Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!


Woo hoo!  Today is the start of the Winter Coffee Lovers Hop and I'm all prepped and ready!  I'll be posting cards and projects all week long so make sure to stop by every day!  I'm excited to be a SUPER SPONSOR again this season on my other Fun Stampers Journey Blog so make sure to visit there too!  I'll be awarding one lucky participant a $25.00 gift certificate to shop my store!  WOO!  

My projects are set to post each day and each one is a special holiday gift for someone.  I have created a variety of projects and I had so much fun playing, planning and creating some fun treats to share.   This first project is a special card for a very special inky friend.  I thought about her favorite colors, her favorite themes and even gulped down a cup of yummy coffee so I could incorporate the little sleeve in the design.  This card will accompany a very special coffee-loving gift.  
I used two stamp sets for this card.  my first choice was the new Bossy Joscie clear set called Christian Greetings.  I love this set because of the perfectly perfect sentiments and the yummy font.  I also love that it has a pretty floral image in the set that can be combined for a summer/spring...and WINTER card.  Yep, it's a winter rose.  ;)

My second stamp set is from A Creative Journey With Melissa.  I love her collection of coffee themed stamp sets and "Coffee, Tea and Wine, OH MY!" works perfectly with the floral image and the scripty sentiment I used.

ColorBox Chalk Charcoal Ink was used on the sentiment and I inked the flower with Ranger Distress Pine Needles.  I watercolored a bit of Vintage Photo and painted a bit of shine with some Gold Silk from FSJ.

I hope you enjoyed this creation today and I'm off to check out all the fun and fab creations already posted!  Happy Hopping and see you tomorrow!  :)
