Coffee Lovers Blog Hop Card #10

I was the lucky winner of a Flash prize for the 2024 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop, so I needed to make another card with the prize I won!

My prize was a gift certificate from Angie Blom Digital Designs, so I was able to download my purchase right away. 

I used the Christmas Joy Mugs set and coloured the printed image with Spectrum Noir alcohol markers.

I added a bit of Gina K. Designs Cherry Red ink around the outside of the panel and the sentiment, which I attached near the bottom of my mini slimline panel.

After adding a red panel behind it, and attaching it to a white card base, I added a few sequins from the Picket Fence Studios More Peppermint Kisses Sequin mix.

This will be my last card for this year's hop, but it was so much fun. I am looking forward to next year!

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop Card #9

 

I have a mini slimline card for the 2024 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop using supplies from Gina K. Designs.

I started by inking up the Art Deco stencil with Honey Mustard, Tomato Soup, and Faded Brick ink. Then I spritzed it well with water and placed my cardstock over the stencil, pressing down to transfer the ink to the cardstock.

Once the panel was dry, I stamped the images and sentiment, from the Perfect Blend stamp set, with Warm Cocoa ink.

After I added a brown layer, I attached it to a white card base.

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop Card #8

 

I made a slimline card for the 2024 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.

I used the Funky Fossil Designs Time for Tea stamp set and stamped the images with Gina K. Designs Passionate Pink, Tranquil Teal, and Dark Orchid ink. The sentiment was stamped with Obsidian Amalgam ink. 

I coloured in parts of the images with Spectrum Noir alcohol markers and backed them with some gold glitter paper.

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop Card #7

 

I used a cute snow globe on my next card for the 2024 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.

The snow globe die is by Craftmania Dies. I cut it out twice and cut out the middle of one of them. I blended some blue ink, whatever was on my blending brush, on the background. I cut a small hill out of white cardstock and added it near the bottom. 

I stamped and die cut the penguins and cocoa cups, from the Gina K. Designs Playful Penguins set, and coloured them with Spectrum Noir Alcohol markers.

I stamped the sentiment, from the Gina K. Designs Winter Terrain stamp set, on the front layer.

To assemble, I added some acetate on the back of the front layer, and adhered some foam tape all around the snow globe. On the background, I glued some snowflakes from the Picket Fence Studios Icicles Sequin mix, and added some Mica Flakes before taping the front panel onto the background.

I added the penguins on the front along with the cocoa cups.

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop Card #6

 

My 6th card for the 2024 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop  has a tag as the focal image.

The tag is made with the Gina K. Designs Decorative Tag Die. I stamped the cute mouse, from the Simon Says Stamp Cocoa & Love set, with Gina K. Designs Soft Stone ink and coloured it with Spectrum Noir Alcohol markers. I stamped the sentiment, in Dark Chocolate ink and the hearts, in Red Velvet ink. I added some glue to the hat brim and ball, the whipped cream and the bottom of the coat, and heat embossed some Gina K. Designs Puffy White embossing powder to give it some texture. 

The background paper is from the Gina K. Designs Winter Cheer Patterned Paper pack.

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop Card #5

 

My next card for the 2024 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop uses the Rabbit Cafe stamp set by Penguin Palace (now Sunbird Spark).

I stamped, coloured and then cut out the image with the coordinating die. 

I masked off the diagonal stripe, stamped the snowflakes, from the Gina K. Designs Sparkling Snowflake stamp set, with VersaMark ink and heat embossed them with Silver embossing powder. I added a strip of Scor-Tape on both sides and added Crystal Glitter Ritz Transparent Micro Fine Glitter (Cool Highlight).

I stamped the sentiment and popped up the die cut image with some foam squares.

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop Card #4

 

My 4th card for the 2024 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop is a gate fold card.

The image and sentiment are from the Whimsy Stamps Comfort and Joy stamp set. I stamped the image with Gina K. Designs Obsidian Amalgam ink and coloured it in with coloured pencils. I added some glue to the whipped cream, sprinkled Gina K. Designs Puffy White embossing powder over it and heated it to make it puff up.

I stamped the sentiment with VersaMark ink, added gold embossing powder and heated it until it melted. 

For the card base, I used a piece of 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" cardstock and used my Scor-Buddy to score the folds at the two score lines marked with a circle. This makes it really easy to make a gate fold card base. I added some patterned paper from the American Crafts Holly Jolly paper pad to the two side flaps before attaching the image to the left hand flap. To finish it off, I added a few snowflake sequins.

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop Card #3

 

One of the Super Sponsors of the 2024 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop, Jessica Lynn Original, has a free digital image that we can download and that is what I used for this card.

I downloaded and printed out the image, and then coloured it in with Spectrum Noir Alcohol markers. I chose a Fall colour palette.

I added an orange layer before attaching it to a white card base, and finished it off with a couple of shiny leaves.

Thank you, Jessica Lynn, for the free image!

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop Card #2

 

My second card for the 2024 Fall / Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop uses a stamp set from Dare 2B Artzy, called Latte Love.

One of the stamps in the set has a bunch of coffee related words in a slim rectangle shape. I stamped this 3 times, using Gina K. Designs Faded Brick ink, stamping off before stamping the background.

I stamped the coffee cup and handle with Gina K. Designs Chocolate Truffle Amalgam ink and cut them out with the matching die set, called Frappe and Donut. I used coloured pencils to add some colour to the dots and then glued the handle on.

I stamped the sentiment with VersaMark ink and heat embossed it in white. I added the strip to the background and attached the coffee cup before adhering it to the card base with some foam tape.

2024 Fall / Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop

 

It's time for the 2024 Fall / Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop! I will be making several cards over the next few days, which will all have a coffee, tea, cocoa, or apple cider theme.

My first card is made with some supplies that I won in a giveaway!

I used a Darice embossing folder, called Coffee Pots, to make the background. I inked up the raised part of the design in the embossing folder with Gina K. Designs Coral Reef ink, added a piece of cardstock, and ran it through my Cuttlebug. Then I blended some more Coral Reef over the design to give it some colour.

The coffee cup and sentiment are from the Catherine Pooler Life is Brew-tiful stamp set. I used Gina K. Designs Kraft ink to stamp the cup and Chocolate Truffle Amalgam ink to stamp the sentiment. I added some details to the cup with some coloured pencils, and popped the sentiment up with some foam squares.
