Coffee Loving Cardmakers & Casual Fridays Stamps Blog Hop!


The Coffee Loving Cardmakers are so thrilled to be collaborating with CAS-ual Fridays Stamps for a java-lovin' blog hop!  Leave a comment along the way for a chance to win one of three $25 gift certificates to the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps store!

   
   
   


For my first card, I chose a soft winter theme (maybe I'm just wishing for a 'soft' winter without much snow!)  After layering two patterns of paper, I stamped one of the sentiments at the top from the Mistletoe & Holly set.  The cups are all from the Coffee Cup Fri-Dies set.  The large cup was cut from pattern paper and I used the sprig die from the Acorn Fri-Dies for 'trees'.  The small cups, cut from cardstock, have designs created with the same sprig die and one of the smaller Autumn Blessings images.


 



I created a fall-themed card for my next project.  Using a woodgrain pattern paper, I made a 'sign board' with one of the sentiments from the Coffee Talk set and the coffee word is a die in the Coffee Cup Fri-Dies set.  The Coffee Cup Fri-Dies cup was cut from pattern paper and dark brown cardstock and I added the acorn from the Acorn Fri-Dies which is also cut from pattern paper and cardstock to decorate the cup.



Hope you'll hop along with us for tons of inspiration, lots of fun and a chance to win!
