Stampin' In Alaska

It's Day 7 of the Coffee Lovers Bloghop and this will be my final entry for the week of fun.  My card features Coffee & Love digital set from Graciellie Design.  I am completely smitten with this beautiful coffee cup image!  And what I love about digital stamping is the ability to make the image any size I need for my project.  The image was also super easy to fussy cut for this card. The image was printed onto watercolor paper then fussy cut and colored with Tim Holtz distress inks and Tombow markers.  The card was finished with a machine stitched border, seam tape ribbon, pearls and gold thread.

I'm back for Day 6 of the Coffee Lovers Bloghop with this adorable card featuring Super Sponsor Crafting Desert Divas .  My card features the CDD digital set Coffee to Go . One of the many reasons I love digital stamping is the sizing.  I chose to use the cup from the set and made it "extra large" when pasting it into a Word Document.   The image was fussy cut, colored with Copic Markers then layered onto coordinating paper from Doodlebug.  A coffee themed sentiment from Gina Marie and enamel dots finish the card.

Graciellie Design is releasing a lovely new floral digital set this month called Desert Rose .  This digital set comes with two floral images and three coordinating sentiments. I began my project with a repeat background featuring one of the floral images.  The background was printed onto Coor'dinations Silver Pearl cardstock. I chose one of the coordinating sentiments as the focus of my card.  It was also printed onto the Silver Pearl cardstock then layered onto black.  Gingham ribbon from Gina K Designs and coordinating sequins finish the card. A matching bookmark was created by starting with the same background for the base panel.  The digital sentiment was printed onto the Coor'dinations cardstock and layered onto black.  The bookmark was laminated.  I finished the bookmark with the Gina K gingham ribbon and baker's twine. Be sure to stop by the Graciellie Design Shop for this set and many more!  Thanks for stopping by today.
