Coffee lovers Spring Blog Hop: Day 8

Today another gift idea for the

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop

It is the last day,but my head is full of new ideas

from all the fantastic card I have seen the

past week on all the blogs.

Here is a bag I made for a friend who

loves coffee and her cat.

My friend has a Nespresso machine,

so I needed a bag to put the tubes of coffee in.

Not just a bag...no a decorated bag.

I started to stamp the coffee rings in the background

and I embossed the cups to make a background for 

the images I wanted to use.

On the handle you see one of the charms I made and offered 

on the first day as a giveaway. Have you entered?

Go HERE and leave a comment. On Monday I will anounce

5 winners,for I have made 5 coffee charms.

Next to the charm you see one of Tim Holtz

Crazy birds. I stamped it on purple paper,colored with

distress markers and cut it out.

The cup is a sizzix die from Tim Holtz and you see one of the

Crazy Cats.I stamped it him on one of my scraps and added

a little color extra with pencil.

The sentiment I made up with one of the sentiments from

Tim Holtz and the 2nd part typed with my computer.

The cupis die cutted out of some flowery paper

that on the backside had the lovely

blue and white color to make up a Spring cup.

The sentiment is from the same set ast the

little birdie. The stamp set is called Crazy Talk.

Inside the bag of course a card for my friend.

The cardis inspired by the sketch from the

Freshly Made Sketches Blog.

The white background is embosed with coffee beans.

and the ribbon is from the Mocha Latte ribbon set

by Diane Larson HERE.

The squares are all stamped with the coffee

mug from Tim Holtz and all have another color

and a sticky gemstone in the middle.

The stamp set is called mini blueprints 9.

The sentiment is from Create a Smile

clear stamps. The set is called Coffee First.

I had so much funthis week,

I want to thank Amy Tsuruta and her team

very much for all the organizing.

Thank you for looking,

I cut them with a die from Memorybox. I added these flower

stamens on the back with foam tape and made the dots with 

a white gelpen. Tomorrow is the last day of the blog hop.

Coffee tags and paper lace

Welcome to another Club Scrap Blog Hop

by the Club Scrap Arist Team.

I hope you came over here from

Pam's Blog

and seen her beautiful artwork.

As I am playing along also with the

Coffee Lovers Blog

The theme for all the artwork will be coffee

(and I think you are not surprised!).

The technique challenge we were given is to use

the paperlace and or the tags that came with

the Club Scrap March kit challed Paris Fleamarket.

You find these product in the shop here.

It was fun to play with them.

Here you can see all the projects that I made.

2 cards and a coffee tray.The color scheme of

Paris Fleamarket is just so wonderful for these projects.

First the cards.

For both of themI used part of the paper lace as a stencil.

The coffee cupstamps are from Club Scrap's

Coffee Break unmounted rubber stamps.

So I took a piece of white paper,

worn lipstick distress inkpad and a blending tool.

I used the blending tool, to color the paperlace and 

color the paper behind it. I did this twice and turned the corner,

so together it looks like a square.

Now the background paper for the card looks

like this. I cut of the colored corner ofthe

paper lace and used it to cover the white part

of the card,making it look like acovered

table. I cut of the outside of the paper and 

used it to cover the top of the table.

The sentiment is from the unmounted rubber stamps

from Paris Fleamarket. The cups are stamped

with worn lipstick distress ink and embossed with

clear embossing powder..The flowers are punched

with a SU! punch and two sizes are layered and

fastned with a button from the kit.

The cardis finished of with a ribbon from the kit.

Card #2  also started with using the paper lace as a stencil.

This time I put the white paper in a box and used

silver Perfect Pearl mist for spraying through the paper

lace to the background paper. I also used the 

part of the corner twice to make a square in the background.

Then I cut of the corner and als folded it around the card

tomake it look like the table.

This time I stamped the sentiment on one of the

tags. This sentiment and the cups  are from

the Coffee Break kit. The cups are embossed

with baby pink embossing powder. The coffee pot

is cut out with a die from Joy! crafts.

This time I used a pink embroidery thread  through

the paperlace as decoration

And now for the tray. This tray is about 8 x 5,5 inch.

Just right for 2 cups.I bought it in one of those cheap stores.

It ha a glass bottom,so you can add a picture in it.

So this is the finished tray. I used the other 2 parts of the

paperlace. First I cut a piece of 8 x 5,5 inch from the pink paper

that came with this kit. Then the paper lace and in the middle

a piece of black printed and pink printed paper. Again stamps from

the Coffee Break kit.

The cups are cut with dies I have from Taylored Expressions

and the flowers are from the same SU! punch as

before (it punches 3 flowers at the same time).

Next you find lots mor inspiration on

Jennifer's Blog

and if you loose your way,

you can always go back to the

Club Scrap Blog.

Thank you for looking.

Have a creative day!

and I also used on of Tim's stencil

on the burlap strip.

Stampabilities. It is a golden oldie.

Coffee Spring Blog Hop: Day 5

Today my coffee card for the 

Coffee Spring Blog Hop

was inspired by the challenge

on the Cupcake Inspiration Blog.

Such lovely spring colors.

And here is my card:

For thio card I used the cups and

sentiment by Lawn Fawn: love you a latte stamps.

The macarons is a clear stamp that came as a freebie

with my Craft Stamper Magazine.

The background is watercolor paper with a touch

of green watercolor paint. The cups and macarons

are colored with distress markers

The card is finished with a stamped sentiment in black

and some green baker's twine around the watercolor paper.

This is fastened to a light green card.

I also want to enter this cardfor the Monday Challenge

at the Simon Says Stamp Blog.

The theme is food and drink!

Technique challenge and I hope you come back

and a nice gift project.
