Coffee Date With Helen and Shery

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY, everyone!!! It’s Coffee Date Time!!! We are going to have a coffee date with me, Helen, and Shery! And on our date today, we are sharing our cards featuring STAMPlorations digital stamps and Clear Stickers. STAMPlorations is one of our Super Sponsors for our coffee loving cardmakers community.

On my card, I used the Spring Blooms and Mugs digital stamp set. This CAS card is very simple to make. First, I printed the mug image with laser jet printer and then I added DecoFoil Gold Foil sheet on it and run it through my laminating machine. And woalah! It turned into a gold mug. After that I fussy cut it with scissors.

For the background, I simply added some watercolor paint on a watercolor paper to create that rainbow colors. I dried it with craft heater and then cut it with one of the Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies – CUTplorations. I added the background on a white card with Scrapbook Adhesive EZ Grand.

I added the gold mug with 3D foam tape on the card. I added one of the Just Caffeinate Stickers on a white cardstock and cut it around the sticker. I added on the card with 3D foam tape. I decorated my card with some of the sequins from Color Confetti – Shaker Blends.

And now…. my coffee date, Shery’s card. She made this beautiful card with the Cup of Blooms Digital Stamps and Just Caffeinate Stickers.

Here’s a little bit about Shery:

I’m Shery, mom to two active girls — a 4-year-old and a 2-year-old. I’m the owner of STAMPlorations, a small family business my husband and I started in 2013. I’m so glad to be Helen’s coffee date today. I love coffee, but I cut back on it both times that I was pregnant with my girls and after they were born (because I breastfed). I have an entire category devoted to coffee on the STAMPlorations store…with many of the coffee-themed stamps borne out of my frustration of not being able to drink coffee whenever and however much I wanted to! With my 2-year-old finally weaned, I’m able to enjoy a cup of coffee every day now. I love designing products and dreaming up of things to make. In my other life, I’m a ghostwriter, an editor, the author of several books on journaling, an email course developer, and a software creator. Lately, however, you’ll find me in my trailer playing with my laser cutter and making a bunch of fun stuff…with some of them soon to appear on the STAMPlorations store.

It has been a fun coffee date with Shery today and I hope you all also have fun with us. And even more fun… I am giving away a $10 gift code to STAMPlorations Digital Store. To enter simply visit STAMPlorations Digital Store and tell me what is your favorite stamp in the comment. I will announce the winner at Coffee Loving Facebook Group on February 29, 2020!

Thanks A Latte for being here today! Have a wonderful,  caffeinated day!
