February 27 – Guest Designer

Our February Guest, Lisa Golzbein is wrapping up her time with us today.  Please read to the bottom of the post where we’re also feature her earlier project.

Hello again Coffee Loving friends!

It’s Lisa and I’m excited to be back for my second and last  guest designer post this month.  Thank you again Amy for having me!  I have enjoyed sharing my cards with you this month.

Today I have a card using one of my favorite coffee themed stamps. It’s called Love To Go from Unity Stamp Company.  I just love the whimsical style of this stamp, it really lends itself to watercolors and that’s exactly what I used.

  • To begin with I die cut a panel of cream colored card stock with the largest die from the  Wonky Wavy Stitched Rectangle dies from Kat Scrappiness.  Then I ran it through my Vagabond with a script embossing folder and adhered it to a light teal card base.
  • The next step was to stamp the coffee cup on to some watercolor paper and use Distress Inks to fill in the cup with a fine tip brush.
  • Once the watercoloring was done, I used a smaller die from the Wonky Wavy Stitched Rectangle dies again to cut it out. Before I matted that panel on to the same color as the card base, I tied some twine around the bottom of it. I then adhered it on an angle to the card base.
  • The last step was to die cut some cream card stock with the Stitched Flag dies from Kat Scrappiness and stamp my sentiment in dark brown ink. I matted that flag with a larger one in the same teal color as the card base. I popped it up on foam tape above the coffee cup and my card was done.

Thanks so much for joining me again today on the Coffee Lovers blog!

Have a great day, I already am!
