Thankful


 

I just adore the folding technique for this card! It's call the W fold and I learned it from Lisa's Stamp Studio video! You should try it because it was quite easy after I  made my first few cards.

The "thankful" stamp is from Gerda Steiner Designs "Peekin Pumpkin Kitty" set.

More beautiful copper foil cardstock from Recollections!


 When it's opened, the W fold sticks out with 4 cute panels on it! The kitten with the latte cup is from Newton's Nook and the mug with thanks sentiment is from an oldie but goodie Fiskar's stamp set.

Card number 5 for the hop is for the Tea drinker's out there!

Yes, another sentiment from Stamploration's "Caffeinated Christmas."  Can you tell I really enjoyed using this set this year?! :)

Your Kindness Warms My Heart

 

 

Yay, my favorite blog hop! Well, let's be honest, the only blog hop I participate in...lol! :)

I'm a little late starting this time, the official start date was Friday November 6th, but better latte than never! 


In love with this Recollections copper foil cardstock I found at Michael's! (Yes they have rose gold, gold, silver and other colors too!)


 

This paper pad is also from Michael's. It's a Recollections Pumpkin Spice paper pad that was in their "Hot Buy" section last Fall.


 
And a little something on the inside.  This card is number 386 in the bloghop.

Exploding Tea Box!



Making 5 exploding boxes for a friend to mail out to others!



The paper pad is a "Hot Buy" 12 x 12" pad from Michael's titled "Tea Party".
I also left the little white tag on the front blank so someone can write what they'd like on the tag. (To/From, happy birthday, etc)



Below is the first layer. Each pocket has either a note or some teabags in the next picture.

Tea bags included are: Tazo Calm chamomile, Decaf Lotus blossom, Lipton Green Tea with Acai, and an organic nettle leaf tea.


Close ups of layer number 2. Adore this rose paper with the shiny gold foil backdrop!




Third inner layer! I left the center flat so a small gift can be placed inside. (More tea, small candle, soap, bath bomb, etc)



Don't forget to link up your projects by 11:55pm tonight! (Friday May 29th, 2020)

Books + Coffee = Happiness



Another card using stamps from The Ton. I just adore this sentiment too because a good book and a cup (or in my case, a pot) of coffee is very much my happy place!

Sweet Birthday



Had to have these sweet macaroon stamps!! Plus, what better to go with them than your favorite coffee or tea?


Glitter on the mug for some serious birthday sparkle.  :)

Happy Place



Another stamp set from The Ton Stamps! This one is called "Happy Place". The peony and book stamp along with the sentiment came from that set. The coffee mug is an older stamp I've had for a while now, not even sure who made it.


The sentiment reads, "Reading gives us some place to go when we have to stay where we are." ~Mason Cooley


Added some Glossy Accents to the coffee and some cute sequins. (The sequins are from Dollar Tree! Crafting on a budget for the little details.)

This project is number 745 in the blog hop.

Sealed With A Kiss



Found this cute seal in my stash and he just had to balance a coffee (or tea)
travel cup on his nose.


For the background, I used 2 Distress Ink colors, Weathered Wood and Scattered Straw.


And, of course, a sequin falls off while i'm trying to photograph the card....figures, lol!
