2022 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Bloghop

 

Hello there,

I am playing along 2022 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Bloghop.  This time around, we don't have to make it a Fall/Winter theme, just project with coffee/tea/cocoa will do.  And here's what I came up with.

On a watercolor background panel, I stenciled with Funky Fossil Designs' Caffeine Buzz.   Added twine I dye using Stamperia Coffee Dye Ink. I used the same ink and created a 'matching' panel, adhere to card base.  And embellished with a faux wax seal created using Spellbinders Faux Wax Seal Stamp & Die set; the coffee cup image in the middle of the seal is from Concord & 9th Coffee Blend Turnabout Stamp Set.

Thanks for coming over to my blog, have a cozy day!

Coffee Christmas Card

I don't know what has happen, but I got so seriously distracted this week...

I used a digi stamp named Cozy Winter Background by Rachel Vass Designs for this fun card.  Nothing complicate, I printed, color with alcohol markers, die cut, tie sentiment tag, and adhere to a dry embossed card base.  Voila!

One good thing about digi stamps, no need to wait for the snail mail delivery. Instant download!!   Rachel has more coffee image in the her store.  

If you're like me, rushing in the last minute, digi stamp is a great choice.  Check these out:  Coffee Break,  Sketchy Rose Teacups, Gnome One Like You, Sweather Weather ... etc all great for coffee/tea/hot cocoa related projects.

Altenew Academy Creative Coloring with Erum Lesson 2 Homework

Happy Monday everyone!!

In lesson 2 of Altenew Academy Creative Coloring with Erum we learnt to add texture to our projects.  Textures like embossing paste or visual. 

For my homework, I created a visual texture in the background and added embossing paste.

I created the wood texture by adding watercolor to a mixed media paper panel, starting with a light wash, and then slowly added in layers of colors changing from wet brush to dry brush.  This is how it looks like before I added embossing paste.

Here's a close up of the focal elements.

2019 Spring Summer Coffee Lovers Bloghop May07

If you ask me what's my favorite ..., my answer is Coffee!  :D  Oh, and cup cakes!  

I got this free download from STAMPlorations (designed by Shery Russ).  I printed it on heavy weight white card stock, colored with alcohol markers, hand cut and adhere to this fun pattern paper.  I thought it worked out just fine.  :)

I added some texture by spreading some embossing paste on the cupcake icing, and went over the "white chocolate swirls" on the chocolate covered strawberry with a white gel pen.  By the way, I didn't colored the body of the cup, but stamped little hearts instead.
