dies from Karen Burniston!

Coffee Loving Cardmakers / Trinity Collaboration



Good morning and welcome back to my blog crafty friends!
Today the Coffee Loving Cardmakers and Trinity Stamps are teaming up 
to bring you a collaboration hop using their brand new stamp set:
 "Frappy Camper's Perking Spot"
This is a fun coffee themed stamp set that was the brainchild of the Coffee Lovers 
and Trinity design teams.  The girls from both teams spent a lot of time 
collaborating and tossing around ideas for a stamp set that was coffee themed
and centered around an "on the go" coffee shop and WALLA!
The  "Frappy Camper's Perking Spot" was born.


The card I made today uses this stamp set and the Trinity Coffee Mug Card Die Set
and the Layered Coffee Bean Stencil.
I thought the boy and girl images from the set would look really cute on the 
Mug backed by the coffee bean background.
Here is my card for today:


This set was a lot of fun to work with and it was a great opportunity to collaborate
with Trinity stamps for a fun hop.
There will be a $20 gift certificate to be selected from participating blogs.
You must comment on all the blogs to be eligible for the prize.
Commenting will close on 10/22 at 11:59 PM (PST)
Winner will be announced on 10/26 on the Trinity Blog.

Here is the hop list for you to follow along:

#wideawake


I'm up on the Rabbit Hole blog today with a really tired Owl!
He definitely looks like how I feel today! It was a busy weekend but a fun weekend
so I don't mine a little sleep deprivation!  I had a fun crafty weekend and spent
time with my daughter's for a girls weekend away.

I thought it would be cute to put the Caffeinated Owl
on to his very own coffee mug.


I really like how he looks and the sentiment #wideawake cracks me up!
I used the caffeine molecule for the background of the mug.

Thanks so much for stopping by the blog today!

The Rabbit Hole/Therm O Web Collaboration




Hello crafty friends and welcome back to my blog!
I am so excited because I am up on The Rabbit Hole blog today with something fun!
The Rabbit Hole Designs has teamed up with Therm O Web to bring you some awesome
projects! Today I have 2 fun cards to share with you using the Rainbow and Teal Decofoil.
I had so much fun with the Decofoil because I've never used it before.
Once I foiled one or two images I was hooked and the dog and cats were lucky I didn't foil them too!

Here is my first card using the Rainbow Decofoil and the Sofishticated
stamp set from The Rabbit Hole Designs.



For my first card I decided to try foiling an image printed from my laser printer.
Since I knew that the Decofoil would stick to toner I had the idea to stamp an image
in black ink and scan it into my laser printer.  Once the printer printed out the scanned image
I ran it through my laminator with the Rainbow Decofoil and watched the magic happen.
The results were stunning!  As always with foiling on cards, it's so hard to capture the true
shine and magic in a a photograph.  Those of you who have tried foiling and photographing
know what I mean. The Zentangle style of the fish in the Sofishticated stamp set really pick
up the rainbow foil in such amazing detail. I was so impressed with the results of foiling
over the toner, I decided to foil the sentiment as well!



Here is the Seahorse on a bookmark from the same stamp set foiled the exact same way 
and I love it just as much as the pretty fish!



For my second card I decided to try foiling with a different technique.
I used the Decofoil Transfer Gel and the Teal Decofoil.
I used a wavy stencil and layered the transfer gel over top and let it dry over night.
The next morning I took the stenciled panel and laid the Teal Decofoil over it and sent it
through the laminator. Once again, amazing results!
I just love the Inky stamp set from The Rabbit Hole and I thought that
googly eyed octopus would look so good against all that shiny foiling!
I cut out a circular shape from the center of the wavy panel for this card and I used the rest
of the panel for another shaker card I'll share below.


There are so many ways to foil and they're all so much fun!
I used the leftover panel from the above card to make this awesome shaker card
once again using the Sofishticated stamp set.


You can really see the shine in this picture because of the way the light is hitting it.
Once again the shine is so impressive!

This was my first experience with foiling and I was surprised how easy it was to do!
There is plenty of inspiration on the Therm O Web website and tons of YouTube videos
to show you the many ways to achieve that beautiful shiny look!
A big thank you to Therm O Web for supplying our DT with products so 
that we could try out this fun technique!

Miss You a Latte


Welcome back to my blog crafty friends.
It's my day on the Coffee Loving Cardmaker's blog again today and I have
another card for you full of caffeinated inspiration.
Today I'm using a small coffee cup die on my card from the 
Hipster 1 dies from Spellbinders.
I just adore those little coffee cup dies with the mini koozies!


The polka dot patterned paper as well as the striped paper are old patterns 
from Papertrey Ink that I just adore!
I used the largest die from the Wonky Wavy Stitched Rectangle dies
from Kat Scrappiness to cut out the polka dot paper and then I inked the edges.

The light teal color is so soft and pretty.
The sentiment is from 2 different sets.
The stamped "Miss You A" part is from the Perfect Blend stamp set from 
Honey Bee stamps. The "latte" die cut is from the Sugar Pea Designs Coffee Words
die set.  I used Lawn Fawn Rose Gold embossing powder on some card stock and then 
cut the word latte out of that.  I also cut some very tiny hearts out of the rose gold
paper as well for the coffee cups.
I really like the soft color palette on this card!

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today, I just 
love creating my coffee themed cards for the 
Coffee Loving Cardmakers and I'll be back again real soon
with some more caffeine inspired creations!

Have a great day! I already am!

You Mocha Life Sweet!




Good morning crafty peeps!
Today on the blog I am sharing a new card using the new release from 
The Rabbit Hole Designs. I made a card using the brand new Caffeinated Butterfly!
I am in love with this image, there is so many fun parts to color in her wings!

Let's get right to the card, here is the recipe:

1) I started with a white piece of card stock and I used the blending brushes
from Taylored Expressions in Blueberry and Jelly Donut over the 
Puzzle Box stencil from The Rabbit Hole Designs.

2) Next I took the largest  Layering Nested Heart die from Kat Scrappiness
and cut a panel from the blended stencil pattern. I also cut a piece of black 
card stock from the Stitched Scalloped Heart Die to back the stenciled heart and really
make it pop!

3) I stamped the Caffeinated Butterfly with Gina K Amalagm ink so I could use
my Copic markers to color the butterfly in blues and purples to match the stenciled heart.

4) I used my Scan n Cut to cut out a black matte to put behind the butterfly so she would
really stand out on the white background.

5) For the sentiment I used the Perfectly Blended stamp set from  The Rabbit Hole Designs 
and stamped it using Versamark Ink and sprinkled Alabaster White embossing powder from
Brutus Monroe and melted the powder with my heat gun. I cut the sentiment out
using  the Simple Strips die from Taylored Expressions and popped it up on foam tape
towards the bottom right of the card.

6) I also popped up my Butterfly for extra dimension. I cut off part of the 
heart so it lined up with the edge of the card for a more organic look.

7) Last but certainly not least I addd some bling with some Purple Jewels from
Kat Scrappiness.



Don't forget The Rabbit Hole Stamps are also available at 
Kat Scrappiness
and
Simon Says Stamp!

I am loving this release and I have 3 more cards to share with you today using 
these stamp sets.

The first card uses the Caffeinated Owl and some Distress Oxide blending.
The coordinating sentiments really crack me up!


For my second card I used the Caffeinated Reindeer and I layered plenty of faux snow
along the snow banks of the card. Dashing through the NO! Gotta love it!


My last card for today features the Caffeinated Spider.  I fell in love with this little
guy the first time I laid eyes on him! I shared this card on my instagram a few weeks ago
