Kimberly here — Happy National Coffee Day – Week!  I’m so delighted to be joining you this week. There sure is a ton of great designer inspiration coming your way.

Today I am featuring the fun Trinity Stamps Boo’s 4×11 stamp set.  As you can see, there are many possibilities in using this stamp set. I love that new fad seeing the use non traditional Halloween colors. Think outside of the traditional colors, maybe use pinks, or purples.   I chose a cool blue ombre to emphasize a shadow and dimension effect.

I stamped and copic colored a slimline sized card.  With my MFT polaroid die, I stamped and copic colored a second panels of the ghost images, and was able to make two additional cards.  I love it when you are able to stretch your supplies and easily make multiple card with little effort.

A totally fun thing that I have been doing lately, is to add a itty bitty to-go coffee cup from the Waffle Flower Crafts Coffee Shop Hamster set to various cards. It is so cheeky.

I elevated the look of the cards by adding layers.  If you prefer a simpler, more mail friendly version, it is so easy to make this a more CAS (clean and simple) design by making these without all of the layers.

I also wanted to show you that Trinity Stamps has the cutest caffeinated Halloween Stamp called Witchcrafting!  It is totally adorable and on the top of my brew-tastic crafty supply wish list!

I hope that you are inspired to create out of your comfort zone, maybe try using a design with non traditional colors for your holiday cards.

Have a super Creative Caffeinated Week, and don’t forget to stick around and comment on all the Coffee Hop Week posts for prizes!
