Coffee Loving Cardmakers Ellen Hutson~ National Coffee Day 2021

 

Hey there, what's brewin'?

Happy National Coffee Day

We have been celebrating National Coffee WEEK since September 22nd, featuring one Super Sponsor per day

Today, the last day, we have Sponsor

Ellen Hutson

Ellen is having TWO giveaways 

This sweet Bear Cozy 

  

How cute is this die set?? So many possibilities!!! 

 

When I cut out my first piece, I saw it could be a frog...
 What do you think??
I have 2 sisters that are "into" frogs...they have them scattered all over their home. that's probably why those bumps turned into eyes for me Ha!

 I gave her eyelashes
She looked more like a frog before I wrapped her around the cup

 

I made everything from paper with the dies provided in the kit (except the mouth)

When I got to the mouth, I wasn't all that happy with it...I liked the boy frogs mouth better

but, I know my sister will love it.

It's so fast, and easy enough to make them, that I am sending her a few extra to give away, too

Below is the other (darker) frog

CONGRATULATIONS

Oh my goodness this is fabulous! I love the slimline design and the die giving you those three squares to work in. Those three images in the cutouts are perfect!!! 

Please email me at robyn6420@aol.com with your adderss!! 

 

 

 

I started out by using this new Uniquely Unity set, Season Of Inspiration

2 gorgeous pumpkins and 2 sentiments in this kit~ perfect for Fall/September cards

Super easy card!
I stamped on PTI kraft card stock with white ink, then heat embossed with white as well

I used an older Sizzix die to cut the image out 

I added it to the sage mat then tied some matching jute into a bow
After mounting it to my card base, I used Gina Marie enamel dots to finish it off
 

 

I had some extra time and made a second card for the hop 

 

This card is just a combination of elements I cut out or had out looking for the right color combo~

This is a mini slimline card ~
I used sage cardstock, and kraft, both from Papertrey Ink (PTI) 

I stamped the oak leaf from the August 2021 Kit of the Month onto a scrap piece of pattern paper from PTI (fussy cute it out)... and used that beautiful "give thanks" from the Uniquely Unity August 2021~ Stamped, embossed, and fussy cut)

The matching bow is also ribbon from PTI...

More of those enamel dots 😍  

I hope you've enjoyed this months hop!!
