Coffee Loving Papercrafters

Lisa Bzibziak is back again!

Good morning friends!  I’m here on the Coffee Lover’s Blog one more time and sharing with you a card I made using mostly some Stamplorations stuff along with a few other things.  I am playing along with the Stamplorations Never Ending Anything Goes Challenge with this freebie that I downloaded to use during the Coffee Hop that just ended and didn’t get a chance to use it.  You can still download this freebie here and you can use it to play along with this challenge too!

I started off this one with this awesome Summer Plaid paper from Your Next Stamp.. it’s not just for summer you know!  I cut all three layers using the Crazy Double Running Stitch Nesting Rectangle Dies (say that three times fast!) from Stamplorations.  I was going to emboss the top white layer with a leaf pattern, but then I came across this cool swirly one from Cricut and thought it felt like an autumn breeze.. plus those leaves in this digi were so awesome I didn’t want to compete with them.

To be honest, I really started off by coloring this digi with my Albrecht Durer Watercolor Pencils… I love the effects you get with the watercolor pencils and although I’m not nearly done with my Copics, lately I’ve been pulling these out most often.  I used the Paper Sweeties steam die from the Keep Calm and Drink Coffee Sweet Cuts because I love it!

And finished it off with this fantastic Java Great Day Phrase Die from Stamplorations!  Love these coffee phrase dies available in the shop!  You can buy them each separately… but why would you??…lol!  I cut this one using some metallic blue paper.

That’s it for me!  It’s been so much fun guesting this month and I thank everyone for being so nice and welcoming!  I’ve had a blast!  See you around the Interweb!
