Coffee Collage Card ft. STAMPlorations


Hi there! Today I'm sharing the last card I guest designed for STAMPloration's Theme & Sketch challenge. I decided to go with both the theme (Stamps & Collage) and the sketch (shown below) for my card, but feel free to use only one for your creation! 



For today's card I used one of STAMPloration's new coffee stamps: Coffee for All Seasons. It's one of my latest favorite! Here I used some masking and repetitive stamping technique to create this collage effect, then colored all of the images with my Copic markers. I think I've used almost all of the colors from my 72A set. It's a little crazy, isn't it?! But I love how it turned out. The vibrant and colorful images definitely give me a festive, holiday feel. 
By the way, I didn't know this when I first purchased the 72A set, but apparently they don't include good color blending groups in their sets. And I suspect this might be why I struggled with using my Copic makers in the first few months I bought them. So if you are thinking about getting into Copic coloring, you might want to consider getting individual markers first. 
That is all from me today, thanks for stopping by, and I hope to see you link up at our December challenge!

Winter Coffee Lovers Bloghop ft. STAMPlorations


Hello! Today I'm sharing a card I made for the Winter Coffee Lovers Bloghop. This card features Coffee for All Seasons, which is one of the new coffee stamp sets from STAMPlorations. It's also my favorite out of the entire release! Check out all of the coffee/tea stamps we have here!


I decided to keep this card rather simple by keeping the focus on the winter image. I colored it with the Copic Markers listed below: 
Cup: C1, C3, C5 (Cool Gray)
Coffee: YR24 Pale Sepia, E33 Sand
Background: E29 Burnt Umber, E09 Burnt Sienna, R37 Carmine
I think all fours images are so lovely and the coloring process is really therapeutic. I'm thinking about stamping and coloring them on some gift card holders (for Starbucks gift cards) and giving them as Christmas gifts. Anyways, I hope you have enjoyed looking at my creation, and thanks so much for stopping by!
