The Coffee Loving Cardmakers + Studio Katia Collaboration Hop!



We're so excited to be collaborating with Super Sponsor, Studio Katia.  We're celebrating International Tea Day hop style!  You should have arrived here from the Coffee Loving Cardmaker's blog.  If not, you'll want to start at the beginning of the festivities which is the Studio Katia blog!

Here's how I was inspired:


For my first project I created a shaker card:


I created a custom blend shaker mix with the Studio Katia Holiday Cheer Confetti + Silver Polka Fusion.  Isn't it fun?!  The sentiment is from their Sweet Latte stamp set.

My other design uses images from the Sweet Latte set:


I colored them with the same copics to coordinate them.  That red wood grain pattern paper?  Total mystery, I found it while cleaning up, all by itself.  Did you spot it in my other design too?  The sentiment is from the Birthday Greetings stamp set.

That's if ro me, next up is Lori Turner!  Remember to hop and leave comments along the way for a chance to win One $50 Studio Katia gift card.  Commenting to be open through December 22nd with the winner posted on the Coffee Loving Cardmaker's blog on Sunday, December 23rd at 6 am pacific.

How cool is the Tea Bag Shaker card??!! I never would have thought of that but it is so perfect. The red wood grain pattern paper was an awesome find, I was already wondering where to get it when you answered the question lol. Thanks for sharing both cards and for the great inspiration.

Boy I would have never thought to make a tea bag very clever & cute! Both cards are! Thanks so much for sharing 😊
Gorgeous cards, love your teabag-shaker card. I am always looking for tea-lover ideas. The second card suprised me totally, I would never have dare to use such a dark colour as you did but I think it's fantastic with the bright colours you used to colour your image and the backgroud. Thank you so much for sharing this great cards Amy.
