Hello and welcome to the Coffee Loving Cardmakers and Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps Collaboration Blog Hop! Today, we have a lot of fun projects to share with you all and also giveaway!!!
This collaboration blog hop is sponsored by the one of our coffee loving Super Sponsors, Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps. They have great collection for coffee, tea and cocoa. You can check them all here.
Here are my two coffee cards for this blog hop. I am inspired by the color combo from the bloghop promo image above:
On my first card, I used the I like Big Cups Clear Stamp Set, Coffee Talk 2 Clear Stamp Set, and Texture Tiles 9 Clear Stamp Set.
I stamped the mug image and sentiment on white cardstock using Catherine Pooler Ink Pads (Aguatini, Over Coffee, Black Jack). And then I fussy cut it with scissors.
For the banner, I stamped the script with Over Coffee ink pad and cut it with the Large Banner Dies from Divinity Designs. I tied up some twine on top of this banner.
I added the pattern paper and stamped banner on card with permanent adhesive and I used 3D foam tape to add the mug on the card.
My second card is a slimline card and I used the Texture Tiles 9 Clear Stamp Set and Happy Mail, the January Stamp of Month.
For the base mat, I cut out a piece of white cardstock using the Wavy Slimline Framelit Dies from Dare 2B Artzy. I added the Aquatini ink on it with a large oval blending brush. I added on the card base with permanent adhesive.
Next, I stamped the coffee beans with Over Coffee ink pad on a white cardstock. Then, I cut it with the smaller die from the D2BA slimline framelit dies. I added it on the card with 3D foam tape.
I cut out a white cardstock with the banner die from the same D2BA slimline framelit dies and I stamped the sentiment on it with Over Coffee ink pad. I added on the card with permanent adhesive.
I stamped the images from Happy Mail set with the Aquatini ink pad and Black Jack ink pad on white cardstock and then I fussy cut them. I colored the hearts with alcohol marker. I added them on top of the sentiment banner with permanent adhesive and small gluedots.

I really like both of these cards! And the colors, especially.
Loving your cards! I love the shades of blue in both the cards, and the teeny-tiny background bits – the script and the coffee beans(?). Definitely cards that would bring a smile to one’s face!

Your cards are lovely Helen; teals, turquoise, aqua… they are my favorites and I love the colors paired with them. I adore the “Life Happens, Coffee Helps” because it is so so true sometimes. LOL My morning cup of coffee always starts my day off on the right sip-step… a cherished daily moment for me with a Blessing and Prayer. Thank you so much for sharing and please stay safe.
