Guest Designer : Thanh Vo

Hi! Thanh here of Make it Sweet and Neat and I'm so happy to be creating with Evelin's images. I live up in Vancouver, Canada and fortunately, I am enjoying the sun and cherry blossoms that are starting to bloom right now. On the west coast, the weather is really mild and so spring has definitely sprung around these parts. The weather may have been my inspiration in creating with these images. I had the idea of incorporating pinks and florals with Evelin's images.

I used Love You More and Coffee + Me for this card

And for this sweet card, I used Coffee + Me and Always a Good Idea

Hope you enjoyed Thanh's cards today. I know I did. And if you like the digital images too, you can get them here. 

Guest Designer : Amy Tsuruta

I love Amy's style... it's clean, it's simple and it's eye-catching. I've known her since 2008 when we first connected on the blogosphere and I am glad to have met her in person last year during CHA. She is just the sweetest friend one can ask for :)

And seeing how she is a coffee lover like myself, I had to ask if she would create some cards or projects with my digital stamps and boy, do I love what she came up with :D

Hi, it's Amy! I live in Washington State. I'm the proud mother of two lovely kids and am engaged to ''thee most spectacular guy'' who supports my crafting obsession. I work part-time for a start up biotech company in Seattle, have been blogging since 2007. I absolutely love being part of this crafting community!!

Coffee + Me

Always a Good Idea

Don't you think they are fantastic? I love the soft, pastel colors on these projects so much. 

I have another post scheduled in the afternoon and it has tips on copic coloring from our Guest Designer, Annette. Be sure to check back in the afternoon :)

Happy Monday! This is my second post for the day and I would like to introduce my guest designer, Annette Allen who designed a really beautiful card for us today :)

I have been crafting since 1997 and I do not just make cards but also enjoy sewing, scrapbooking and various other crafts. I think if it involves glue and getting messy, you could say that I love it.

Coffee Blog Hop Day 2

It's Day 2 of the Coffee Lover's Spring Blog Hop. Have you checked out the hop and the cool sponsors that are giving away prizes at the end of the hop?? psssttt : I'm giving away some coffee themed digitals from my shop

Today, I am sharing this card :) Bright and cheery for a Saturday morning, ya?

I used Always a Good Idea, Coffee Anytime and Coffee + Me for this card

I created some faux stitching and added some hearts with a puncher to create balance for the coffee mugs at the bottom left of the card :) The coffee mugs are popped up with foam tape to create dimension. If you noticed, I also added white dots on the mugs using Uniball Signo white gel pen. I love how the white dots has a little texture once they dry.

I am also giving away my calligraphed "Enjoy Life" digital image with every purchase of $9 or more from my store. This weekend only! This image will be emailed to those with qualifying orders within 24 hours of your checkout from my store.

Hope to see your cards linked up and do check out my store for the digital images :)

Coffee Lovers Cardmakers : Spring Blog Hop

Hi, I know I haven't been blogging much or consistently for quite a while now but I promise I have never left the crafty world :) I am still around and very active on Instagram (where I post almost daily) and my Facebook page. I am back today because I am participating in the Spring Coffee Lovers Bloghop and.... I am one of the sponsors!

One of the reasons why I am so quiet lately is because I have been busy illustrating, watercoloring and doing all sorts of crafty things. Blogging was beginning to feel like a 'job' and so I decided to stop for a while. More on that in another post. For now, I want to share a couple of coffee-themed cards that I made using digitals that I designed (yeay! doing the happy dance!) and you can get them here in my store. 

I used Hug in a Mug and Coffee Love in this card

One of my favorites (if the designer can have a favorite) Coffee + Me

Besides coffee, I do love mocha too.. but that's probably because there's still coffee in it? haha.. Using  Coffee Anytime and Hug in a Mug for this card

I really do hope that you like the digital stamps that I created. Since they are digital images, they are just a click away for you to receive and create with. I really hope to see them linked up in some of your cards/projects during this hop :)

Have a fun hop!
