Coffee Lovers Blog Hop - Cup of Cheer

Don't you love it when you can create not one but two cards in one session? I know I do!


For my second card today, I printed one of the background papers of the Time for Tea digital collection from Nitwit Collections onto satin finish paper by Crafter's Companion (another product I've had for ages but never used until now) and I also printed an old freebie from Meljen's Design onto Neenah solar white cardstock. After colouring the image with Spectrum Noir coloured pencils, I die cut the panel using the stitched rectangle die by SugarPea Designs from the Stamp of Approval Young at Heart collection and used the scallop die from the same set to die cut a mat for my panel. I stamped a sentiment from the Holiday Treats stamp set byVerve Stamps using Archival jet black ink. I adhered my layers using my tape runner and added a touch of clear Wink of Stella to the cheeks and then added some glossy accents to the cheeks and the hearts.

  6. Another pretty card Marianne in those lovely colourways.

    Enjoy the rest of the Easter weekend - bet it's a bit warmer where you are than cold cloudy England, looking forward to visiting your parts in July.
