Latina Crafter Blog Hop!

Click HERE for the Essentials by Ellen Holiday 2015 Release!

Hello Hello!

I'm thrilled to be hopping with the girls at Latina Crafter!   You should have arrived here from the Latina Crafter Blog!   Remember to start there, because that is where the fun begins!   I met Diana of the Latina Crafter through the Coffee Lovers Blog Hops and if you're a coffee lover, you're going to LOVE this hop!

Remember to leave comments as you hop along!  You'll have through August 7th to comment and then the winner will be posted on the Latina Crafter Blog on August 10th.

Let's get started, shall we?!  First up is a card I designed with the Coffee is best with a Friend:

cardstock:  stampin' up gumball green, dcwv pebbled stack  stamps:  latina crafter coffee is best with a friend  ink:  ranger archival black  other:  spellbinders circles

I tend to always gravitate to green with coffee cards, how about you?  Isn't that sentiment fun?!  Love the mixed font!

My card was inspired by CAS(E) this Sketch:

Next up is a 4.25 inch square card with OCD:

cardstock:  stampin' up basic black, strathmore watercolor  stamps:  latina crafter ocd  ink:  ranger archival black, fresh ink refill/cocoa  other:  a jillian vance design/chalkboard backdrop die, sizzix tim holtz embossing folder

This stamp totally cracked me up...Obsessive Coffee Disorder....love that!  I teamed it up with a fun coffee embossing folder by Sizzix/Tim Holtz.  The coffee stain?  I actually just pooled some Fresh Ink Cocoa refill and then dipped the bottom of the bottle and make a ring:)

One cup at a time:

cardstock:  papertrey ink vellum  paper:  basic grey kioshi  stamps:  latina crafter/one cup at a time  ink:  ranger archival black  other:  spellbinders ovals, freckled fawn metal bloom

I love this sentiment and wanted it to be the star of the show!  Since the floral pattern was pretty busy, I softened it up by adding a layer of vellum.  The bloom is a fun embellishment made of metal.

Whew, we're onto my last card for today's hop!

cardstock:  strathmore watercolor, bazzill marshmallow  stamps:  latina crafter i'm no quitter  ink:  ranger archival black  other:  kuretake gansai tambi, peerless watercolors

I'm no Quitter....Gotta love a To Go cup!  I'm such a fan of watercoloring!  The background was done with Kuretake Gansai Tambi while the To Go cup was colored with Peerless watercolors.

That's it for me!  Thanks so much for stoppin' by, your next stop is my bloggie friend:  Giovana Smith!
