Shop Your Stash: Mini Slimline Coffee-Themed Birthday Card feat. Catherine Pooler Designs

Hello friends. Here’s a quick and easy coffee-themed birthday card using older stamp sets from my stash. I love the modern graphic style of this coffee set!

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 7โ€ x 6โ€ and scored at 3-1/2″. I also cut a piece to 3-1/4 x 5-3/4″, and another piece to 1 x 5-3/4″.

For the background piece, I stamped the smaller images from the Catherine Pooler Designs Perfect Blend Stampset (discontinued) with Catherine Pooler Sand Castle Ink and then I used the direct-to-paper technique with S’mores Ink to color the strip.

I stamped the espresso maker from Catherine Pooler Designs Perfect Blend Stampset (discontinued) onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Rockin’ Red, Pebble, and Oh Boy! inks. I popped them up using Foam Tape.

I stamped the sentiment from the Catherine Pooler Designs Perfect Blend Stampset (discontinued) and Sugar Pea Designs Espresso Yourself Stampset onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with S’mores Ink and Cranberry Fizz and fussy cut it out.

I left the inside of the card blank and added a S’mores-colored espresso maker.

A Simple Valentine’s Day Card featuring Trinity Stamps

Hello friends. One last card for my Valentine’s Day card series. Sorry this one is a bit late.

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base, another piece to 3-1/2 x 5-1/4. I stamped the background using the drizzle from the A-GLAZE-ing 4×8 Stamp Set with Catherine Pooler Designs Sand Castle Ink. I also splattered some more ink with CP Sand Castle, Stampin’ Up! Real Red, and CP Cotton Candy Inks. I added some pattern paper, measuring 4 x 5-1/4″ from my stash, behind the panel.

I die cut the donuts from Stampin’ Up! Chocolate Chip 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock (retired), Stampin’ Up! Mint Macaron 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock (retired), Stampin’ Up! Poppy Parade 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock, Simon Says Stamp Cotton Candy 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock and Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ using the Tiny Donut Dipper Die Set.

I used ink to add some dimension to the donut frostings. I used CP Cotton Candy, Stampin’ Up! Real Red, Stampin’ Up! Just Jade (retired), and Stampin’ Up! Highland Heather inks.

I stamped the sentiment from the A-GLAZE-ing 4×8 Stamp Set onto Stampin’ Up! Chocolate Chip 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock (retired) with Lawn Fawn YETI Pigment Ink and WOW Opaque Bright White Super Fine Embossing Powder. I popped it up by using 3M Foam Tape.

I finished off the card by adding my Spectrum Noir Clear Overlay Sparkle Pen to add glitter to the donuts, Sugared Surprise Sprinkles Embellishment Mix, Crushed Grapes Gloss Crystal Drops, Autumn Red Crystal Drops, Nuvo Dragon Scales Dream Drops, Nuvo Carnation Pink Crystal Drops, and Nuvo Gloss White Crystal Drops.

On the inside of the card, I stamped a sentiment from the Sprinkles on my Donut 3×3 Stamp Set with Stampin’ Up! Real Red Ink and die cut with the coordinating die. I also added a mini donut.
