Hello everyone… Yay for Friday! Welcome to the Coffee Loving Cardmakers collaboration blog hop with one of our super sponsors, Divinity Designs. There are lots of inspirations and prize to win! Let’s get hopping!
This blog hop starts at Divinity Designs blog and Coffee Loving Cardmakers blog. And you should arrive from my coffee loving friend, Annette. I am pretty sure that you all are inspired by her amazing coffee projects.
And here are my coffee cards to share with you all today. On both of my cards, I used the newly released Perk Up (Stamp/Die Duo Set) and also their other coffee/tea collection dies – Beverage Cup Dies, and Cups and Mugs Dies.
On this first card, I used the with Leisure Arts Double Ended Markers and waterbrush. I used smooshing technique to create the watercolord background. I stamped the images on the watercolored paper with VersaFine Clair Pinecone Ink Pad. After that, I cut it using the Pierced Rectangles Dies. I added the cut out fames and paper on the card with 3D foam tape and permanent adhesive glue.
I cut out the cup and distressed the cup sleeve with sanding box. I added the cup and coffee die cuts on the card with permanent adhesive glue.
I stamped the sentiment, with VersaFine Clair Tulip Red and I added on the card with 3D foam tape.
This second card is no-stamping card, totally all dies. I used the Pierced Rectangles Dies, Layered Laceys Ovals Dies, and also the gorgeous Latte Love 6×6 Paper Pad for the background.

Helen, these cards are fabulous. I love the smooshed background on your first card. One of my favorite techniques. I love the dimension you got on your second card. I know for most people doing a card with just dies and paper would be easy but for me it is so hard. But the look is fabulous.
I love the great colors in your card! It looks awesome!
