Coffee Lover's Blog Hop - Project by Shanna Slater

Hello, Shanna here with a fun caffeinated card using SRM Stickers Coffee Plans clear stamp set.  SRM Stickers is a Super Sponsor for this year's Fall Coffee Lover's Blog Hop, be sure to "hop" over and check it out!

 I simply adore this set for it's tremendous versatility (it is a go to set for me frequently!).  In this particular project I used nearly every stamp in the set! 

I stamped all of my images using my stamp positioner for precision placement using Versamark ink

 I heat embossed all of my stamped images in a white detail embossing powder, allowing them to all stay front and center after inking over them with Distress Oxides in Vintage Photo.  The coffee cup you see in my pictures isn't just a prop...It's a TOOL too!  I watered down some walnut stain Distress ink and dipped the bottom of my cup in the ink.....stamped the "coffee ring" around my panel and again on the inside of my card to frame out my sentiment! 

 I love how the regular Distress ink and Distress Oxides collide and look.  

Everyone needs a little encouragement....and caffeine generally helps too! 

Supplies used in this project:

SRM Stickers Coffee Plans Clear Stamp Set

Versamark Ink

Distress Oxide in Vintage Photo

Distress Ink in Walnut Stain

WOW Super Bright White Detail embossing powder

Recollections Clear embossing powder

Tim Holtz Stamp platform

Miscellaneous puffy heart stickers

Coffee Washi (Recollections I think)

 As avid coffee addict drinker I love everything about this card... 

                                              What about you??  

And remember what coffee says... "You can do it"!!!

Until next time, stay happily caffeinated!!

Coffee Love by Michele

Good morning my crafty, coffee loving friends! We are so excited to be participating in the Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop and to be a Super Sponsor too!

  Michele here with a card today using the new set from SRM called, Coffee Plans! It is such a fun set!  First, here's a look at the stamp! Leave a comment and you might just WIN it!

I loved all of the images and thought, why not use ALL of them on my card? ;).

I cut each image in a different shaped circle and sponged a bit of pink ink while the die was still in place.  I used Copics for the images and added glossy accents to each.  I think I went a little nutty with the glitter.....but hey! Glitter makes everything better right?  (Or is that chocolate?)

I used a large LOVE Die cut because I really wanted to get across how much I LOVE my coffee! I added a few sequins, and a little felt heart to finish off the card.  

Thank you for stopping by today!!

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop - Fall Gift Bag by Angi

Welcome back for the last day of the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.  We have had a blast sharing lots of fun coffee and tea related projects with you and giving away a prize or two! 

Today we welcome design team member Angi Barrs who is sharing a wonderful gift bag that she created to hold a Starbucks Gift Card.  Angi used SRM's new 3x5" Linen Bag for this project. 

Let's hear from Angi in her own words.

***********

I am a PROUD coffee addict! That is why I just had to participate in the fun and crafty "Fall Coffee Lovers Blog Hop". 

I dressed up a 3" x 5" rustic linen bag from SRM Stickers. They are the perfect size for gifting.  Do you see that little touch of SRM lace coming out the top of the bag?  I'm loving the lace!

I then used various dies to make leaves. The mix of linen and leaves fits so well into the fall theme too! 

I placed a Starbucks gift card on the inside of the bag and placed it all inside of a coffee themed mug. I got the mug at Target. Isn't it cute?

I used a free printable from Yellow Bliss Road to make the tag. I just resized it down and printed it out.  I then used a die to make the oval shape. Easy peasy!

Thanks for joining us today and each of the days during the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!  We have loved being a part of such a great event.  And be sure to drop by our blog anytime.  We have a design team that posts projects 5 days a week.  There's lots of inspiration here all year long!  

See you at the next Coffee Lovers Blog hop and a BIG thanks to Amy Tsuruta for organizing this awesome event!

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop - You're My Cup of Tea by Cathy

Hi everyone and welcome back for another day of the Coffee Lover's Blog Hop!  Cathy here with you today and I have a fun little gift set to share with you, using one of SRM's new 4x6 Linen bags.  I started with soaking my linen bag is some strong tea, just to give it an aged looked.  You can really tell along the edges.  After it dried, I ironed it flat and then added my saying with some printable vinyl. 

The linen bags hold quit a bit, I was surprised how many little tea bags and tea bag holders I could fit inside.  I decorated some single tea bags with just a circle punch and SRM stickers from the 

Life is Good sentiment set.

Along with the tea bags, I made these adorable tea bag holders, you simply unfold them and your tea bag is ready to go.  I added Caribbean Baker's Twine to each one along with more stickers from the Life is Good set.  

A super fun gift set for this Autumn season.  

Thanks for joining us today at SRM!

Coffee Lovers Fall Blog Hop - Happiness Is Coffee & You by Juliana

Welcome to our 3rd post for the Coffee Lover's Blog Hop!  Today we are treated to a wonderful card from design team member Juliana Michaels   Here's what Juliana has to say in her own words: 

***********

Hello SRM Stickers Fans! It's Juliana here and I'm happy to be playing along with the Coffee Lovers Fall Blog Hop with some fabulous stamps and stickers from SRM Stickers! Anyone who knows me, knows I love my coffee, so creating a card for this blog hop was right up my alley!

To create my card, I used the adorable Jane's Doodles Tea Time stamp set. I stamped the cups and then colored them using colored pencils. I blended the colors using a blender stump and gamsol. I really love how this gives the colors a nice smooth look and makes them look like I colored them with markers. I then added the "Happiness Is..." border sticker from the We've Got Your Border Bright sticker set.

To complete my sentiment, I added letter stickers and then continued the sentiment into the inside of the card. 

Happiness truly is coffee and you!

Here''s the stamp I used for my card.

Thanks for stopping by today and we can't wait to see what "coffee" themed cards you create with SRM Stickers products!

HUGS!
Juliana

For her bright and bold card Shannon used lots of her SRM goodies including SRM's Tea Time clear stamp by Jane's Doodles, clear stickers including Sticker Stitches and some delicious Lilac Twine!  Notice the use of SRM's lace and floral ribbon also used in the layering on this card.  YUM!

Here's a close up of the Tea Time stamp Shannon used for her card.

And a close up of the details of Shannon's card.   Love all the layering of lace, ribbon, patterned paper, cardstock, washi tape, sequins, twine and stickers.  Simply delicious!

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!

Today we feature a beautiful card from our design team member Shantaie Fowler featuring our Tea Time stamp from Jane's Doodles.  But it can be used for coffee too! :) 

The adorable Tea Time stamp set by Jane's Doodles really is a keeper, and totally perfect for this hop! Shantaie stamped the coffee cup onto watercolor paper in black ink and set it with clear embossing powder. After coloring it in she added a layer of glossy accents to the coffee, and her cup has a stream of hearts {love} floating above it instead of steam!

Shantaie's card features a shaker circle filled with metallic colored sequins backed with a white lace doily and 2 coffee stir sticks.  A pretty lace ribbon knot is embellished with a paper flower and gold leaves, and those all important Sticker Stitches at the top and bottom of the card!  She all brought it  together with fall shades of mustard, java, and teal. I can't wait to see all of the coffee inspired projects along this hop, I bet you feel the same way!
