Did somebody say 'coffee'?

Happy sunshine-y Thursday everyone! It's a gorgeous day here in NS, and I'd much rather be outside on my deck drinking coffee, than at work, sitting at my desk, drinking coffee. But I digress...

This is my entry into the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge this week. I didn't want to do a traditional floral wreath, as depicted in the sketch, so I thought I'd branch out and try a coffee cup wreath? :)


This card is also my entry in the Coffee Lovers Summer Blog Hop! I discovered this blog hop just a few days ago, and I thought I'd create a coffee-themed card - because I am, in fact, a Coffee Lover!


Supplies:
  • SU! Coffee Break Suite including: Coffee Cafe stamp set, Coffee Cups dies and Coffee Break DSP and coordinating card stock (Chocolate Chip and Pear Pizzazz)
  • SU! French Foliage stamp set
  • Paper Pumpkin March 2018 "May Good Things Grow" stamp set (for the Happy Birthday)
  • CTMH Gold Pearls
  • Forever in Time natural burlap tape

  2. YES, I've been seriously wanting to make a coffee cup wreath but I'm so one of those people that pin a bunch of projects but not enough time or energy to complete them. Your card is FABulous.

  6. Such an interesting and unique idea for a wreath. Definitely a card for a coffee lover - and the coffee beans are the perfect finishing touch. Thanks for sharing with us at Atlantic Hearts.

  13. Awesome card, Teri-Lynn! I love your take on the sketch as well as your choice of colors, such rich browns - as befitting a coffee themed card!- but great tones and embellishments to complement those browns. The layered cups and coffee beans as well as the textures for the banners at the bottom add even more visual interest to what is already an adorable card. Thanks for sharing with us this week at AHSC.

Merry Christmas Slimline

I did another card from this week's  Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge  (sketch #469). This time, I did a Christmas card! I used Gina K's woodgraining technique (you can find a tutorial here ). I also used Distress Frosted Crystal embossing powder; here's a close-up of the effect: For the snowflakes and the sentiment, I cut the shapes out twice and glued them together to make them thicker. Very happy with how this one turned out! :) Supplies : Dies: Merry Christmas sentiment (unbranded), Tim Holtz Sizzix Holiday Greens Mini, Pink & Main Stitched Slimline, SU! Snowfall Thinlits Paper: SU! Mossy Meadow, Real Red and Very Vanilla cardstock, Recollections Gold Foil cardstock Ink: Distress Oxide Vintage Photo, SU! Crumb Cake Embellishments: Distress Frosted Crystal embossing powder, CTMH Gold Bling Gems

Lucky Stars Paper: CTMH Year>>Noted paper pack Etc: Flowers (I have no idea!), Michaels Adhesive Crackle Dots (Island Time) Thanks for looking!! :) ----------------------------------------------------------- Second thoughts (on Wednesday!)... I reworked the card a bit. Added a bigger circle and moved the flower down. I think they both look good. Just playing around with the design a little more.
