Good morning friends
I had my cards all ready to post this week, but I completely forgot about the 2017 Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop being this week. So I'm back today with my second card for the hop and second blog post for the day. Since the last blog hop, I've been really enjoying using my (growing) collection of cup stamps & dies. These cards are in a Christmas theme, so I made two nearly identical ones for my stash.
When the Stampin' Up Holiday catty went live I ordered the Merry Cafe set. I had had my eye on the Coffee Cafe set from the main catalogue but thought if I got the Merry Cafe set, I would't want the other one anymore. Wrong. Ha - it made me want it more, so I now have both. They are interchangeable so I've been having lots of fun using them.
These sets also feed my newest addiction - latte's. Normally I get one from Tim Hortons, but have recently tried Starbucks (my first time there, believe it or not) and I love those too. If I have to go into the city for errands, and my route takes me near one or the other - you can bet I'm sipping a latte on the drive home.
For these cards I stamped the 'merry' on the insulating sleve, then went over the stamped letters with a white gel pen. It's easer to see in real life than the photos, but there is the little 'stir stick' at the top with a heart on it and I added glitter glue to it. Now that I have been to Starbucks, I know what these are, ha ha.
Here is a peek at the inside.
