Saturday Coffee Cafe - Fall-ing For Coffee

 

Happy Saturday and welcome to the Cafe!  I'm so glad you stopped in today to see what's brewin'...

I love fall colors and creating fall cards...actually the next few months is my FAVORITE card-making season!

I used several new Pink & Main goodies today!  The coffee bean background was created using one of the Foilables panels in the Coffee Lovers Foilables Kit with Pebbles Bronze CheerFoil and ran them through the Mini Minc Foiling Machine (this background used the negative of the foil and used with one of the Garden Color Toner Sheets then ran through the Mini Minc Foiling Machine).

These adorable to-go cups are from the new Thanks a Latte stamp set and coordinating dies.  The sentiment is from the new Autumn Greetings Dies.

 

Thankful For You

 

Have you seen the newest Pink & Main Release?! There are SO MANY fantastic products you'll want them ALL - NEW stamps, dies, CheerFoils, Foilables, embossing folders, a fall stencil, new Monthly Stamp/Die set, Foil Bundle and SO MUCH MORE!

For my card, I cut a pattern from the Pumpkin Seasons Paper Pack with a Stitched Rectangle Set 1 die for the background. I used the Crosshatch Background die to cut Asphalt Cardstock and layered that onto the card base. The big, shimmery pumpkin was created using the Thankful Pumpkin Foilables Panels with Glitzy Gold CheerFoil and running it through the Mini Minc Foiling Machine then fussy cut the pumpkin. These sweet images are from the new Warm and Cozy stamps and coordinating dies. The sentiment is from the Fall Sentiments Foilables Panels which I foiled with Glitzy Gold CheerFoil.

 

Autumn Greetings

 

The NEW RELEASE has bushels and bushels of Fall goodness!! Wonderful new stamps, dies, CheerFoils, Foilables, a stencil and embossing folders - wow!!

For my first card, I first layered rust cardstock onto the card base. For the shimmery leaves background, I used the Falling Leaves Foilables panel with Fairy Wings Green CheerFoil and run through the Mini Minc Foiling Machine. I then used the new Knit Sweater 3D Embossing Folder to emboss the foiled piece and trimmed the bottom part of it. The layered word diecuts are from the new Autumn Greetings Dies set. I stamped and die cut these leaves from the Autumn Leaves stamp set with coordinating Autumn Leaves dies.

For my next card, I created a pretty, shiny background using the negative of the foil from my first card with one of the Fall Ombre Foilables Panels and ran it through the Mini Minc Foiling Machine. I cut Coffee Shop cardstock with one of the Stitched Rectangle Set 1 Dies for the backdrop for this darling August Pup image. The sentiment I used is from the new Fall Sentiments Foilables Panels and Gold CheerFoil and run through the Mini Minc Foiling Machine. 

 

  Be sure to stop over to the shop and find ALL the amazing new products!!

Fallin' In Love With Fall

 

Get ready for FALL! Pink and Main is ushering in Fall with a bushel FULL of amazing new goodies! My cards each feature the NEW Foil of the Month Kit and Stamp/Die of the Month: Sunny Side of Life!

 

For my first card, I cut bronze cardstock with one of the Stitched Rectangles Set 1 and adhered it onto the card base. The shimmery leaves background and sentiment were created using products in the Foil of the Month Kit which includes the Sparkle Orange CheerFoil and run through the Mini Minc Foiling Machine. This adorable image is from the Stamp/Die of the Month: Sunny Side of Life.

 For the next card, I cut green cardstock with one of the Stitched Rectangles Set 1 adhered it onto the card base. I used a leaf print Foilable and Sparkle Orange CheerFoil from the Foil of the Month Kit. I foiled the full Foilable sheet, but cut a strip for the right-side panel. Then, taking the foil negative, I used it with one of the NEW ombre transfer sheets (coming tomorrow!) and ran it through the Mini Minc Foiling Machine to create the background piece. The sentiment is one of the sentiments found in the Foil of the Month Kit. Here's another wonderful image from the Stamp/Die of the Month: Sunny Side of Life. In the center of the sunflower, I added some Glitter Enamel Dots.

For my last card, I used all the same products as the above cards. For the background, I again used a foil negative (from card #1) with a black Toner Foilable sheet and ran it through the Mini Minc Foiling Machine.

Be sure to stop over to the store tomorrow to see the entire NEW RELEASE...you'll be AMAZED at all the FABULOUS goodies!!

Just A Note

 

There are so many ways to use this month's new goodies from Pink & Main while incorporating past favorites!

For my card's background, I used the new Basket Stencil with Glossy Gel and let it dry fully. Because it dries tacky, I placed a piece of the the new Waterfall Teal CheerFoil over the stenciled/Glossy Gel design and ran it through the Mini Minc Foiling Machine. 

The little note paper and flowers are from the Envelope Pop Up Card Dies. The sentiment is from the Simple Greetings Dies set.

This darling little book-reading dragon and sentiment are from this month’s Stamp/Die Set of the Month: Hey, Hot Stuff.

For my next card, I cut cardstock with Stitched Rectangle Set 1 and Set 2 for the layering pieces. Using the CheerFoil negative from the previous card, laying it on top of a Black Toner Sheet then running it through the the Mini Minc Foiling Machine to create the background. Again, I used this month’s Stamp/Die Set of the Month: Hey, Hot Stuff — so cute!

Pretty Little Kitties

 

The NEW Just Fur You stamp set with coordinating dies are purr-fect for so many occasions...plus these pretty little kitties are SUPER CUTE!

 

 

 

For my first card, I created a background using the Paw Prints Stencil and brushed a couple different colors of distress oxide ink with Mini Ergonomic Blending Brushes. Using the larger die in the Reverse Scallop Rectangle Dies set, I cut dark purple cardstock and placed it over the background piece; adhering them to the card base. The image and sentiment are both from the NEW Just Fur You stamp set with coordinating dies. The backdrop for the kitty image was created by cutting two different colored cardstocks with one of the Reverse Scallop Rectangle Dies. The sentiment is white embossed and cut with one of the Extra Large Sentiment Strip dies.
