Coffee and Friends

Happy Saturday crafty friends! 

Joann here today sharing a fun card that I made using PCS Coffee Faces and Coffee Sentiments stamp set!

I stamped my coffee cup from the Coffee Faces stamp set several times to create my background. I then took a few sheets of pattern paper, stamped my image onto them and cut a portion from the cup to help add a fun look to them.

To finish my card I took a sentiment from the Coffee Sentiments stamp set, stamped it to some black card stock and scattered a few sequins to add a little sparkle.

Well that is all that I have for you today, thank you so much for stopping by!

Have a fabulous weekend!

You Mocha Me Giggle!

Hi Stamper Friends!!

How cute is this miniature coffee cup?!!

It is the perfect size for filling with your favorite candy goodies

or maybe a Kcup of your favorite brew.  I think it would be awesome

to put a mocha flavored truffle in there and give it 

as a fun little "just because" gift.

Attach a coffee gift card for a really special little treat!

You can find these cute little cups online.  I used the coffee bean stamps from the Pretty Cute Stamps Coffee Sentiments set and some cocoa colored ink to make the design on the cup.  Even though the cup is curved, it was easy to stamp.  I created the coffee sleeve with some corrugated cardstock.  After punching out the green scalloped circle, I punched out the smaller white circle to stamp the design onto.  I used a sentiment from the Coffee Sentiments set and the cute face is 

from the Coffee Faces set.

I thought it turned out really sweet.

You can find both of these fun sets in the Pretty Cute Stamps Store.
Thank you for stopping by and Happy Stamping!

Need my Coffee!!!

Happy Wednesday everyone!!!!  

Amy here today sharing a super cute card I made using Coffee Faces!!!



I think this card came out so cute!!! The base is a kraft card stock, I embossed the cream card stock and just love how it looks on the card.  I wanted just a little bit of color to pop off the card so I picked a teal color.  I stamped and cut out 3 of the coffee cups and used my copic markers on them. I wanted something extra on the card so I put twine, wooden circles and the a wooden piece that says "Coffee Time", it all came together really well.

I hope you have enjoyed some inspiration today and to find this set and other fun stamp sets please visit us at Pretty Cute Stamps and don't forget to join us for our monthly challenges!!!

I Don't Do Mornings

Hello friends. How many of you are coffee drinkers? Do you drink 1 or 2 cups in the morning? Or do you drink it all day?
I am a little addicted to coffee. I need a few cups in the morning and sometimes drink it through out the day.

Today I pulled out one of my favorite sets Coffee Faces.

I took a piece of Kraft cardstock and used Kraft ink to stamp the cups all around cardstock. Then I used Distress Ink to sponge the edges.
I stamped the pot of coffee and colored it using Copic markers. I cut it out with a pair of detail scissors. The sentiment I stamped using clear ink and and embossed it in a gold embossing powder.

I matted the card front onto a piece of dark brown cardstock then adhered it onto a white cardbase.

Hope you enjoyed my post today. 

Have a wonderful day friends.

What's brewing?

With the gift giving season upon us I decided to create tag/gift card holder.  What's better than having a coffee themed tag for the coffee shop cards.  The gift cards just go into the back side in a pocket I created.

I started out with the fabulous Coffee Faces stamp set.  I stamped the cups in white pigment and embossed them, although it's hard to see in the picture. I added in some fun alphabet tiles to create my little sentence.  This is going to be just perfect for coffee shop gift cards my kids are giving to teachers this holiday.

Coffee Faces

Get ready for the new challenge that starts on December 19th, the theme is Anything Goes!  Come join us.

Happy Crafting,

Winter/Holiday Coffee Lover's Blog Hop

TGIF, everyone! Welcome to the Holiday Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!  My name is Lisa Norris, and I'm the owner/designer of Pretty Cute Stamps!

I'm so excited to have the opportunity to be a Super Sponsor of the hop...plus, I get to share some fun holiday and coffee themed projects I created using Pretty Cute Stamps!  Before I get to my projects, though, let me tell you that this hop is HUGE and there are some AMAZING prizes up for grabs. Be sure to check out the beginning of the hop HERE to find out about all of the sponsors and prizes and find out how to be eligible to win (one Super Sponsor Prize will be a $25 Gift Certificate to PCS, and a Flash Prize is also a $25 Gift Certificate to PCS, by the way). Oh, and the best thing about this hop is that YOU can participate by creating a holiday/winter themed project that features coffee/hot cocoa, or tea! How cool is that? So, stop by the Coffee Loving Cardmakers blog to find out all about that. Okay...now for my projects:

First, I created this silly little card using the new Pretty Cute Stamps Coffee Faces Stamp Set along with the PCS Gingerbread Kisses Stamp Set. I know I turn into a big ol' Scrooge when I realize I'm all out of coffee! ;)  I colored this sweet little cup with my Copic markers and added a grouchy face from the Coffee Faces set.

I also created this clean and simple card using the hot cocoa mug from the PCS Sip Enjoy Relax Stamp Set, which I colored using my Copics and then added a face I got from the PCS Coffee Faces set. The sentiment is from the PCS Warm Winter Wishes Stamp Set, and I also added some snowflakes from that same set, which I stamped using VersaMark Watermark ink.

Finally, I created this flat postcard-y type card using the Santa from the PCS Dear Santa Stamp Set, along with a little coffee mug and face from the Coffee Faces set. To create the sentiment, I combined sentiments from the PCS Gingerbread Kisses, Coffee Sentiments, and Oh Christmas Tree stamp sets. I added some bling to the background, and my card was all done!

Here are the items I used for my projects today (click on the photos to find them in the store):
