Today I’m joining in with the gals from the Freshly Brewed Blog Hop.
Perfect name for the blog hop given this week’s theme! So what is your prefence – tea or coffee?
I start my day with a couple of cups of tea and move onto coffee a little later. Dare I say, I used to drink far more coffee that I do now.
I decided to make a coffee shaker card for this challenge – and, yes, that’s real instant coffee in the jar.
I have used a Crumb Cake card base. The smaller layer, in the same colour, has had Soft Suede ink flicked onto it. Then I ‘stamped’ the coffee cup rings using the base of a sponge dauber.
The coffee beans, from the PRESS ON STAMP SET, were stamped in Soft Suede, as well, onto a piece of Whisper White card. Then it was passed through my amazing STAMPIN’ CUT & EMBOSS MACHINE using the OLD WORLD 3D EMBOSSING FOLDER.
Using the JAR PUNCH, I created the space to adhere the MASON JAR SHAKER DOME to the white layer. Once I added some coffee I placed a piece of WINDOW SHEET over the back of the dome to hold it in place.
The two stamped and embossed coffee cups were cut from the jar shape. The cup shape is from the LOVE YOU MORE THAN DIES. The third cup was cut from a piece of DSP from the NEUTRALS 6″x 6″ BUNDLE.
I also stamped the jar lid using the JAR OF FLOWERS STAMP SET. A bit of fussy cutting and the lid is ‘off the jar’.
The final part of the card is the sentiment which is from the NOTHING’S BETTER THAN STAMP SET.
I used my trimmer to cut some of the sentiment and fussy cut the rest.
Now it’s time for a coffee.
