Thursday Coffee Break | Thanks A Latte Card

I love Fall Season and I cannot wait to go out and sit on our back porch, sipping my coffee and enjoying the colorful Fall leaves. As you can see on today’s card, I am inspired by Fall leaves and coffee!

I made using stamp sets from Close To My Heart, Chris is one of our super sponsors.

On the background, I used the Thoughtful Critters Stamp Set. I stamped the leaves and mushrooms on a piece of watercolor paper using VersaFine Black ink pad and then colored them with watercolor paints. I added some splatters paint on it with fan brush.

And then I added some Distress Vintage Photo ink around the edges with Sponge Dauber.

On a white cardstock, I stamped the coffee cup, cup sleeves, and sentiment from Whole Latte Love Stamp Set with CTMH Intense Black ink pad, and then I colored them with alcohol markers.

I cut out a frame using 2 rectangle dies and I added it on the card with permanent adhesive glue. I added the cup and sentiment on the card with 3D foam tape.

Can you feel the Fall is in air now???

I shared this card also at the Coffee Loving Cardmakers blog. I hope you all have a fabulous day. Thanks for stopping by!

Mermazing Slimline Birthday Card

Hello artsy friends! Today, I wanna share this mermazing birthday slimline card with you all. This is a quick, clean and simple card to make for a Summer birthday theme.

I cut out 2 colors of glitter cardstock using the Slim Mini Birthday Die set. I stacked them together with the strong permanent adhesive glue. These glitter cardstock are glossy so require a strong adhesive. After the glue dried, I added them to the slimline card base with permanent adhesive.

I stamped the 2 mermaid images from the Mermazing Stamp Set on white cardstock with Artzy Ink Totally Black, dried the ink with a craft heater, and then cut them with the matching Mermazing Die. I colored them with alcohol markers and added them to the card with thin 3D foam tape.

That’s it, quick and easy, right? I hope this card gives you a splash of Summer at the end of this season. You can check out the Make Waves Collection to use for your projects.

Breezy Blossom Slimline Card

Hello everyone… Today, I have a slimline card to share with you all. I made this Breezy Blossom Hello slimline card using one of my new favorites from D2BA: Breeze Blossoms Stamp Set and Breezy Blossoms Die set.

One way of creating backgrounds is using stamps. These matching stamp and die sets are perfect for creating your own floral background. I stamped the 3 flower images on white cardstock with Artzy Ink Totally Black, dried them with a craft heater, and then cut them with the matching dies. I did this step a couple of times to have a bunch of flowers. After that, I colored them with alcohol markers.

I added the flower one by one on the slimline card base with dries-clear adhesive glue, and then I cut the extra around the edges with scissors.

I cut 2 pieces of white cardstock using 2 sizes of the Rectangle Slimline Framelit Dies and stacked them together with dries-clear adhesive glue to create the white frame. I added it to the card with double-sided tape.

For the sentiment, I used the Hello Word Die set. I cut the base with white cardstock. Then, I cut the word hello out of yellow cardstock three times and I stacked them together with the dries-clear adhesive glue to make the thin chipboard word. I glued it on the base and then added it to the card with the same glue.

Hello everyone… It is the first Sunday of the month and we have a new challenge for you at Dare 2B Artzy Blog. This August theme is Shaped or Fun Fold Cards.

For this August Artzy Challenge, I made this Sea Horses Pop Up card.

For the card base, I use the Pop Up Feature Die set. It is a fun die set to use to make fun fold cards. The patterned paper I used is one of the gorgeous Make Waves Collection Variety Paper Pack.

The stamped set I used is the Sea Horses Stamp Set, one of the products of the Make Waves Collection. This collection is perfect for Summer projects! I stamped the sea horses and sentiment on a white card with Totaly Black Artzy Ink, dried the images craft heater, and colored them with alcohol markers.

This pop-up card folds flat and fits inside a regular A2 envelope. It is mail friendly… I hope this project gives you an idea to join our artzy monthly challenge.

No Stamping Sunflower Card

Hi crafty friends! Today, I have a quick card idea to share with you all. It is a no-stamping card that you can easily make simply with patter papers, die sets, and embellishments. Also, you can make it a batch of cards for your card stocks, ready to send out.

I used one of the Everything is Blooming Variety Pack. This pack is my new favorite that has gorgeous pattern papers that you will love, too. I used the Field of Hope pattern paper on this card. I cut the paper into 5.25 inches x 12 inches, and then I cut it to 4 inches. I got 3 background papers to make 3 cards.

I cut a piece of the same paper (the polka dot pattern on the other side) with the tag die from the Mini Hugs Tags Die. I added the tag on the card and then embellished it with a twine ribbon.

I cut out the sentiment word with the hugs die from the same die set out of white and black cardstock, then glued them together. I added it to the card with permanent glue. Then I embellished the card with some sequins.

Isn’t this card that quick and easy to make? I hope this can give you an idea for your crafting time with D2BA’s beautiful papers.
