Collaboration blog hop with the Coffee Loving Cardmakers!

Hello friends!    Today I'm participating in a fun collaboration blog hop with The Stamps of Life and Coffee Loving Cardmakers in honor of and in celebration of.... National Hot Cocoa Day!  There's lots of inspiration to be found if you hop along with us...

You should have arrived here from The Stamps of Life blog....

I have two cards that I'm going to share with you here today:

My first card is a flip it card!  PLEASE NOTE:  I'm sad to say the heart flip it was a special release and no longer available, BUT there are lots of fun flip card die sets over at The Stamps of Life-----> flip it dies. These fun interactive cards are sooo easy with the card die sets.

I used the stamp and die set from TSOL called hotchocolate2stamp.
I love this set!  The mug, the SPOON!, marshmallows, whipped cream.... fun sayings! 

My 2nd card....

The mug from the hotchocolate2stamp and coordinating die set 
are perfect for personalizing your mug like I did here using TSOL unicornpudgie stamp/die set. 

 inside.... holiday hugs stamp is from gingerbread2stamp.

Thanks so much for hopping with us today.  I hope find some warm and inspiring projects along the way.  Don't forget to leave comments along the way to be entered to win a $25 gift card to The Stamps of Life.  You have until December 20th. ...winner to be posted on Saturday December 22 at 6 am pacific

Your next stop on the hop is the talented.... Katherine Cartwright's blog.
 Happy Hopping!

I'm back with another link up for the Coffee loving paper crafters fall/winter blog hop....

Here's my card...

For this card, I used a newly released (today actually!) exclusive heart flip it card die set from the Stamps of Life.  It's a limited edition so once it's sold out,  it's gone for good.

I also used stamps and dies from mitten2stamp, elves2stamp (merry christmas), and sizzix coffee set by Stephanie Barnard....

Taco Truck

Look at me, two blog posts in one day!  haha.  I'm too excited to share my taco truck card.  The idea popped into my head last night and ..... here it is.......

This is the new club set: icecreamtruck2stamp
that was released today at The Stamps of Life

For my sample card, I created a coffee truck card (see post below), but look at all the fun and yummy options you can choose.... 

Taco trucks are popular here as Tacos are pretty popular these days all around, so.........

I used the icecreamtruck2stamp, of course, along with island2visit stamps (tree, enjoy, and life is good), sun is from summer4fun, let's do lunch is from the shark pudgie stamp set, tacos is spelled out using alpha dies from the foxes2stamp die set...

AND the tacos were made using the watermelon (looks like pizza, too) die from the icecreamtruck2stamp set....  mmm... don't they look delicious?  ;) 

fold a piece of yellowish cardstock in half, then place die over (washie tape town) the fold and run through your big shot machine... taco shell!  that easy!

then using the same die, I cut out a green piece, then cut waves around the top and cut the triangle part off so it could fit nicely into my taco shell. 

I might need to make tacos today!  lol! 

COFFEE TRUCK......

I'm excited to share this new stamp club set for December. It's Icecreamtruck2stamp.

It's soooo cute!  There's a coffee option, so you know I'm in line at the Coffee truck! 

I used the sizzix/stephanie barnard scallop w/thanks sentiment card die set for this card, creating my own background paper using the stamps from the set.

Die hard club members get the stamp and die set mailed to them on the 1st of the month.  If you're not a member, you have to wait for the matching dies until the 20th of the month.

unBEARably cute!

Did you see this month's pudgie that was released at The Stamps of Life?

Bearpudgie27 is sooooooooooo CUTE! 

Look at the sweet bear face.  I think he needed to be paired up with some honey and cute honey bees:  hive4bees and bee4me. Also used stitched rectangle die and dotted oval die.....

 Sending bear hugs to you with this exclusive flip it card from The Stamps of Life.  You definitely need this cute bear pudgie set. 

wow!

The Stamps of Life has just released an envelope liner die set!  How cool is that!?  Now you can coordinate your envelopes with your cards to really wow your recipients! 

It's a set of 4:  three patterns and the main liner die.  Here I used the circle dies with the liner as well as stamping on it before placing it inside the envelope.  Now it goes perfectly with the my coffee theme card using the coffee4two stamp set.

I also used the stamp sets highlighters4planners and stamp2build for the addresses.......

Pretty cool, huh?  You need this, you really do!

Happy card making (and envelope lining) :)

Novemeber stamp club set you're going to llama...

...I mean LOVE!  Llama2stamp is this month's stamp club and diehard club set, and it's adorable!

Here are two cards I created using the set:

Here I used the cute llama with a little added felt, too. This is on the Sizzix circle stand up card die set.

 This card I created using two Llamas peeking over a wall over coffee paper... (yay collection at TSOL). Don't be a drama llama.... the saying inside is using the stamp that says "when all else fails, hug a llama", but I masked out the hug a llama part and used stamps from the Coffee statement set from TSOL...   with a gift card included, so there's no prob llama doing just that. :) 

Super fun, trendy set that you must have for your collection if you're not already a member at The Stamps of Life.
