National Coffee Day 2021

 

Welcome Coffee Lovers! Today is National Coffee Day and we have been celebrating all week over at the Coffee Loving Cardmaker's blog! Here is a link to today's post explaining all of the festivities.

National Coffee Day Hop

There will be a hop featuring all of the Super Sponsors from this past week.

Today I am featuring a project using the Bear Cozy Kit from super sponsor Ellen Hutson.

This kit features enough materials to make TWELVE cozies!

* 10 piece die set

* 6 colors of Essentials by Ellen Wool Felt 8 1/2" x 11"

*6 colors of DMC Floss

* Large vinyl mesh zippered storage pouch

I made 2 projects with this kit and I absolutely adore them!

One is a traditional teddy bear and the other is a unicorn.

For the teddy bear cozy I used all of the dies included in the kit and added some pearls for extra cuteness! I just love how the bow looks on the bear's head.

For the unicorn I paired the dies in the set with a few extra dies in my stash to make the unicorn.

I love how VERSATILE this set is and can be incorporated into almost any animal with a little bit of imagination.

Check out all of the Coffee Lovers DT projects today to see how many other animals you can spot!

For my first project to start off the hop I have a cute little mini slimline card and

I've used stamps and dies from several of the Super Sponsors!

How adorable is that cute little bunny on my card!!!

You must check out the sweet digital images from Super Sponsor Isabel Cristina on Etsy!

This bunny is from the Coffee Bunnies digital set and comes with 5 different bunny images, 4 sentiments and several mini coffee cups.

For the base of my card I started with the Kat Scrappiness Mini Slimline Scalloped Edge Dies. I just love the mini size of these cards and the scalloped edge is my absolute favorite mini slimline die!

I cut out a piece of pink card stock using the largest scalloped die and then I stenciled over it with  

The Rabbit Hole Designs Splish Splash Stencil using a darker pink ink than the card stock.

Once I had that beautiful stenciled pattern I stamped over the entire panel with the

Unity Stamp Love Story stamp and I just love the way the text background stands out!

The next step was to add my Copic colored bunny to a Stitched Scalloped Heart from Kat Scrappiness and I cut it out of a piece of vellum so you can see through to the background.

To add the sentiments from the Coffee Bunnies digital set, I just printed them out a few times until I got the size I wanted and then cut them down and adhered them to the card on foam tape.

To finish off my card and add some shine I adhered some 

Kat Scrappiness Sparkling Clear Heart Droplets.

I really love how this card came out and I just love working with digital images because you can customize them to whatever size you need.

Make sure to check out Isabel's Etsy shop for more cute images!

Thank you to all of the Super Sponsors taking part in the hop and a big shout out to the Sponsors that made my card possible!
