Red Cup Warm and Cozy Wishes

Good morning! Stopping by this morning to share a quick card I managed to make over the weekend in a little quiet moment I had - it was a busy weekend as I ended up watching FIVE of my nieces from Saturday afternoon until Sunday mid-day. My poor hubby was badly outnumbered with our two daughters in the mix! Haha! Anyway - with a 1 and 2 year old in the mix, a naptime movie for the oldest ones allowed me to sneak in my craft room and put this together using the newly redesigned Coffee Cozy dies and coordinating Coffe Cozy Stamps from Lil' Inker Designs, and they are fabulous!

I wanted to make a "holiday red cup" - and I love the details on these dies! I added a die cut rectangle using Rounded Rectangle Dies, an white inked background, and some Christmas pattern paper and jute twine. And I love that little heart included in the stamp set! :)

Also linking up with the current Simon Says Monday Challenge - Winter Wonderland (a hot drink is a must if you are out in the cold, don't you think?):

Here are links to the supplies I used for this card! Thanks so much for stopping by today - have a warm and cozy day!!!

Lil' Inkers December Release - Day 3

Hello! It's time for Day 2 of the new release at Lil' Inker Designs! Such a fun set of goodies in this release - I am in love with all the variety! I have links to all the product I used today at the bottom of my post.

For today, I'm sharing some tags I made with the adorable new Dotted Tags dies - such a fun die, and I love the choice of three sizes!

Here is a look at Dotted Tags die set:

For these tags, I very simply blended some different colors of SSS ink, then stamped a Christmas sentiment from the All The Christmas You'll Ever Need Stamp Set - then added some accents with a white gel pen to help them pop a little more.

I added some ribbon at the top that I had in my stash, then tied on some ivory jute twine to finish them off.

And now the fun part! There is, of course, a chance to win some shopping money to spend on the new goodies! YAY! Laura is giving away 3 gift certificates for random comments left along the hop - so the more comments you leave, the better your chance of winning!

Lil' Inkers December Release - Day 2

I really love this new thank you die - such an easy way to share your gratitude with someone!

And here is the stamp set I used for this card - linked below:

I very simply cut it out of gold cardstock, tied on some gold thread, then mounted on some of the amazing Ombre pattern paper from Lil' Inkers, matted in a little more gold. This would even be an easy card to drop in the mail without additional postage!

Next up, a very simple and understated sympathy card - I tried to keep the colors super soft and simple:

Here is a peek at the new goodies I used on this card - all of them are also linked below:

I stamped the flowers in gray ink on watercolor paper, then did some light and messy watercoloring. Added a few ink splatters and let that dry before attaching under the new Dotted ovals as a window. The sentiment was die cut from black cardstock, then glued over the window and finished with a good heavy coat of Glossy Accents.
