DTC #152 - Participating with Coffee Lover's Fall/Winter Blog Hop - Day 3

Join us at Double Trouble Challenge #152 and hop on by and enjoy the CRAFTEINATING inspiration by our Design Team and entrants. This card was inspired by the Try Stampin' on Tuesday Sketch #630 and include their theme a "Warm Drink".

DTC DeJa-Brew is participating with 2023 Coffee Lover's Fall/Winter Blog Hop and here is my Coffee themed card for Day 3.

The to-go-cup was stamped with black ink, colored with Copic brush pens in a variety of colors, fussy-cut and set aside... notice there is a holly on the to-go-cup. Using the pine patterned paper an oval scalloped die was used for the circular background of the sketch, adhered to the plaid, edges and corners cut and layered with a pine cardstock and applied to the card base.

Another two pieces of plaid was cut as to place the to-go-cup... cut off lid, rounded the cup using 3D thin and regular foam tape and adhered to the plaid coaster. Used foam tape on back of the lid and overlaped a smidgen of the lid over the to-go-cup. Finished with a sentiment using black ink directly on the plaid background in the bottom corner .

On the inside R-H border of the card base adhered a strip of each of the same patterned papers used for the front of the card.

DTC #152 - Participating with Coffee Lover's Fall/Winter Blog Hop - Day 2

Join us at Double Trouble Challeng #152 "DeJa-Brew" and hop on by and enjoy the CRAFTEINATING inspiration by our Design Team and entrants. As a previous winner at Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmaker my prize primarily included a Santa stamp set and paperpack which inspired this card and Sketch #39 was perfect for the Santa stamp.

DTC is participating with 2023 Coffee Lover's Fall/Winter Blog Hop and here is my Coffee themed card for Day 2.

Another PERK? If you have included at least one Holly element on a Christmas coffee theme card, you can also enter the Coffee Lover's challenge at "Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge #23"

This was a fun card to put together in meeting all the requirements of the three challenges and my Design Team card for our Double Trouble challenge.

The North Pole map and swirly sky patterned papers were perfect for Santa's lift off and were adhered to Candy Apple cardstock. My new die "stitched border strips" were cut with same cardstock and used for separation of the panels in sketch. Sentiment stamped direct on background with black Memento ink.

Stamped the Santa in Sleigh using black ink, stamped coffee beans on Santa's bag, colored with a variety of colors using Copic Sketch brush pens, fussy-cut around Santa and sleigh, and cut image to separate Santa's bag.

Santa wanted a large coffee because it was going to be a long night... so I slit along the sleigh line to place a cup. Cut a To-Go-Cup, stamped a Holly, colored, adhered with foam tape between the sleigh and Santa. Santa and sleigh were lined up with Santa's bag... bag adhered direct to background and sleigh adhered with 3D thin foam tape for additional dimension. For additional embellishment added liquid glass to the bells on sleigh and Santa's nose. Photos below will show the dimension, embellishment and inside of card using left-over patterned paper.

And don't forget the perk at Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge #23 if you have created a Christmas coffee theme card and have included a holly.

Boo - Double Trouble Challenge #123 "Let's Get Around To It" with AHSC #496

This is a Halloween card for our Double Trouble Challenge #123 "Lets Get Around To It"... simply need at least one circle on your project to meet the DTC requirements. To earn extra chances for for our random draw prize use our partner's sketch Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #496.

This was quite a sketch to work with and took some thought on what I was going to use to create a spooky cute Halloween card... I think I managed it with changing the sketch to a landscape and using miscellaneous pieces from my stash. The background paper is very old not really a Halloween patterned paper; but the purple and pattern just made it a Holiday night time sky for the cute ghost and bat sticker images that come out at night and swirl around the sky. The circle gave it movement and the panels in the center brought in some color. Spiders were used in the corners for my embellishment, and a Boo sticker added for my sentiment. Happy Halloween.
