Hello hello! I have a card to link up for Wood block wednesday- March!


This month, I used the other two stamps that came as a little set from Michael's; Recollection. You can find them in the check out line for your temptation. Haha. With a coupon it was like $1 and something cents. I'm too lazy to go back and look to see what I told you last month. Lol...  for 4 adorable stamps and I like the look of the round blocks: fun deal. 😁 

Here's my card:



I have these cute little shaker pieces of bones I bought from Trinity Stamps, so I thought I'd make a little shaker. 

Stitched scalloped border die is Kat Scrappiness. 

Reverse scallop circle die is Pink and Main.

Word die, TSOL.

Distress Oxide inks used: Pistachio, chipped sapphire, and tumbled glass

Also, in honor of the current Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers blog hop that's going on, most coffee theme items in the shop are 20-40% off 🎉☕️♥️😊

The card I'm sharing today uses the two new HOT FOIL plates: coffee words and coffee mix. 😍 I inksmooshed a bkg on Strathmore mixed media paper (let dry), then foiled over it.

I used the sentiment and butterfly from the new stamp/die sets, Caffeinated. 

I created my own little coffee plant sprigs using dies from the Oh happy day frame die set 

I used the coffee bean rainbow portion of the Coffee Graphic stencil, too.

Helloooo! Happy March! I have a Caffeinated Christmas card to link up over at the Caffeinated Christmas card challenge blog!

I tried a little watercolored scene which needs improvement, but for the most part I'm happy with it. Plus, the moose is soooo darn cute it doesn't even matter. Haha. I just got that stamp set from Colorado Stamp Company. 

My scene was created using stamps from Sweet n Sassy Stamps and Visual Image Stamps.


Coffee holding moose + green trees and green pj's 😁

DTCB 160 +

Hello!! I am here to share and link up a card for the Double Trouble Challenge blog #160 challenge and the Creative Creases challenge #76 - they are new to me, but it's their anniversary! 🥳



Here's my card I created:

I created a step up card as my fun fold (Thing 1 and 2 requirements) and used one of my favorite Art Impressions stamp sets- frogs! Frogs hop and leap, so that meets the Thing 3 requirement. 

Have a hoppy day!
