May Your Cup Overflow w/Stamp Simply

Welcome by my little piece of blog land, everyone.  I very much appreciate your visits here, and if you leave me a comment, well, that's icing on top.  It's always a treat to have my creative friends stop by to say hello.  Your stops by my blog don't go unnoticed, and I'm grateful for you.  Today I'm sharing a card that I created for Stamp Simply using one of their (many) fabulous stamp and die combo sets.

I used basic black cardstock for my base.  I layered that with some super FUN patterned papers found in the Coffee or Tea 6x6 Paper Pad.  I used stamps (both images and sentiments) found in the Have a Cup On Us Stamp Set, and I colored all of them using my Copic markers.  I cut each of the coffee images using the coordinating Have a Cup On Us Dies.

Aren't those patterned papers from the Coffee or Tea 6x6 Paper Pad super cool?  I especially love the dirty coffee rings.  I used the Fishtail Banner Dies to cut the sentiment strips.  I tied some Baker's Twine around my card as the finishing touch.  There are lots of great coffee sets available at Stamp Simply.  They carry just about every sentiment you can imagine, as well as beautiful images, stencils and so much more.

There's always a lot of amazing inspiration on the Stamp Simply Blog as well as on the Stamp Simply Instagram Page.  You'll find wonderful stamp sets, dies, embossing folders, ribbons and much more when you stop at Stamp Simply.  Thanks again for visiting me here today.  I'm so grateful for you.

Enjoy A Cup w/Stamp Simply

I'm not sure about you, but I absolutely LOVE coffee.  I start my day, every day, with a Vanilla Latte.  So, when it comes to create cute coffee cards, I always know that I can count on Stamp Simply to have all the perfect stamps, dies and products.  In fact, no matter what the theme; I always find what I need when I look to Stamp Simply for all my card-making, stamping and crafting needs.  See below for how you can SAVE 15% today on these fun products.

I used basic white cardstock for my base and I layered that with patterned paper from the Craft Consortium's Retro Summer 6x6 Paper Pad.  The cups were stamped using the Have A Cup on Us Stamp Set and cut using the coordinating Have A Cup on Us Dies.  The sentiments (Enjoy a Cup of Java) are found in the Coffee or Tea Stamp Set.

I wrapped some Light Blue Baker's Twine around my card, and also tied a bow with that and a length of Solid Pink Baker's Twine.  The cute stamped coffee beans and the background sentiment can be found in the A Cup of Java Stamp Set.  The background is SO cute in those bright inks and Stamp Simply has many great stamps to help you create awesome backgrounds like this.

I also added some Pretty Purple Seam Binding to my card as well.   As you can see here, I also decorated the INSIDE of my card by adding and decorating a glassine bag to tuck in a Starbucks gift card.  The two little pink flowers are from the May Arts Adhesive Rosettes Trim.  The sentiment on the gift card holder is found in the A Cup of Java Stamp Set.  Everything from Stamp Simply works so nicely together with their other products, or when used on their own.

I just have to also mention that those ADORABLE (fake) coffee beans that I used as props are from a darling Etsy shop called Twiddler's Nook.  It's owned by a really sweet gal, and she has ADORABLE sprinkles that you might want to see.   Just saying.  Thanks for stopping by today.  Please visit Stamp Simply as well as the Stamp Simply Blog for lots of great inspiration.    As promised, here's a code for 15% OFF at Stamp Simply.

I'm playing along here:

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Add Some Texture - I almost always add texture(s) to my cards.  I struggle with CAS, so you'll likely see lots of twines, bows, paper layers, glassine bags, and all sorts of textural layers on my cards.
