Hello and welcome to the Fall/Winter Coffee Lover's Blog Hop...yay!!! I LOVE this hop. It is such a fantastic way to be inspired by all of the amazing projects everyone creates for this theme. I created this penguin-themed card to share with you today. I used the super cute Lovely Latte die set from Lawn Fawn.

I started by die-cutting all of the layers I would use to create the card. I used the lovely new Backdrop Stitched Snowflake die to create the base panel of the card, the scarf and ear muff covers. I then added a bit of color to the base panel using Merman and Peacock Lawn Fawn inks. Next, I used the Stitched Mug Frame, the Outside in Stitched Mug, to create the larger penguin mug. For the whipped cream on the larger mug I used the mane die from the Tiny Gift Box Unicorn & Horse Add-on. To create the whipped cream border on the smaller penguin mug, I used the Slimline Stitched Hillside Border die set, to create the penguin frame, the flippers, the beak for the larger mug I used the dies from the Spring Critter Huggers die set.For the smaller mug, I used the dies from the Tiny Gift Box Peacock & Turkey Add-on die set. The accessories for the larger mug are from the Woodland Critter Huggers Winter Add-on die set. The snowflakes are from the Magic Iris Snowglobe Add-on.

For the sentiment, I used the  Magic Holiday Messages stamp set along with the circle from the Shutter Card Snow Globe Add-on. I hope you enjoy the card I created to share with you today. Thank you very much for taking the time to stop by. I hope you each have a wonderful and blessed day.

Love Ya Snow Much with Lawn Fawn...

 

Hello and happy Wednesday everyone!! Mayra here with you today. I have a 'cool' themed card to share with you, lol. I used the super awesome, two of my favorites, and must have dies the Stitched Mug Frame and Outside In Stitched Mug. I am having so much fun creating with these dies. I was inspired by the advent calendar I created for this year for my snowman mug and card. 

I used several dies from Lawn Fawn to create the snowman and the snowman themed mug.  I began by die-cutting the pieces I would be using to create the snowman mug. I used the  Outside In Stitched Mug and Stitched Mug Frame, along with the Tiny Gift Box Bunny Add-On (for the carrot nose, and cheeks), the smile is from the eyes in the Woodland Critter Huggers die set. The mitten and hat are from the Woodland Critter Huggers Winter Add-On, and for the little snowman, the hat is from the Tiny Gift Box Holiday Hats Add-On. To create the small snowman I used the die-cut circle from the Christmas hat add-on. 

This snowman is enjoying his cup of hot chocolate and of course, there are lots of mini sprinkles.

To create the hot chocolate look, I used the Outside In Stitched Mug to die cut a layer from brown glitter cardstock. I then used the Slimline Stitched Hillside Border to create the wavy edge. I also did this for the chocolate-dipped marshmallows. For the sprinkles, I used the small circles from the snowy backdrop scene from the Snow Globe Scenes Shaker Add-On die set. I also used the small cutouts from the ball of yarn from the Tiny Gift Box Cat Add-On. The snowflake on the mitten is from one of the snowflakes in the Magic Iris Snow Globe Add-On. The chocolate-dipped candy canes are from the Build A House Gingerbread Add-On. 

To create the snowman, I used the larger and medium-sized balloons from the Outside In Stitched Balloon Stackables. I then added a bit of color to the white areas using Tumbled Glass, and Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide inks. To finish my card, I added the sentiment from the Snow Much Fun stamp set. 

I hope you enjoy the card I created to share with you today. Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by. I pray you each have a wonderful and blessed day. Please feel welcome to visit me on my blog, or Pinterest, or on Instagram.

Sending Big Hugs with Lawn Fawn...

Hello and happy Wednesday everyone. Mayra here with you today. I am sharing this sweet set of cards with you. I used the lovely new Simple Stripes Diagonal die set, along with the Giant Sending Big Hugs die. 

I began by using the largest die from the Basic Rectangles die set to die-cut the base panel for my cards. Next, I used the Simple Stripes Diagonal die set to die cut the stripes using kraft-colored card stock. I then die cut the phrase 'sending big hugs' using the Giant Sending Big Hugs die from yellow-colored cardstock. You can use the largest and medium-sized rectangles from the  Basic Rectangles die set to create a framed border. Then, I die-cut the layers for the deer using the Tiny Gift Box Deer Add-on, Woodland Critter Huggers, and the Woodland Critter Huggers Winter Add-on.

The panel for the second card was made using the Quilted Backdrop die. I then added color to the die-cut layers using Lawn Fawn and Distress Inks. For the yellow area, I used Sunflower, No.2 Pencil, Wild Honey, and Rusty Hinge. For the brown areas, I used Gathered Twigs, Brushed Corduroy, Ground Espresso, and Antique Linen.  I also added a couple of black splatters using Black Soot Distress Ink.

Next, I stamped the sentiment onto the banners from the Fancy Wavy Banners die set using black ink. 

I hope you enjoy the card I created to share with you today. Thank you very much for taking the time to stop by. I hope you each have a wonderful and blessed day. Please feel welcome to visit me on my blog, IG or Pinterest.

Lawn Fawn "Hedgy" Cute Bookmarks...

 

Hello and happy Wednesday everyone!! Mayra here with you today, and I have a set of bookmarks to share with you. I used the absolutely adorable Tiny Gift Box Hedgehog Add- On.  I love to read and encourage my sons to also develop a love of reading as well. With that in mind, I thought bookmarks would be perfect to make with the little hedgehog. 

I began by die cutting the pieces for the hedgehogs and the little accessories. The little hat is from the Tiny Gift Box Holiday Hats Add- On, the hearts are from the Stitched Mug Frame, the small cup of hot chocolate is from the Woodland Critter Huggers Winter Add-On, and the stack of books from the Den Sweet Den stamp set. 

To create the bookmarks, I used the large stitched rectangle from the Flippin' Awesome Add-On, and the smaller stitched rectangle from the Shutter Card Die set. I layered the smaller rectangle over the larger one after stamping the sentiments onto each one. I thought these sentiments were great for the bookmarks. The "I can't take my eyes off of you" is from the Keep On Swimming set, the "find happinness in the little things", and "I'm so happy I found you" are from the Hey Lady stamp set.  

To finish my bookmarks, I used the Eye See You Shape Sprinkles by Doodlebug Design to add little eyes to these cute hedgehogs. I hope you enjoy these bookmarks and feel inspired to create. 

Thank you very much for taking the time to stop. I hope you each have a wonderful and blessed day. Please feel welcome to visit me on my blog, on Instagram, or on Pinterest.

Hello everyone!!! Happy Wednesday!! I am so excited to share this card inspired by the Coffee Lover's Blog Hop. I used my favorite dies for this theme. I used the Stitched Mug Frame and the Outside in Stitched Mug from Lawn Fawn. 

I began by die-cutting the layers for this fall-inspired mug.

The tag is from the Tiny Tags die set, the 'for you' phrase is from the Gift Card Heart Envelope die set, the 'hello' is from the Shutter Card die set.

I then stamped the word 'fall' onto the mug using the Jump For Joy stamp set. The 'so thankful' is from that set as well.

Special Delivery with Lawn Fawn...

Hello everyone!! Happy Wednesday. Mayra here with you today. I have this fun birthday card to share with you. I used the adorable Spring Critter Huggers and Tiny Gift Box Chick and Duck Add-On die from Lawn Fawn. 

I started my card by using the Outside In Stitched Balloons die to create the background. I used the smallest and middle balloons from the set to create a stitched balloon effect. Next, I added color to the panel using Lawn Fawn Inks in Apricot, Peach Fuzz, and Peachy Keen. I then used the Cloudy Stencil to add a soft clouds look. I also used the small balloon to create small duck themed balloons. I then die cut the scalloped panel using the largest rectangle from the Fancy Scalloped Rectangle Stackables set. I used Mustard Seed Distress Oxide Ink and Lawn Fawn Ink in Sunflower to add the yellow color all around the edges of the scalloped rectangle and to the edges of the yellow areas for the duckies. 

I then used the cute envelope die from the Gift Card Heart Envelope die set to create the little envelope containing the special delivery. The sentiment is from the new Special Delivery and Wavy Sayings stamp sets. The banners are from the Simple Wavy Banners die set. 

I hope you enjoy this card I created to share with you. Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by. I pray you each have a wonderful and blessed day. Please feel welcome to visit me at my blog, Instagram, or Pinterest.

Sweet Gift Tags with Lawn Fawn...

  

Hello everyone, happy Wednesday!! Mayra here with you today. I have a fun set of tags to share with you. Doodlebugs is having a fantastic sale going on through the 13th of November 2020 in honor of being one of the wonderful sponsors for the 2020 Fall | Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop. You have a couple more days to use the discount. There is also a great section on the online store for all coffee lovers. You can check out that section here. 

For my tags, I used the awesome Stitched Mug Frame,  Outside In Stitched Mug, the beautiful Lawn Fawn Stitched Poinsettias dies, Shutter Card Add-On (the little hearts for the smaller mugs),  Shadow Box Fireplace Add-On (the little berries and leaves for the smaller mugs), Scalloped Circle Gift Tag (smaller tag for the sentiment), Build A House Gingerbread Add-On (candy canes). To create the dripping whipped cream for each of the mugs (both the larger and smaller ones) I used the Slimline Stitched Hillside Borders. I used one of the wavier dies. I also used the Woodland Critter Huggers Winter Add-On to create a coordinating mini mug to decorate the spoon with. 

After die cutting all of the pieces I would be using, I created each individual tag. I did turn them into shaker tags by adding foam adhesive and acetate. I used a variety of sequins. This is a lovely one to use the Sparkling Clear Jewels from Pretty Pink Posh. To create the tag area for the mugs I used the Tiny Tags die set.  I then heat embossed the sentiment onto the small tags using the sentiment from the Tiny Tag Sayings stamp set. 

For the sprinkles on one of the mugs, I used the cut-out pieces from the little ball of yarn from Tiny Gift Box Cat Add-On.  

I really loved creating these Christmas tags with a coffee/hot cocoa theme. I hope you enjoy them and feel inspired to create. Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by. I pray you each have a wonderful and blessed day. Please feel welcome to visit me at my blog, or Instagram, or on Pinterest.
