Coffee Loving Papercrafters

Esther is back with us to wrap up her month as one of our Guest Designers.  Please make sure you make it all the way to the end of the post where we will be doing a look back at all of her gorgeous inspiration!

Hello coffee loving friends, Esther here for my final guest design post this month. For this last card I went with a mixed media style using several products from Stamplorations.

To create this card I started by applying Squeezed Lemonade and Wild Honey Distress Oxide (Ranger) through the Weaving Stencil (Stamplorations) in two of the corners.

Next, I added different designs from the Mixed Media Grunge Stamp Set (Stamplorations) using Faded Jeans Distress Oxide (Ranger).

I added stitching lines in two corners using the Stitches Stamp Set from Bo Bunny and Tuxedo Black Ink (Tsukineko).

I printed the coffee cup from the Love From Me Digital Stamp Set (Verve) on Canson Watercolor Paper and colored it with Prismacolor Pencils

The coffee sentiment is die cut from black card stock using the Lowercase Alphabet Plate Die (Stamplorations).

I distressed the edges of my panel with a pair of open scissors before adding it to my card front.

I don’t always finish the insides of my cards, but this time I did.

I stenciled hearts in two corners using Squeezed Lemonade and Wild Honey Distress Oxide (Ranger) and a Heart Stencil (Firefly).

After adding a bit of Zig Zag Washi Tape, I stamped the sentiment from Thoughtful Wishes (Stampendous) in Faded Jeans Distress Oxide.

I’d love for you to visit me on my blog — Shoregirl’s Creations or stop by my Instagram page.
