Coffee Loving Papercrafters

Happy St. Patrick’s Day Monday! Today, I am sharing a fun, shamrock-inspired coffee card. I created this card for a co-worker who is also celebrating her birthday today.

I used the following products to create my card:

~Lawn Fawn Coffee Cup Gift Card Holder die set

~Lawn Fawn Magic Messages stamp set

~Lawn Fawn Magic Messages die set

~Lawn Fawn Lucky Clovers die set

~Simon Says Stamp Basic Shapes Circles

~Green , Taupe and Gold card stock

I started by stamping the sentiment in black ink, onto white card stock. I die cut it using the coordinating die. Next, I die cut a larger circle out of gold card stock. I adhered these together. Using the coffee cup die, I die cut all of the pieces needed to created the cup. I added some Pumice Stone Distress Ink around the edges of the lid and sleeve. I also die cut lots of shamrocks. I splattered the shamrocks with white acrylic paint and Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide. While those were drying, I cut a piece of white card stock to 4″ x 5 1/4″. I splattered gold ink all over this panel.

To assemble, I started by glueing the cup together. I added foam to the back of the sentiment circle, so I would have some space to arrange the shamrocks. Once I was happy with the placement, I glued everything in place. I added a few gold sequins for fun.

To finish the card, I adhered it to a tan embossed 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ panel and lastly onto a top folding A2 card base.

This festive coffee-themed card is the perfect way to celebrate friendship and St. Patrick’s Day!

Hugs and mugs,
