Sunday Sip and Share...Fill Me Up!

Hello there Coffee Loving friends!  It's Kerry here for another installment of Sunday Sip and Share! I hope you've been having fun hopping along with the Spring Coffee Lovers Hop!  I've been so inspired by the many awesome creations posted thus far and can't wait to see more!

Today, I'm sharing a project created in my Journaling Bible.  Hope you enjoy!

The sentiment on the coffee cup "Stir Up My Heart" inspired my search for the perfect Bible Verse and I found it in Hebrews 10:24-25.  This verse was a good reminder to me.  This stamp set called Fill me Up from Sweet n' Sassy (Creative Worship series).  I stamped the cups onto white cardstock, added some watercolor and cut them out. After that, I watercolored the pages and highlighted the scripture.

Embellishing came last.  Adding some texture by using pink tissue paper (this set came wrapped in the tissue paper!) and some sparkle washi tape and corrugated paper.

A few sketchy journaling elements and doodles over the watercolored layer helped me finish the panels off.

A closer look at the scripture helps encourage me to stir up myself and others...Be good, do good things.  Encourage others by demonstrating faithfulness and a true heart.

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you were inspired by this creation.  As with all of my Sunday Sip and share posts, I created a sketch that you can use to make some awesome cards!  I won't add an inlinkz today so that you can add it to the coffee hop itself. Enjoy the hop and see you in blogland!  :)

Sunday Sip and Share...Lucky!!!

Hello there coffee loving friends!  I'm back with another Sunday Sip and Share for the Coffee Loving Cardmakers blog and I am happy to share an adorable little lucky clover card I created especially for St. Patrick's Day.  I wanted to create a little card that features a fun, non-traditional shape so I fussy cut a clover to display this yummy tumbler image.  It's a fun and whimsical little card, don'tcha think? 

After fussy cutting the clover card base (top fold so it can stand), I rubbed a little bit of green ink onto the card.  After that, I splattered the clover with some gold and green Silk.  Next, I attached some old lace from my stash, a few twigs (picked up while hunting for lucky clovers) and some blingy sequin trim.  I topped it off with some bling that I colored with a gold marker.   

For my stamped image, I used my brand-spankin' new faith-based coffee set from Sweet 'n Sassy Designs (Rebecca Rios Designs-Creative Worship Collection).  I stamped the tumbler onto white cardstock then added a bit of cream and green watercolor to give it added dimension.  After that, I stamped the sleeve onto a scrap of green from my card base and doodled a bit of gold and black ink onto the design so that it would fit with my shamrock theme.  

A closer peek at the embellishment treatment- the card wouldn't be complete without some treasured embellishments!  

Now let's take a peek at the sketch that was inspired by this card!  We're into week TWO of the March Sketch Challenges and this one's a doozie!  Create a card (any shape but standard) and include some sort of coffee/tea or cocoa theme.  Have fun and I hope to see a ton of entries!  Just add yours to the linky below.  At the end of the month, I'll select a winner to receive a fun coffee-loving prize!
