Fall Coffee Lovers Blog Hop

Hey friends!!  Fall is officially here and that means time for the fall Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.  Precious Remembrance Shop is a super sponsor for the hop and that means everyone who participates has a chance to win the super fun PRS set Fall Colors.   Everyone on the PRS design team has a card that we created for the hop using Precious Remembrance Shop stamps. I used the coffee related set Coffee Love.  I'm not a coffee drinker, but I will have the occasional mocha or peppermint mocha.  My drink of choice is a Chai Latte (all soy no water).   But that is a great thing about the Coffee Lovers blog hop...you can make a card using tea or hot cocoa images, as well!!  So... the "to go" cup on my card has a yummy hot and steaming Chai Latte in it!!  In keeping with the theme of fall I used a warm color palette of orange, golden yellow, brown and red with a bit of dark brown and kraft thrown in.  I stamped the to go cup on some cream paper and trimmed out the coffee cup lid and the center band.  The cup was stamped again on plaid paper and the entire thing trimmed out.  I added the lid and center band to the plaid cup.  The little circle heart image was stamped in orange ink and the sentiment "enjoy" was stamped in brown. I punched it out with a circle punch and added it to the center band.  The layout for my card is based on the current Freshly Made Sketch so I will be adding my card to that line up, as well.   Posting this to the current Really Reasonable Ribbon challenge to use orange.

Thanks for stopping by today... enjoy your coffee and the hop!!

Get Well Wishes

Hello!!  Have a card for the current Waltzingmouse sketch challenge today.  One of the elements of the sketch was to create your own stamped border piece.  When I saw that I immediately thought of my WMS Victorian Frippery set and the beautiful lace-like border in the set.  I decided to use the current color combo from Splitcoaststampers of Rich Razzleberry, Vanilla and Regal Rose for the card, as well.  

The border was stamped on two pieces of card stock using Rich Razzleberry for one piece and a combo of PTI's Berry Sorbet & Palette Boudoir Blush and then each piece was trimmed as you see.  I layered the two pieces using foam dimensionals.  The sentiment is from the WMS set Fancy Phrases. 

I'm also going to put this into the current Really Reasonable Ribbon challenge "anything goes".

Thanks for taking a peek....

Missing You...

A card for the current DeNami Design sketch challenge, as well as for the current Really Reasonable Ribbon challenge, Double Dutch.  I also used the current color combo from Color Throwdown of pink, kraft, light blue, and dark brown. 

I stamped the little tulip image from DeNami randomly on the white cardstock using SU!'s Pretty in Pink and then colored each of the little flowers with Koh-i-nor pencils and some gamsol.  I applied a strip of Scor-Tape to the bottom of the piece and adhered the lace trim by pleating it a bit to create the ruffled look.  Some Baja Breeze seam binding from Stampin Up! was tied around the piece and then I attached the whole thing to the kraft card base.  I stamped the sentiment from one of PTI's Fillable Frames set on white cardstock using SU!'s Early Espresso, punched it out using a SU! punch, applied the pink rhinestones and attached with foam dimensionals.
