We are back from our camping trip and we totally had a fun weekend celebrating the best Dad my daughters have ever and the awesomest husband I have!

Today I’d like to share my second coffee card for Summer Coffee Lovers Bloghop. I CASE-ing the card from Precious Rememberance blog post:

And this is my card:

I stamped the coffee cup from Coffee Love Stamp set on pattern papers and white cardstock then I cut them with Micro-Tip Scissors. Then I stamped the sentiment on Vellum Paper with Archival Ink. Using Craft heater, I heat set the stamped sentiment on vellum because so it won’t smear when I touch (kindda clumsy and impatient to wait till it dries :D)

Then I stamped some of the images from Happy Art Stamp Set on the background with CTMH Exclusive Ink Pads: Pear, Crystal Blue, Pixie. I finished the card with some chocolate sequins that I got from Dollar Store.

This is not a bulky card eventhough the cup has some layers because of the fussy cutting.

THANK YOU for visiting me today and how you will have a blessed day!

Summer for us is all about tent camping, swimming in the lake, hiking and exploring the nature. And, We are going on a long weekend temt camping trip on this Father’s Day weekend.

Before we are on the road, I’d like to share a card I made with this gorgeous Hawaiian Hibiscus stamp set from Close To My Heart.

I used Watercolor Paint set and flat medium brush to create that background.

On a seperate watercolor paper, I stamped the flowers using Black Archival Ink Pad and usig my Craft Heater to dry them quickly and started painting them.

When they dried well, I used the Non-Stick Micro-Tip Scissors to cut all of them and adding them on the card with glue dots and 3D foam tapes.

I stamped the sentiment with Archival Black Ink Pad.

I am not a big fan of hot pink (sorry to all Pink lovers…) but I love how this card turned out. I think the yellow and green kindda balance it out. What do you think? 😉

Thank You for visiting me this time! Have a fabulous and blessed day!

Paper Smooches June challenge: LAYERS

Happy Little Stampers – June CASE the Designer

Summer heat is here. We got over 90 F in the last several days. I know it is still early Summer! My plants are thirsty all the time and the girls did not want to play outside too long this week, though they LOVE Summer. We hope to have cooler Father’s Day weekend 🙂

Today I am sharing a one layer card:

I stamped the Hero Arts – Leavy Vines cling stamp with VersaMark watercolor ink pad and added some Ranger – White Super Fine Embossing Powder, then using my Craft Heater I heatset the embossing powder.

I cut the word Thanks from Hero Arts – Thanks Stamp & Cuts set. I added it on the piece of vellum with Martha Stewart Glue Pen, and then stamped the sentiment under it from the same set. Using Non-Stick Micro- Tip Scissors, I cut the banner tail.

I added the banner on the card using Tombow Mono Vellum Adhesive. I like this adhesive for adding vellum on card.

I finished the card with some pearl gems (gift from my friend 🙂 )

So, I mentioned about an announcement… I am super excited that I am designing for a2z Scrapbooking Blog starting July 2016! This is a place where you can find inspirations and challenges using Hero Arts products. It is an online Etsy store that carries Hero Arts products, in an effort to raise funds for Celiac and Behcets awareness. You can find out more about them here and you can supprot this cause by shopping with them.

Creating one-layer and clean-n-simple card is mu favorite go-to style. What is yours?

Thanks for stopping by today! Have a fantastic and blessed day!
