Spring Coffee Lovers Blog Hop & TUTORIAL

Hey peeps.  Happy Friday.  Today is the start of the Spring Coffee Lovers blog hop. The hop goes live at 9:00am EST. I have a card and a tutorial for you.  My day begins and sometimes ends with coffee.  So of course I have to play in the blog hop every chance I get.

I used Simon Says Stamp's What's Brewing and Altenew's Coffee Talk stamp sets for my card today along with a stencil from The Crafter's Workshop. To finish off my card I add a strip of Lawn Fawn Perfectly Plaid paper and a few Tonic Studio Nuvo crystal drops.

Here's a quick tutorial on how this card came together.  Grab your cup of coffee, tea, or hot chocolate and  enjoy.  You can watch it here on my blog or on my Youtube channel mzdanajoy.

Have a great weekend everyone. Make it a crafty one.

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop

Hey hey everyone.  I'm so excited to be participating in the Spring Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.  I've had the pleasure in participating in all of the hops to date and I just love it.  We get to see so much talent and creativity at it's best. 

 

The hop will run from TODAY until March 25th. There will be prizes to be won so make sure you make a card and link it up.  Here is my card for the hop. I used one of my FAVORITE coffee stamp sets from SugarPea Designs.  This one is called Coffee Addict.  I inked up the coffee sentiments in several ink colors to give my panel a rainbow look.  I also made the mug in an ombre look with two colors and of course we need rainbow color coffee.  LOL 

I hop you'll join in on the fun.  I can't wait to see what everyone will be creating.  Have a great day everyone!

Coffee...MORE PLEASE

Hey peeps.  I know I keep saying I'm down to my last card but I just can't seem to stop.  LOL  Jessica from Jessica Lynn Original was sweet enough to share this cute image for the Holiday Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.  This little fella is called Barista Brentwood Owl.  I love this cute owl holding this very large coffee cup.  And best of all it's still FREE to download.  The sentiment is from the Sweet Stamp Shop stamp set called Coffee Time.

Here's a closeup.  I used a clear sparkle pen from Spectrum Noir to add some shimmer to my cup. I'm in LOVE with these new pens.

Okay, gotta run.  I have a few more gifts to wrap and some reindeer chow to make for munching later.  Have a fabulous day everyone.

Coffee Inspired Holiday Card

Hey peeps.  Back with a quick coffee inspired holiday card.  I am down to very last Christmas cards for my loved ones.  My hubby is a HUGE coffee guy so of course I needed to make him a coffee Christmas card. The image and sentiment was a free download from Verve stamps during the Coffee Lovers Holiday blog hop.

Here's a quick video on how this card came together.  I love when a card comes together in list than ten minutes.  The most work that needed to be done on this card was coloring these adorable coffee cups.  Click here to see the video in HD.

I'm going to enter my card into the Color Throwdown Challenge.  Merry Christmas everyone.  I hope you enjoy your time with loved ones and friends.  Let's remember to share some handmade kindness.

Holiday Coffee Lovers Blog Hop

Hey peeps.  It's finally here!  The Holiday Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!!  Woot woot.  I can't believe this is the sixth hop for this amazing group.  Way to go ladies.

Of course I had to join in.  Everyone in this group is beyond sweet and soooo talented!!  If you are not part of the group you are missing out.  I'll have several cards to share with you during the hop. The first day of the hop is today at 9:00 AM EST and it will end December 18th.  In order to win any of the amazing prizes, all you have to do is link up a card on the blog.  Easy peasy!!  So let me show you the card I came up with.

I just had to use this sentiment on my card.  And if I'm on a coffee run then my mugs have to run with me.  LOL  This is an older stamp set from TPC.  I've had it for years.  I drew legs on my mugs so they looked like they were running.  And I used some snowflakes for the background.  Very easy card to put together.  If you looking for some great tutorials check out my Youtube channel.  Don't forget to subscribe.  So let's see what you have up your sleeve.  Can't wait to hop and see all your amazing cards and creations.
