With Sympathy

Hello! Today I am sharing a sympathy card I made for a friend. 

This card uses some new paper I got from Lil Inkers -

 Dyed Ombre Chevron paper. So pretty! 

I used the Border Builders Die set from Lil Inkers for the top of card. I cut the cloud border out three times from the ombre paper, and layered them on the top of the card.

I had some Stamping' Up paper that matched perfectly!

Then word stamp is from PrintWorks. 

I also used the stitched mats dies from Lil' Inkers.

 I added three rhinestones to the left edge of the card.

Thanks for visiting today!

Stop by again!

Ode to Caribou Coffee - featuring Lil Inker Designs

Hello there! I am back with a cute card I made with my newest die set from Lil Inker Designs! They updated their Coffee Cozy Die set and I just had to add it to my collection! 

I love my Caribou Coffee!

Here is my card:

I am all about anything that has stitching on it! When I saw Lil Inkers updated this set with stitching on the cozy, score lines on the lid (that adds such dimension!) and also the adorable steam,

I had to have this set! 

I took a real Caribou coffee cozy and used the die cut to cut out the Caribou logo. The large heart is a Memory Box die, the small hearts and the stitched mats are Lil Inkers. 

Paper is from Stampin' up.

Words are from Lil Inker Designs Coffee talk stamp set.

Life is short - stay awake for it!

Thank for visiting today!

See you next time!

One Sip At A Time

Hello! Thanks for stopping by today! I am taking advantage of a rainy yucky day to get some stamping done! The card I am showing today, I made for a friend who recently broke her wrist in a fall! She is going to be off work for a couple of weeks, so I thought I would try and cheer her up with a card!
I found a nice sketch on the Taylored Expressions blog and got started!

The papers are from Basic Grey's Sweet Threads line. I used the coffee cozy stamp and die set from Lil' Inkers Designs.

The border punch is from stampin' up.

Mmmmm makes me think I should make a trip to Caribou coffee!

Thanks for dropping by today! Hope to see you back here soon!
