Coffee Anyone?

There ARE stamps and dies for coffee, not just latte's! This sample uses the detailed dies to make the darling coffee pot, as well as a stamped up of coffee (with coffee stamped inside), along with some plaid DSP!  I just love this entire card!


Measurements:  

  • Calypso Coral: 1/2 sheet
  • Lemon Lolly: 3" x 4 1/4"
  • Early Espresso:3 7/8" x 5 1/8". scraps
  • Pecan Pie: scrap
  • Basic Black: scraps
  • Basic White: scraps
  • A Little Latte DSP (N) (OE): 3 5/8" x 4 7/8" (plaid)
To Make This Card:

  • Layer Early Espresso and plaid DSP to folded Calypso Coral card. 
  • Die cut 2 5/8" x 3 7/8" rectangle in Lemon Lolly from Deckled Rectangles. Set aside.
  • Die cut "coffee pot" from Early Espresso, "coffee" from Pecan PIe, and "handle" and "lid" from Basic Black.
  • Stamp "coffee mug" in Memento Black onto scrap of white.  Color with Calypso Coral Blends. Cut out with corresponding die.  Stamp "coffee" inside cup with Pecan Pie ink. Set aside.
  • Die cut "coffee beans" from DSP with corresponding die.
  • Now, to put it all together!
  • I first figured out how to assemble the "coffee pot"!
  • Adhere the "coffee mug" onto Lemon Lolly layer. Determine the angle of the "coffee pot" and mark the placement of the "coffee" from the "pot" to the "mug" lightly with a pencil.
  • Stamp the "coffee pour" in Early Espresso, then add the "coffee pot". Note that the pot hangs off the Lemon Lolly layer. Also, add sentiment, if desired.
  • Before adding this layer, add a strip of Natural Polka Dot trim, diagonally across card base. 
  • Now, add the Lemon Lolly layer to the card front with Dimensionals.
  • Finish with scattered Swirl Dots and a little Wink of Stella on the "coffee" in the mug!

  • Center this square to Swirl DSP. DO NOT ADHERE TO FRONT OF CARD, YET.
  • Next, take one 1/4" Pecan Pie strip and lay from corner of square, along the cut edge of the square, and off the DSP layer. 
  • Then, lay the next strip, butting the end to the previously laid strip, and laying this one also along cut edge and off the DSP.  Repeat until all 4 layers are done.
  • Next, trim off the strips so that they are even with the DSP.
  • NOW, adhere the DSP layer to the folded Pecan Pie card.
  • Die cut one "cup" from the A Latte Love DSP. Attach to center of square layers with Dimensionals.
