Just Us Girls Challenge #514 - Color Week

You can't get any better then teal!

Whatcha think?  Personally, I love it!  But then again, I am a total teal person!  I used Altenew's Hennah Elements with matching dies[one of my most favorite sets!], along with a sentiment from Altenew's Label Love.

Your turn!  Come on over to the JUGS Challenge and play along!  The shades of teal should make for an amazing gallery!

Tracy's 25 Days of Christmas Tags 2019 - STAMPlorations

Today, I am featuring a few tags made with STAMPlorations products.  [STAMPlorations is one of the many sponsors of this fun Christmas Tag hop].

Even though I am recently retired from Starbucks [I made my goal of 20 years!], I still have some customers that I keep in contact with.  That said, I went ahead and used all 3 of the Zen Coffee Cup CUTplorations to make 3 of my 4 tags.  These will work perfectly for a small gift into the Christmas cards I will be mailing out. I cut out the solid background with regular card stock, and the intricate cut out of [a close to color] glitter paper.  I like the monotone look.  I also used the Reindeer head CUTplorations.  Lastly, I black shaded the new Christmas Words CUTploration Dies, and adhered them over the top.

For my 4th tag, I used the Christmas Baubles 2 CUTplorations dies, along with the Luggage Tags for my tag base. While I haven't done it yet, I will be punching a hole and threading in some twine so these can hang.

Feel free to use my code, STAMPGIRLVICKID, to save 20% off any of STAMPlorations products.

Meanwhile, pop on over to Tracy's 25 Days to read all about the PRIZES being offered from the amazing list of sponsors!  Also, STAMPlorations is running a Giving Thanks Event.  Lots of fun prizes there too!

Just Us Girls Challenge #513 - Trend Week

I do like this type of challenge.  I always need some type of "storage" container and these challenges motivate me to get er done!

Since I have retired, you would think I would get birthday cards [or any card actually] mailed out!  Apparently not.  So, to motivate myself, I made a card holder.  My plan? The 1st of the every month, I will see who has a birthday - pull a card, address the envie, write the date to be mailed where the stamps goes, and file it in my card folder.  I will have NO EXCUSE now....

 It is completely basic.  I'm good with that - I just need it to be functional, and this is.

Okay, your turn!  I can't wait to see the gallery this week.  I love getting new ABC ideas!  You can upload your project HERE.

Coffee Lovers Hop Final Day

Wow this week went really fast!  I can't believe it's been 8 days of coffee here on my blog.  [I love it]

Last day to join in the Coffee Lovers Hop.

 For my final card, I used the cup from Dare 2B Artzy's Perfect Blend, along with [the OOB] Inspired By Stamping Snowflakes for the sentiment and flakes.

I used an embossing folder for the top panel of this shaker card.

I hope you enjoyed my week of coffee cards. I had a blast making them!  Thanks Amy and fellow stampers for another amazing hop!

Seize the Birthday Challenge - Off the Edge

This challenge is Off the Edge.

I used the stunning Simon Says Beautiful Flowers,  [I adore this set!] along with a sentiment from Ranger Letter It Birthday stamp set.  I added in the fun tiny cup to qualify for the CLH.

Your turn!  Come on over to Seize the Birthday Challenge and play along.  While "off the edge" is an option, being a birthday card is not.  I'm also entering this into the Coffee Lovers Hop.

Happy Little Stampers November ATC Challenge

With the challenge today, I am also entering my coins into the Coffee Lovers Hop.

I used the directions from my teammate Helen Liu's blog for the base of my coins.  I added the tiny cup from CAS-ual Fridays Coffee Cup Fri-Dies, along with a sentiment from Peace Love & Coffee.  I do love the MISTI for helping to make the rounded sentiment.

Your turn.  Come on over to the Happy Little Stampers ATC Challenge and play along!  Pretty easy to add die cuts to them.

Coffee Lovers Hop

 Day 5 of the Coffee Lovers Hop

I started with a oval cut sponged panel, and the cup from Stampin Up stamp set, Perfect Blend, which I colored with Copics.  I white embossed a sentiment from  Hero Arts A Little stamp set on vellum, and adhered it over the top of the coffee cup.

How are your coffee cards coming along?  I'm sure having fun :)
