STAMPlorations Inspiration #67

It's time again for some inspiration from the STAMPlorations Team.  STAMPlorations is one of the sponsors over on the [ever so popular] Spring Coffee Lover's Hop.  Therefore, I used a couple of the coffee sets.

I am entering this into the Spring Coffee Lover's Hop, along with CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge #165. (I might have too much green in my card, but the colors are what I based my card from).


Yeah folks - what you see is hand stitching on my fun shaker card :).  [For the life of me, I can not seem to get my sewing machine to play nice.]

I used the following STAMPlorations sets;
Sketchy Coffee Cups & Coffee Happy

For more inspiration, pop on over to the STAMPlorations Blog and check out the other Team Members.  Don't forget to leave a comment -- there is a monthly winner of commenters!


Thanks for stopping by~

Definitely a fun card, Vicki. I'm in awe of your hand stitching, I'd never have guessed it wasn't on a machine if you hadn't said. Thanks for joining us at CAS Colours & Sketches this week, I hope to see you again soon. Liz x

Yay! Love your card Vicki...wow, hand stitching! Makes it over the top awesome!
What kind of machine do you have? Janome?

Becca Yahrling said...

So cute! And I can't believe you hand stitched this! I've always wanted to use my Janome on my cards, but I'm afraid to try it ... and never even thought to hand stitch - thanks for the inspiration.
