Hi Friends!
Today I am sharing another
quick card featuring the brand new Stamp Simply 6x6 paper pad- Coffee or Tea.
As I mentioned
before, I love the pastel colors with the coffee theme as well as the pretty
gingham, lace doily and other patterns in this new paper pad!
I paired the
beautiful Coffee or Tea paper with a sentiment from the Give Thanks stamp set along with circle
die, banner
dies, crochet
lace and pearls (all from Stamp Simply)!
This card was another fairly easy card to create, and I was able to incorporate another SplitcoaststampersSketch (SC458) into the layout, woohoo! FYI- I have a personal goal to create one card for each of their over 1,000 sketch challenges, I am half way there :-).
I also enjoy playing along with other online challenges and will be linking this card to the Double Trouble #175 "Any Way You Punch It" Challenge (I used two dies- a circle and a banner die versus punches) and the Word Art Wednesday #667-#668 "Anything Goes" Challenge.
If you have not had a chance to check out the rest of my Sister Design Team cards on the Stamp Simply blog, or the other challenge sites yet, I hope you take the time to do so- fabulous inspiration from all!
To create this card:
Trim a piece of the Coffee or Tea designer paper to approx. 4” x 5 ¼”, distress the
edges with scissors or a distressing tool.
Mount the panel on a
piece of deep purple cardstock, trim to approx. 4 ¼” x 5½”.
Adhere the distressed
designer
paper panel onto a white card base.
Trim another piece
of the Coffee
or Tea paper (the striped panel) on the diagonal (per the sketch).
Mount the diagonal panel
onto deep purple cardstock and adhere a piece of the crochet lace behind the panel before mounting onto the card front.
Mount the entire
panel onto a white card base.
Die cut the strip
of Coffee or Tea designer paper with the Farmhouse
Sentiment Banners Dies, distressing the edges.
Die
cut a larger banner from the same die set from deep purple cardstock,
distressing the edges.
Layer the two
banners together onto the card front.
De-static a piece of
white cardstock with an embossing powder tool, ink the Give Thanks verse sentiment with Versafine Onyx Black ink , stamp onto the prepared cardstock, apply clear embossing
powder, heat set with a heat tool.
Once the embossing
has cooled, die cut with a circle
die (die cutting a second
circle from the same die from deep purple cardstock to split in half, then layer
behind the sentiment circle).
Mount the layered
sentiment circle to the card front with dimensional foam.
Finish off the card
with a few
soft blue pearls and a strip of the designer
paper on the left-hand side of the inside panel (I like to do this to use up
my scraps).

Your paper is so pretty, Julie. Great layout, too, and your sentiment is perfectly lovely. Thank you for sharing with us at Double Trouble Challenge #175.
Julie, such a BEAUTIFUL interpretation of the sketch! I love how you combined it with our Double Trouble "Anyway You Punch It" theme to create a card pretty enough to frame!! That lace just adds the right touch. -Donna
Such a nice assortment of patterned papers and colors and great interpretation of the sketch. Love the tea theme and sentiment. Thanks for sharing with us at Double Trouble.
What a fun and fabulous coffee card, Julie. Your design is really creative and lovely. I'm always thrilled to have you play along in our challenges at Word Art Wednesday and I appreciate you very much. Best of luck in the random draw. Have a wonderfully blessed and creative week. I praise God for you.
