For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC775), we’re headed to the Eyelet Outlet. They have a lot of fun stuff & I chose THIS for my inspiration. Love all the coffee go cups!

I adore these new coffee cats from Rubbernecker. There’s also a matching die, but I didn’t use it for this. So cute! And the new background images are right up my alley because I love making my own backgrounds. For this card, I used the yellow, orange & cinnamon Color Fuse inks to sponge the gradient color down a white panel. Since it had so much ink on it, I used a heat gun to help dry it before putting it in my Misti & stamping the bg w/ the acorn Versaclair. The cute little coffee cat was also stamped w/ the acorn ink & I water colored it & added a ground line so it wouldn’t look like he was floating.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC732), we’re headed to LTD Commodities & THIS was my inspiration. 

For my version, I die cut cocoa mug & go cup out of some coordinating papers then did a little paper piecing on them. The greeting was stamped on some cement colored paper, everything was attached & some holly sprigs added.

A big congrats to Julee, the newest Featured Stamper  (FS646) on Splitcoast! She has a gorgeous gallery & I picked several I wanted to case, but kept coming back to THIS card. I kept the coffee theme & layout, but used different images, different dies & made my own background paper.

For my card, I stamped the bg text a bunch of times w/ the truffle ink onto cream c/s, masking the edge so they wouldn’t run over each other, then stamped the splats & Coffee words & inked the edges. The 2 coffee go cups were sponged in the two different colors & die cut branches were added. The greeting is 2 put together on a die cut circle w/ the edges sponges. I forgot about the ribbon until after I had already glued the panel to the card, so I just frayed the left edge instead of trying to tuck it under.

Here’s a look at the inside.
