I Brake For Coffee, Coffee, Coffee!

It's Sunday and time again for me, Jamie Martin to share my card.  I have this really cute coffee shaker card made with stamps from MS79 Full Plate of Coffee and Sayings.  Here is how it was made;

1.  A circle was diecut in a white panel and the coffee beans were randomly stamped with VersaMark Ink and embossed with white embossing powder.
2.  Antique Linen, Tea Dye and Walnut Stain inks were sponged on the panel in the order listed.  When done, rub the coffee beans with a paper towel to remove ink and make it pop. Set aside.
3.  Stamp sentiment with Onyx Black VersaFine Ink on blue paper that is smaller than the coffee bean panel and emboss with clear.
4.  Diecut Fun Foam using a circle die one size larger than used for the coffee bean panel and glue so the opening is over the sentiment.  Add sequins and beads.
5.  Glue acetate to the back side of the coffee bean panel and glue the panel onto the Fun Foam.  Glue to a brown card.
6.  Stamp the coffee cup on watercolor paper with Onyx Black Ink, emboss with clear and color with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens.  Cut out and glue to the side of the shaker opening.
7.  Add a few Black Dot Sparklers and your done!

I hope I have inspired you to Stamp This!

I Brake For Poppies!

Hello and happy Saturday!

Today I'm sharing a birthday card that my friend requested for her mom.

She just asked for something pretty and I instantly thought of the I Brake For Stamps SINGLE POPPY.

I used Copic markers to color it and an Anna Griffin embossing folder called...what else...Poppy.

I Brake for Mother's Day!

Hello and happy Saturday!

Today I'm sharing my Mother-in-Law's Mother's Day card with you.

I've used Floral Silhouette for the focal point on my card. 

The verse is from Every Day Phrases

I used Happy Mother's Day on the inside of her card.

I think this script is so pretty.  No one writes in cursive anymore and it's such a pretty form of writing!

I Brake For Sympathy

Hello and Happy Saturday!

Today I'm sharing a sympathy card with you.

I recently got these beautiful new flowers from I Brake For Stamps and couldn't wait to put them to use.

The stamp is called LARGE VIOLET STEMS.

The verse is from EVERY DAY PHRASES.

Hello and Happy Saturday!

Renee here and today I'm sharing a sympathy card with you. 

My friend who is one of my most loyal customers needed a sympathy card last week and this is what I made for her.  I used two images and one verse from I Brake For Stamps on my card.

The flowers are called LARGE VIOLET STEM and BOTANICAL and the verse is from the sheet EVERY DAY PHRASES.

Inside I used the sympathy verse MEMORIES COMFORT YOU

and the stamp called FOXGLOVE and BIRD SILOUETTE .

I stamped all of the flowers twice so that I could pop them up and give them dimension.

I Brake For the North Pole!

Hello and a good Saturday to you all!

As much as I'm a "one holiday at time" kind of girl I do realize that when you MAKE your own Christmas cards you have to pretty much work on them all year long! Today I'm sharing a wonderfully sweet Rick St. Dennis digital image found at I Brake For Stamps.

 

 

 

The image I chose is called North Pole Welcome.  I'm sure by now most everyone is familiar with digi stamps but in case you're not here's a little description.  When you purchase the image it will be e-mailed to you.  You can then print it out in any size or color you want!  That's really cool because sometimes I want a smaller or large image depending on the layout of my card.  This is a definite advantage over traditional rubber stamps.  (Though I'm still TOTALLY hooked on rubber!)

 

The verse is from the sheet called Every Day Phrases.

I Brake For Pretty Pink Flowers!

Hello everyone!

Doesn't everyone love flowers? 

This beautiful pair of blossoms is from I Brake For Stamps and it's called FLOWERS.

I love that with all the flowers in the world they literally come in every color imaginable.  You can choose any color you're in the mood for.  Today, I was in the mood for pink.  I used my Spellbinders Rose Creations dies and a brad to recreate a 3-D flower to match the stamped ones.  The embossing on the leaves was done with a Cuttlebug folder as were the two panels.
This card would be perfect for almost any occasion!
