Hi Crafty Friends!
It's time for a good brew hence today's projects are being coffee themed using papers from The Coffee House Collection from The Artistic Crafter's Collage Paper Anthology, Vol. 1 collection by STAMPlorations.
I simply couldn't resist these deliciously roasted coffee beans. They were perfect for making my heart shaped chipboard coaster. Here it is...
I simply covered the heart with the coffee bean paper, layered a fuzzy-cut cup and cupcake on top and added a small heart and die-cut sentiment before finishing with a few coats of Mod Podge for protection.
The dark colour for the sentiment was purposefully chosen as to not to overpower the cup and cupcake images.
Next up is one of two cards using fuzzy-cut images from one of The Coffee House papers.
To ground the cup and make the images flow better I added a 'saucer' using the Ovals Flexi-Template by first lightly blending ink through a larger oval before adding/inserting the smaller oval and blending another layer of ink.
I finished off with a few gems and a snipped up sticker sentiment from the Just Caffeinate collection.
The next card uses the Ovals Flexi-Template in a similar way...
... with a little added extra. Leaving the oval frames in place, I placed the Senecio 1 stencil on top and blended a little more ink through it leaving a delicate pattern on the darker oval centre. This card was finished off with gems and a die-cut sentiment.
Here are some close-ups ...
I hope you enjoyed me sharing my caffeinated projects. It's time now to enjoy my brew. BTW, I like mine black. How do you like yours?
Until next time
hugs
