September 24: Guest Designer

GuestDesignerSlider

Hello, crafty friends!

This is Dana here.  The Coffee Loving Cardmakers blog hop has finally started! Fall is my favorite season with milk tea, latte, cozy clothes and yummy foods. Today, I expressed some of them on interactive card.

I began with making flop card shape to the white card base using ‘Die-namics flop card-circle’ (MFT). At the same time, I die cut the cream color pineapple patten paper, too. I then glued them together. Using same die cut, I made sparkling circle panel with glitter paper.

Next, I stamped tea pot and tea cup image and circle solid image from The ton on another card stock using Versafine ‘Onyx black’ and Mama elephant ‘Brown sugar’. I then stamped milk foam on the cup with white pigment ink (Hero arts ‘Unicorn’) but it wasn’t applied well so I drew the line using white gel pen.

The Stamped pigs of ‘Hog heaven'(MFT) is a gift from friend of mine:) I created them as coffee fairy! I drew coffee bean wreath and necklace to them and added colors using Zig clean color real brush. I like how them turned out!

For bottom border of inside the card, I die cut ‘Die-namics Hello beautiful'(MFT) and ink blended it using distress inks (Vintage photo, Ground espresso). I then splattered a bit of water to it.

Back to the front part, I created pouring coffee look using distress ink. I ink blended with little tough touch and spritzed water for express tiny coffee bean powder and coffee oils that I normally found in the coffee brewed using french press.

I embellished beads on the coffee part using Pico embellisher ‘clear’ and stamped sentiments from ‘Hug in a mug'(The ton). To finished off, I mounted all pieces where I wanted them using double sided tape and foam tape.

That’s all for today! More pics are on my blog. Now, it’s your turn! I hope find lots of your links in the CLH hop page exceeding 811 entries of last summer hop. I’ll be back with another card on my blog during hop days. Stay tuned!

Thank you so much for stopping by.

Hugs,

Dana.
