Coffee Loving Cardmakers~ National Iced Tea Day 2021

 

Hey there!! Welcome to Robyn's Nest!! 

Happy National Iced Tea Day!!

 

I hope you are having a good day so far! 

 

The design team over at Coffee Loving Cardmakers are hopping with our teamie Dana today to celebrate!!

**Side Note**

If you come to my house, you will always be asked if you want some sweet tea.

 I make gallons of this liquid gold every week. 

We live in the south and you'd probably find it very hard to find a fridge without a gallon or two!! 

(Channeling my inner Paula Dean accent...Ya'll" )

 

Here's how I was inspired!! 

 

For my card, I used Unity Stamp Company, who are Super Sponsors of our fun Blog Hops!
I used a stamp from one of their Kit of the Month's _ have you ever seen the size of those KOM's?

 What an great value!! 

Look how BIG they are, too..the stamp I used is at the bottom, left

I stamped this image onto Papertrey Ink white card stock
Using a few Copic markers, I colored it up!

I colored the lemons with Y-00 & Y-15

and used the following for the sweet tea- E-00 & E02

I used this amazing frame fro Impression Obsession to cut out some textured vellum from Stampin Up. 

Then choosing some Design Series Paper from my stash, I simply cut to fit.
The sentiment I used is my absolute favorite Southern Sayings from Paper Sweeties called 

Hey Ya'll from Paper Sweeties <<link

Lastly, I used some of my gorgeous sheer ribbon from Close to My Heart, I tied a pretty bow

I love how it turned out!!

Did you arrive here from Erin??

Friends of Unity Blog Hop June 2021~ Masculine

 

 

Hey there!! Welcome to Robyn's Nest!!!

Today the team is hopping with a new theme~ 

Masculine

A lot of us struggle with masculine cards.
I hope you find some inspiration this month!! 

To start this month off I have chosen this motorcycle from June 2018 Kit of the month

 

For this card I only did embossing.
No coloring

I embossed the motorcycle in gold and the sentiment in black
I used my Tim Holtz paper shredding tool on the edges and some SU DSP
A bit of black paint splatters (looks like an oil spill) 😀

 

Using PTI kraft paper, and Versamark black ink and more black embossing powder, I again, did not have to color this one

 Like last month, I love using black on kraft for a clean, simple look 

 

I used a few stamp sets here...

The sentiment "You and Me" is from the January 2020 

The camper and sunshine are from (link below)

Adventure on the Bright Side

I used Kat Scrappiness mini slimline embossed edge for the main layer
Here's a link to KS and all her amazing Mini Slimline products

Kat Scrappiness

I plucked the branch out of a different KOTM and will post when I find THAT kit LOL 

The tire swing is from Rubbernecker
~I'm giving this last card to my husband
We will celebrate 37 years of marriage, June 17th
