Card Inspiration Masculine
Coffee Lovers’ Christmas Card
This card is inspired by the Double Trouble Challenge “Deja-BREW” (#125). I love playing with Double Trouble! Sometime I have trouble (at first) with their challenges, but I always end up with a fun card. This time I discovered that I do not have enough stamps. In my entire collection, I could not find a good coffee stamp! How could this be?! Clearly I need more stamps!
However, I couldn’t let a supply issue stop me, so off to my Cricut I went. I found the perfect cut (a coffee cup) which I was able to turn into a card. I think it turned out super cute!
I am entering this card into the Double Trouble Challenge and following Thing 2’s Double Dare to enter the Coffee Lover’s Blog Hop. I also featured Only Two for Color Dare Challenge #522. Hope you can join me in both of these fun challenges!
Card Details
This one was super fun to create. I used Honey butter for the card base and added the coffee holder and lid in glacier. These were the color Dare Challenge colors!
The stamping is all from the Christmas Snowflake Mandalas Stamp of the month. This stamp is awesome and only available this month! I stamped the smaller mandala with Honey Butter ink on Honey Butter cardstock then I stamped the image again with versamark ink so that I could add clear embossing powder. The result is a sparkly yellow snowflake!
Stamping Tip: use a stamp positioner (I used the misti) to line up the stamping perfectly.
I stamped the small snowflake with glacier on glacier paper and cut both out. I then popped them up with foam tape onto the card. Finally I added the sentiment with glacier ink and used clear embossing powder to add shimmer.
I hope you like the card and feel inspired to create.
Happy Stamping,
