.

The sentiment on a scalopped circle (whisch is a punchby SU!).

Here the 3rd one. This one was the easiest,

This is a stamp from the set and stamped with two

colors of green and cut out. Taped to the pocket and that's it.

Hope you like these ideas.

Thanks for looking,

stay safe, drink coffee or tea

and keep crafting!
