Holiday Coffee Lovers Challenge Part 2

 
Today I have another card to share for the Holiday Coffee Blog Hop. I used the same paper from Simple Stories as yesterday but this time used Verve stamps and was inspired by the Verve December Inspiration challenge. I added a little wood heart veneer to the center of the coffee cup to coordinate with the heart in the patterned paper:

World Card Making Day Blog Tour

Welcome to the World Card Making Day Blog Tour!!! Card making is a worldwide hobby and I am thrilled to be joining in on this special blog hop. It is fun to connect with fellow card makers from around the world and share via the internet our paper crafted creations! 
 I was in a fall mood and created this card using some fabulous stamps and dies from Reverse Confetti:
The stamp set is Forever Fall and the die cut chevron panel is Chevron Pretty Panels Confetti Cuts. These die cut panels are a fun element to add to projects. The patterned paper is Simple Stories which I still have from last year. The sketch for this design came from the Reverse Confetti October Sketch For You To Try.

Next stop on the hop is Niki Estes!
You can find more details on the blog hop on the World Card Making Day Blog Tour on the Paper Crafts Connection website: HERE.

Looking forward to hopping along this afternoon...I am off to a Color Run 5K with some dear friends and will hop a bit later in the day. :)
Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day!

In My Thoughts


WPlus9 Design Studio is celebrating their 4th birthday and having a month of weekly challenges to celebrate! I am entering this card into the Birthday Celebration Week 2 Challenge: Step It Up.  
I stepped it up a bit by paper piecing the flowers using Simple Stories patterned paper and popping the sentiment up on dimensions.
The floral image is from Flora and Fauna I and the sentiment is from Guiding Light.
  
Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day!

SNSS Christmas in July Blog Hop

Hello friends and welcome to our Christmas in July die release and blog hop!  We have two fabulous new dies to share with you that coordinate with two of our already popular Christmas stamp sets from last year---Poinsettia & Vintage Ornaments.
Join us today as we share gorgeous samples feature these two sets with their matching dies and enter for a chance to win them!
  • Die set includes 4 dies
  • Designed by Korin Sutherland
  • Priced at $16.75
  • Coordinates with Vintage Ornaments stamp set  
Love these ornament dies!  For this card, I stamped the green ornaments, then die cut and stamped a coordinating one to place in the center. Super easy!!!!


  • Die set includes 1 die
  • Designed by Korin Sutherland
  • Priced at $10.50
  • Coordinates with Poinsettia stamp set 

First I die cut the poinsettia using red cardstock and stamped/embossed using Versafine Oynx Black and clear embossing powder. It was a bit too red, so I misted it with White Dylusions ink spray...definitely the more subtle look I was wanting!  The patterned paper is Simple Stories.
Love these new dies and will definitely be cranking out some Christmas cards using these this year!!!
 
Now that you've seen the new dies, check out what our DT did with them by clicking the thumbnails below.
Be sure to leave a comment of each of the blogs along your journey because we're giving away each new die set! (2 winners-1 die each) 
The deadline to comment for a chance to win is midnight EST Wednesday, July 31st.  The list of winners will be announced on our website homepage by Tuesday, August 6th.
Thanks so much for joining us!  Enjoy the hop!
