Coffee Loving Cardmakers blog 

and at 

Studio Katia  

OK, so let's chat...

 A few of our design team members are using

 A Cup Of Thanks

  

I loved coloring the beautiful flowers on this stamp

 

Using two different pieces of cardstock, and changing up the main flower color, gave me exactly what I wanted.

The die set, comes with two word dies, too. 

Thanks, and Tea

Here's a link to  A Cup Of Thanks, Dies

I love that this die cuts the space in the handle.
It was VERY easy to line the die up, before cutting.
Plenty of room around the image too! I LOVE that!!

 

Studio Katia sells the most 

beautiful embellishments, too! 

I am kind of a sequins snob, 

and their sequins and jeweled crystals are so

 beautiful that I want them all!

 I used Gold sparkle crystals, and Sunny Topaz ..below is a link

  Jeweled Crystals

and 

Sequins Mixes 

 

Both of my cards we very easy to make, and will be mailed out Monday!

That's it for me  :)

CONGRATULATIONS LADIES!!!

My card this month is by...yep, Unity Stamp Co!
***SHOCKER***

It seems like I am always reaching for their stamps. Probably because they are always releasing new ones, and I am a member of their Kit of the Month..
This stamp set is not new though. But, it's seasonal, so it's like "new to me" each year

Joy To Go << Link 

I love it! Keeping this card simple, all I did was stamp the image and sentiment 

with Iridescent Ice holographic embossing powder from Stampin' UP!

Any brand will give you the same effect 

I'm pretty bummed that my snowflakes look like dirty smudges, though.. :( 

well, that's it for me this time!!

I want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas!! 

Inky Hugs, Robyn

My teamie Kathy posted all her cards from the hop, and I thought I'd do the same! 

Thanks for looking. I posted these to Instagram

Even though I appreciate each and every one of you from the bottom of my heart

Rebecca Yahrling &

 so I'm also going to send you a "little something"

 not much, but a thanks for your support!!!Please message me your addresses, ok
