Paper Sweeties January 2020 Release Sneak Peeks!

Hi, friends!

Welcome to Paper Sweeties January Release Sneak Peeks!

Debbie is releasing a new Sweet Kit this month.  The two new sets that go along with the Sweet Kit are called Life Begins after Coffee and We go together! Today, I am highlighting the Life Begins after Coffee set.  It's a set with images and sentiments relating to...yes, you guessed it...coffee!  A perfect set to have on hand for your coffee loving friends!

For my slim card, I started with a red card base.  I made the background using distress inks of mustard seed, spiced marmalade, and candied apple. The fab coffee dp for the top and bottom borders is from Photo Play.  The cute cups with smiley faces, coffee cup, sentiment, and coffee pot is from the new set Life Begins after Coffee.  For the shelves, I cut strips of paper and colored them with copics.  Sweet Cuts-Oval Scalloped Frames.  Madison was die cut and colored with copics.  Her outfit is from the set Tackle life one cup at a time.

A view of the inside of the card...

The sentiment and the cup are from the new set Life Begins after Coffee, also.

Note:  This is a Sweet Kit Quarterly Release month, so the new stamps & dies released in the kit are exclusive until the kits are sold out -- if there are any left over after all the kits are sold out, they will be made available to purchase separately.

I had lots of fun making this coffee themed card!  I hope you take a peek at the list below of my talented teammates to view more inspiration!

Happy Birthday!

Hi, Friends!

I'd like to share with you a card I made for a friend's birthday using a stamp set that was gifted to me by Kara(Bright Hope Creations).  I received this at the craft retreat that I went to in October.  I met several wonderful gals, so fun!  I'm entering this card over at Seize the Birthday

For my card, I started with an aqua card base and paired it with a die cut panel using a die from Mama Elephant.  The next panel under the typewriter is from MFT.  The typewriter image and sentiment is from Sugar Pea.  The image was colored with copics and twine to finish the card.

A view of the inside of the card...

The inside sentiment is from Sugar Pea, also.  The scalloped frame is from Paper Sweeties.  And, the cake and balloons are from Lawn Fawn.  I have to say that I was quite surprised using products from several different companies.  I need to do that more while crafting...use those supplies!

Anyways, I hope your new year is starting off well.  Things here are status quo.  My husband is back to work and his knee is getting better with each new day.  I have lots of cleaning and organizing to do here, but can't seem to push myself that far yet.  Yes, you guessed it...I'd rather craft, lol!  But, I'm sure I'll get to it.  Ok, that's all for now, friends.  Take good care and thanks so much for dropping by today!

Hugs!

Dies R Us Challenge-January 1,2020(Anything Goes-using dies from the DRU store)

Hi, Friends!

Happy New Year!  It's a new month and time for another Dies R Us Challenge!  The theme is Anything Goes using dies that are purchased from the Dies R Us store!  We ask that you use at least one die on your project.  Come and join in the fun and have a chance to win a gift certificate!  Enjoy creating!

I decided to make a card celebrating the new year 2020.  I was thinking as I was making this card that I can't believe it's 2020!  The years just fly by, don't they?!

For my shaker card, I started with a white card base.  The shaker mix of sequins and stars is from SU.  The stitched frame and scalloped background is from Sue Wilson-Shadow Box Collection-Scalloped Lattice Frames.  The numbers are from Crafter's Companion-Birthday Party.  And, the stars are from Frantic Stamper-Stars & Stripes Photo Card.  I added a touch of glitter gel on the stars.  Small gold dots to the numbers and stars to finish the card.

 All dies that were used for my card with links are listed below.  I hope you create a project using dies and join us for the challenge!
