Hey there! Ready for another fun Paper Craft Crew challenge? We have another great card sketch ready and waiting!

The strip on the left edge seemed perfect for some designer series paper. So, I dug into my Plaid Tiding DSP stack. Once I saw this particular sheet, the card came together in my head. Inspired by fall and Pumpkin Spice Lattes (even thought I prefer a Mocha).

The Press On stamp set was perfect for what I had in mind. I wanted a feel of cozy flannel, so I embossed the plaid DSP strip with the Tasteful Textile 3D emboss folder. I stamped some coffee beans on the Early Espresso layer behind the coffee cup. Here’s a closer look:

I colored the coffee cup with my Stampin’ Blends. I used dark and light Mango Melody and light Daffodil Delight on the cup and dark Pumpkin Pie on the lid.

Come on over to the Paper Craft Crew blog and play along! We would love to see your take on this card sketch.

Are you a coffee lover? It took me awhile, but I can now say I am… kind of. Mochas. I like mochas. It has to have chocolate involved. I love the smell of coffee, but can not drink it black. But, I do love a good coffee themed stamp set. So, when I saw the Press On set in the new Stampin’ Up! mini catalog, I knew I had to have it. This set was designed by Million Sales Achiever Joyce Feraco. Thanks, Joyce!

For the background of my card, I went for various types of coffee lovers: those who take it black (Early Espresso), my beloved mocha(Soft Suede), and those who like a little coffee with their cream (Crumb Cake). Two coffee cups accented with a little red stand ready to share the coffee love.

another cup of cheer

Wow, it’s just over two weeks to Christmas! How are you doing with your Christmas cards? Do you send out many? I typically send out 80-90, not including the 30+ I make for the employees at Stamp-n-Storage.

Here is another of my recent Christmas creations. I really like coffee, and am drawn to coffee cups/mugs. So the cup of Christmas stamp set was a must have for me. This is a great card to share with a warm winter greeting.

I used the stamp set with the coordinating dies and a bit of the Let It Snow Designer Series Paper. I love the Coastal Cabana/ Real Red color combo for Christmas cards. It is so bright and fun! I tilted the cups to look like they are celebrating a toast. The two rhinestones on the white mug handle were colored with the light Bermuda Bay Stampin’ Blend.

I think I need to go grab a cup of coffee now. Thanks for stopping by. Join me again to shine a spotlight on creativity!

stamp review crew: Cup of Christmas

By

Hey, crafty friends! So glad you decided to stop by today. You are in for a treat, today is the Stamp Review Crew blog hop featuring the Cup of Christmas stamp set from the 2019 Holiday catalog. This is a great set for lovers of coffee, tea or hot cocoa.

The really fun thing about this stamp set is the two mug images are reversible! Check out a great product video Stampin’ Up! has showing this new type of stamp HERE. But, come back. I have two awesome cards to share with you!

My first card I took advantage of the reversible feature so I could have mug handles going both directions.

Mugs stamped in Coastal Cabana on Coastal Cabana card stock and a little bit of Let It Snow Specialty Designer Series Paper make for a fun non-traditional Christmas color combo. I stayed with this same color scheme for my second card as well.

Combine the Cup of Christmas stamp set with the coordinating Cup of Cheer dies for a great Christmas wish for your favorite coffee (or hot cocoa) lover!
