Coffee anyone?

 In anticipation of the holidays, Cammie and I donated some hand made gift items for a charity basket for a local fundraiser for a Special Olympics camp.  Cammie made 2 adorable Petite Cafe Gift Bags #135826 for Thanksgiving and Christmas.  The Petite Cafe Gift Bags are available in the Stampin Up holiday catalog that are kraft poly-lined food safe bags with a tin tie  closure and the right size for stamping and gift giving.

For the Thanksgiving bag, Cammie used the Gorgeous Grunge stampset #130517 to create the background.  The dot panel was done using the Dots & Stripes Decorative Masks #133775 a dauber and ink.  She added a cluster of Feathers using the Four Feathers Stamp set #135053 and the coordinating Feathers Framelits #135852.

For the Christmas bag, Cammie used the Gorgeous Grunge to create the Background and wrapped a piece of DSP to create a belly band.  She then wrapped Bakers Twine and finished it off with a coordinating coffee cup from the Perfect Blend Stamp set #131392.

Love these bags and they look even cuter with a 1 pound bag of coffee.

Coffee anyone?

 Today’s card is a real pick me up kind of card.  Cammie created#131269  a coffee stain background using a Starbucks cup and a few drops of reinkers to make realistic stains.  She added the 2 strips of Epic Day #131269 Washi Tape.  She created a Tag using the Angled Tag Topper #133323.  She stamped the coffee cup with the Perfect Blend #131392 stamp set in the Stampin Up annual catalog. She stamped the coffee cup wrap was stamped on a scrap piece of DSP and then hand cut the wrapper and added neutrals candy dots #130934.  The sentiment was also from the Perfect Blend stampset.

Coffee & Friends

Today’s card is the perfect friendship card for male or female friends and features the Perfect Blend stamp set#131392 from the Stampin Up annual catalog. Cammie created the background using a combination of striped DSP and the Off the Grid stamp to make her own background. The coffee cup is stamped and handcut out. Cammie made the coffee sleeve by using the Gorgeous Grunge #130517 stampset on using Cajun craze ink on Cajun craze cardstock.  She finished the card by adding the sentiment and accenting it with white candy dots and the chevron border punch.

Given enough coffee…

… I could rule the world, temporarily.  Although I don’t drink coffee, I love this saying and almost everything else about coffee except for the taste.  On the otherhand, my other sisters love coffee and Cammie sure had the perfect blend to make today’s card.  She textured every layer of this card using different Stampin Up textured folders.  She used the Perfect Blend #131392 stampset to make her cup and sentiment.  She stamped the sleeve on DSP and cut out the cup and sleeve.  Cammie mounted the sentiment on Punched Label Bracket #132153 punch.  Cammie used the Chevron border punch #132154 to accent and draw attention to the sentiment. Both punches are only available in the Stampin Up Holiday catalog and available for purchase through 2 January 2014.

Coffee and Friends

 Coffee and Friends are truly the perfect blend!  Cammie combined the Gorgeous Grunge #130517 and the Perfect Blend #131392 stamp sets from the Stampin Up annual catalog to create today’s card. The card details are pretty straight forward and the results truly are a perfect blend.

Coffee Anyone

 Who does not love coffee and the power of 2 cups. Today’s post is a super fun card Cammie made featuring  the Perfect Blend stampset #131392 from the current Stampin Up annual catalog.  The coffee sleeves were stamped on a piece of retired DSP. Cammie used the Gorgeous Grunge #130517 stampset to create the coffee stained background.  Cammie modified the cute Yippee Skippee #131344 stampset by adding a banner stamped with Cups using the Sketch Alpha Numbers #130565 stampset. Turned out cute and quirky.
