ELC Coffee Lover's Blog Hop

 Hello Friend!

Today I am excited to be part of the creative team sharing some AWESOME inspiration with you using the new Coffee Lover's Kit from Erin Lee Creative. This kit has some unique and fun creative things to play with! So fun! Let's get started!

My first card uses the super cool Cup Heart Die that is an addition to the kit. 

I cut it out of Holgraphic cardstock from ELC. 

The background features the Magenta Mirrored Cardstock that I dry embossed using the                     Fun House Squares Stencil.

The sentiment is from the 6x8 stamp set in the kit and is embossed with white embossing powder on a deep grey cardstock.

The shine and colors on this card can not be beat!

 I love, love, love the Holographic Cardstocks from Erin Lee Creative! 

My second card features the cute little coffee cup from the 6x8 set in the kit along with one of the sentiments. 

I stamped, water colored and die cut the cups. 

The background features the Hex Stencil (another of my favs). I used a a blue distress oxide on the light green cardstock to make the background. 

Fun, simple and quick!

Maxi White Space + Floral Twist Challenge

I was scrolling through IG last week and found a new challenge to participate in. AAA Card Challenges has a CAS card challenge each week. I tend to overthink things and make them too hard so this is just what I need!

AAACards Clean and Simple Challenges #170

I found the challenge to be very relaxing! Which is good because sometimes I stress when I make a cards...not good :(. 

On this first card, I used a set of boarder dies to emboss the card front. 

The sentiment and small flower are from My Favorite Things Stamps. Add just a few shaded of color on the flower with my Copics and DONE!! 

This second card features embossing on the card front with a Small Brick Wall stencil from  My Favorite Things.

I then used the same stamps for this card. 

I found that I wanted to keep making these simple cards with the same two stamps BUT I stopped and moved on to other projects. It was definitely a breathe of fresh air to make these. 

Thank you for stopping by! Happy Crafting My Friends!

Huge Hugs

Anyone need a HUGE Hug  from someone you haven't seen in awhile?

I know I have a few friends I wish I could see and hug!

This is my last card featuring the technique used in this video by Jennifer McGuire.

On this one I used this wonderful Herringbone background stamp from Concord and 9th. Love that stamp!! The die is from My Favorite Things.

I dry embossed the paper before die cutting with the Broken Chevron Stencil from Altenew.

Hope you have a wonderful day! Thanks for stopping by!
