I'm up on the <a href="http://coffeelovingcardmakers.com/" target="_blank">Coffee Loving Carmaker's </a>blog today and I have an easy peasy caffeinated creation to share with you!</p><p>As card makers do you ever get stuck on a technique and find yourself doing it on every card or every other card? It's like a rut that you just can't get out of because you love it so much? Well my technique is ink blending rainbow colored backgrounds and then stenciling over them with a bold pattern. Today's card is exactly that and I love how it turned out.</p><p><a href="http://coffeelovingcardmakers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/5695B0B5-7504-4748-A46C-7D842FB98C5E-1.jpeg"><img alt="" class="size-full wp-image-19021 aligncenter" height="960" src="http://coffeelovingcardmakers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/5695B0B5-7504-4748-A46C-7D842FB98C5E-1.jpeg" width="960" /></a><br />For my background I blended 4 colors of Distress Oxide Inks in:<br />Kitsch Flamingo, Squeezed Lemonade, Cracked Pistachio and Broken China.<br />Once that panel was all blended I took the coffee stencil from Sugar Pea Designs and used brown ink to stencil on the coffee beans and cute hearts.</p><p><a href="http://coffeelovingcardmakers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/6DFD1995-A783-45C8-9EB8-26190E262D7F.jpeg"><img alt="" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-19023" height="800" src="http://coffeelovingcardmakers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/6DFD1995-A783-45C8-9EB8-26190E262D7F.jpeg" width="800" /></a></p><p>For my main panel I wanted to keep it small and simple. I cut out a piece of white card stock using the A2 Diagonal Stitched Layered Card Topper from LDRS Creative and stamped my 3 images and sentiment.</p><p><a href="http://coffeelovingcardmakers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/5DBEF8B6-A8CA-41AB-AA9F-E37D003C6AED.jpeg"><img alt="" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-19022" height="800" src="http://coffeelovingcardmakers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/5DBEF8B6-A8CA-41AB-AA9F-E37D003C6AED.jpeg" width="800" /></a></p><p>The peace sign and heart are from an older Lilβ Inker stamp set and the coffee cup is from the La La Land Take it Sloth stamp set. Since I needed small letters I searched my stash for the perfect alphabet and came up with an older Stampin Up set called Rough Type. I just love the vintage typewriter feel of this set.</p><p><a href="http://coffeelovingcardmakers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/43768926-15F9-4A6C-A0AD-AD84A3E99CAF.jpeg"><img alt="" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-19024" height="800" src="http://coffeelovingcardmakers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/43768926-15F9-4A6C-A0AD-AD84A3E99CAF.jpeg" width="800" /></a></p><p>I'm loving this technique for quick and easy backgrounds that just make me smile! I don't think I'll be giving it up anytime soon!</p><p>Thanks so much for joining me today on the blog! I hope you have an amazing Tuesday and don't forget to get yourself some PEACE, LOVE and COFFEE!</p><p>Have a great day, I already am!</p><p>Lisa</p>Lisahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09493498868407452490noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1818215817143634481.post-78469181563293444532022-03-08T08:00:00.001-05:002022-03-08T08:00:00.226-05:00Inlaid Die-Cutting<p style="text-align: center;"> <img alt="" src="https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0986/1956/files/All_Cards_angled_480x480.jpg?v=1646113012" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; text-align: center;" /></p><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; text-align: center;">Hello friends!

This may not be a new technique for some of you but this was my first time and it was so much fun!<br /><br /></div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; text-align: center;">It all started with the <a href="https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=1057225&u=1919824&m=73969&urllink=ldrscreative%2Ecom%2Fcollections%2Ffebruary%2D2022%2Dcollection%2Fproducts%2Fpretty%2Dthings%2Dcoverplate%2Ddie%2Diii&afftrack=" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Pretty Things Coverplate Die III</a>. This die in particular lends itself perfectly to this technique. I chose to use the whole die for one card and part of the die for another card, I'll explain below.<br /><br /></div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;

font-size: 15px; text-align: center;">The process is the same for all the cards but less work for the second pair.</div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;

As you all know teaching is one of the many jobs that became infinitely more challenging when COVID hit. Taylor has been working way too many hours every week past her contracted time just to give her students everything they deserve..... sadly it leaves very little personal time. Despite Taylor's lack of personal time she still agreed to be my Coffee Date for today.</p><p>Taylor is a planner girl at heart and she loves all things planner related! She agreed to do a planner layout for the week of Valentine's Day and make it coffee themed. But of course real life got in the way and her layout as of tonight was only half done. As she sat writing an IEP for a meeting tomorrow she felt guilty about not finishing her planner layout for our coffee date. I am going to share the gorgeous layout she started and as you can see she has a COFFEE CUP sticker on Friday the 18th to signify our "date". Taylor is a big fan of the <a href="https://www.erincondren.com/lifeplanner?sscid=21k6_i5o97">Erin Condren Life Planner</a> and Krissyanne Design's stickers and she uses them frequently in her layouts. Taylor's Instagram account is @prettypaperpieces4u if you'd like to check out all of her other amazing layouts!</p><p>Here is a picture of her layout and I am in love with the color scheme and adorable stickers she used for the week of Valentine's Day! Notice the AWESOME "Drink Wine Day" on the 18th!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEg2ZHMrUmiBVt3t6VgbswwlmzczGrgNhLeKBp89JcRmFduIDM7JO2F0xcGGAitqBvxvf8X2jHinM4ADhhmdoBxS6YuogUuqGGyBI9EDP9rZ7Xq06Zl5NyJxiVQ8aEdBzaUTzEOdYE_bNN86NZ6qQLwuSxr6eNaFk3NIe1xTp_DrcVH8bejZcIF8qt1O9A=s3522" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2445" data-original-width="3522" height="444" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEg2ZHMrUmiBVt3t6VgbswwlmzczGrgNhLeKBp89JcRmFduIDM7JO2F0xcGGAitqBvxvf8X2jHinM4ADhhmdoBxS6YuogUuqGGyBI9EDP9rZ7Xq06Zl5NyJxiVQ8aEdBzaUTzEOdYE_bNN86NZ6qQLwuSxr6eNaFk3NIe1xTp_DrcVH8bejZcIF8qt1O9A=w640-h444" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p>In keeping with the Valentine's Day theme I decided to make a love themed card that sums up my relationship with Taylor. We definitely go together like coffee and donuts! We craft together and support each other's hobbies. She attended Creativation with me and I am attending Go Wild with her next month. Go Wild is a huge planner convention that takes place once a year for the die hard planner fans.</p><p>For my card today I used the adorable <a href="https://www.not2shabbyshop.com/Yum-Yum--Clear-Stamp-N2S_p_16102.html">Yum Yum stamp set from the Not 2 Shabby Shop</a>. That little hamster is just adorable and her little hands hold lots of little accessories.

It's Lisa here with you and today I'm taking a trip down memory lane thanks to a new app I just downloaded on my phone. It's called Color My Life and I'm using it to catalog all of my stamps and dies. One of the first stamp companies I discovered and fell in love with when I started card making was Papertrey Ink. Recently I was entering a stamp set into the app called Warm Happiness and I decided to use it for today's post. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgAF2VmlQNqGCGrQE-JeCcu9QzrrNOHmVe9znQG9gepyp7NMhPdTesI02wP0IJxz48qBrC9fuQ3BnV1OJSXvWFP36dvMKXExGiaOWi2hhktLUeeYKT_mNiyYCh5wfM7fP-OctNBerqqP5_JgbXQwEh5NHesAjpLV0WH6bQ8jMLAa-Xv6BWbMYGuTdJmxA=s800" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="800" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgAF2VmlQNqGCGrQE-JeCcu9QzrrNOHmVe9znQG9gepyp7NMhPdTesI02wP0IJxz48qBrC9fuQ3BnV1OJSXvWFP36dvMKXExGiaOWi2hhktLUeeYKT_mNiyYCh5wfM7fP-OctNBerqqP5_JgbXQwEh5NHesAjpLV0WH6bQ8jMLAa-Xv6BWbMYGuTdJmxA=w640-h640" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;">I really love the vintage shabby feel of this card!

I added a koozie and a lid to each cup in coordinating colored card stock. Next it was time to add lots of fun elements to decorate the cups.

I used an old Martha Stewart snowflake punch from my stash to cut out some sparkly snowflakes. I punched a hole in the middle of them and threaded them on to some twine. Next I punched out a small tag from a Karen Burniston die set I have and stamped To and From on each tag with an older Lawn Fawn stamp set. The last element I threaded on to the twine was a cute little jingle bell that gave so much character to each tag. The last thing I added to each tag was a little sprig of greenery to add a festive element.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyVq_wmpSD41bDB8M-nPK5Qx6ZZ_qnKP6hT-UH7SWMbu9GPglgnjt8r2W2jBANm-M8QEF07ob08yQcpe4vs4jFNxnCMNhez-EHon70Gqx9T-gP4CB0btJoz7VvZNcf6LNd5W70sEz2ySjN/s2048/CLC+11%253A30%253A21+C.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="2048" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyVq_wmpSD41bDB8M-nPK5Qx6ZZ_qnKP6hT-UH7SWMbu9GPglgnjt8r2W2jBANm-M8QEF07ob08yQcpe4vs4jFNxnCMNhez-EHon70Gqx9T-gP4CB0btJoz7VvZNcf6LNd5W70sEz2ySjN/w640-h640/CLC+11%253A30%253A21+C.PNG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I really enjoyed making these tags because I had no actual plan in mind and I just kept layering lots of elements til I was happy with the design.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I think I'll decorate a gift card sized envelope with these tags and give out some Starbucks or Dunkin cards in them.

Next I measured a piece of white card stock to 5 1/4" x 4" so it was just slightly smaller than the black layer. I used the <a href="https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=199868&u=1919824&m=24698&urllink=www%2Esimonsaysstamp%2Ecom%2Fproduct%2FHero%2DArts%2DCling%2DStamp%2DSCRIPT%2DBold%2DPrints%2DCG830%2Dcg830ha%3Fcurrency%3DUSD&afftrack=" target="_blank">Hero Arts Script Bold Prints background stamp</a> to stamp a partial image along the left side of my white layer. To do this I tore a scrap piece of paper in a wonky pattern to mask off the white card stock leaving a random pattern when I stamped the script print.

It muted the color of the teal and gave the vellum some stability and allowed me to apply foam tape to the back without being able to see it.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiE2uOM6zX5TKSIGare3NrcBhWieB66FIiQnDp8TmNeg1J_L9oa9MfDAd0HQDVTVn9cna2uSb2i2WKLKwPg1v6McTcVRumL4M7JZBPrWr_wn-gKYVtbs96ZVMeukexrC4M4pkhu-GNuDpvK/s2048/CLC+8%253A24%253A21+closeup+B.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="2048" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiE2uOM6zX5TKSIGare3NrcBhWieB66FIiQnDp8TmNeg1J_L9oa9MfDAd0HQDVTVn9cna2uSb2i2WKLKwPg1v6McTcVRumL4M7JZBPrWr_wn-gKYVtbs96ZVMeukexrC4M4pkhu-GNuDpvK/w640-h640/CLC+8%253A24%253A21+closeup+B.PNG" width="640" /></a></p><p style="text-align: center;">Next I worked on the whipped cream on top of the cup. I stamped the whipped cream image onto white paper with kraft colored ink and applied a generous amount of snow paint. I heated it up with my heat gun so it would puff up to give the appearance of whipped cream. I applied several layers and heated after each one. I think I need a new snow pen because mine keeps coming out with lots of bubbles but it did the trick in a pinch.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidkZVXpgTLns01jeEQ3W_RneutotV5oTphT95kotqaqxEVj7ktRA7L2Oh8rzuAp1hczPrYiupF7sSYaEMT3uwZRJLAd8APrvffOq1BxTyvM9Dus2FXYj1wTD4ug4npj9_EQUgyxfiaRu9A/s2048/CLC+8%253A24%253A21+closeup+A.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="2048" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidkZVXpgTLns01jeEQ3W_RneutotV5oTphT95kotqaqxEVj7ktRA7L2Oh8rzuAp1hczPrYiupF7sSYaEMT3uwZRJLAd8APrvffOq1BxTyvM9Dus2FXYj1wTD4ug4npj9_EQUgyxfiaRu9A/w640-h640/CLC+8%253A24%253A21+closeup+A.PNG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;">For the background under the cup I did some recycling. You might recognize the patterned paper under the cup if you've ever placed an order with <a href="https://honeybeestamps.com/" target="_blank">Honey Bee Stamps</a>. Their stamps and dies come wrapped in this super cute kraft paper and I've always wanted to include it in one of my projects. I just love the look of white on kraft. I used a scalloped rectangle die from Neat and Tangled to cut it out. I just love how it looks under the mug!</p><p style="text-align: center;">Here's one more look at my card with the supplies used.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGi1W8x4-yCb-fEe4ZrprofNmD1XUi6rA5c6kZU21EuxKIF3DAMuJqoUgCYUQJFzNpQiHrCK3VvDFCEOr_XeFSPZJh2DW78y5jTQg16eXR6VB00J-YS2lZp-SmF021YrQ8VaQYQ5QJnAty/s2048/CLC+8%253A24%253A21+supplies.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="2048" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGi1W8x4-yCb-fEe4ZrprofNmD1XUi6rA5c6kZU21EuxKIF3DAMuJqoUgCYUQJFzNpQiHrCK3VvDFCEOr_XeFSPZJh2DW78y5jTQg16eXR6VB00J-YS2lZp-SmF021YrQ8VaQYQ5QJnAty/w640-h640/CLC+8%253A24%253A21+supplies.PNG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;">Thanks so much for stopping by today!
