Here’s my coffee holiday cheer card that I made using stamp set, die sets, and stencil from our sponsor, Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps.

I cut the background mats using the Stitched Rectangle Die Set. I cut a white cardstock using the largest scallop for the base and then I added it to the card with permanent adhesive glue.

Next, I cut a light grey cardstock with the large stitched rectangle die from the Stitched Rectangle Die Set. I added some snowflakes on it using the Snowstorm stencil. I added the white pigment ink using large blending brush. I added the finished stenciled mat to the card with permanent adhesive glue.

On a white cardstock, I stamped the candy cane and mug from Holiday Cheer clear stamp set using black pigment ink and I used craft heater gun to dry the ink. I colored them with alcohol markers and then I cut them with the matching Holiday Cheer die set. I added them to the card with foam tape.

And for the sentiment, I stamped it on a white card with black pigment ink and then cut it into banner shape. I used one of the stitched rectangle die to cut just the top of the banner to give it the stitching look. Then I tied up some of burlap twine around it and added to the card with foam tape.

That’s my card for today. For more chances to win, leave comments on all of the We Run on Coffee and Christmas Cheer posts.
