Will you join me coffee card

Friday, March 23, 2012 0 Comments A+ a-

Hello again! 
I am back with another coffee card! This time it is a 8.25 x 3.5 card size. So I took a piece of paper and cut it at 8.25 inches by 7 inches and scored it at 3.5 inches to fold it into a long skinny card! These sized cards will fit into the regular business sized envelopes (10). 


I used the Cricut Lite Love you a Latte cartridge for the image on my card. I'm sorry I don't remember what I cut it out at ( I am guessing that it's around 3-3.5 inches though). The paper is from a recollection 180 sheet pad which I bought at Michaels. The alphas are also by recollections from Michaels. 




Happy crafting and enjoy the coffee!

Hey everyone! 


I made this card using the Love you a Latte cricut lite cartridge. I love the colours and it's super fun! I cut the card down to fit into a size 10 envelope because that is what I have on hand (stay tuned for actual cards that are made to fit that size too!). 






I just cut out all the layers and then glued it onto the card. 


Happy crafting! 

Card Sketch Book

Hey everyone! 


I am back making things now that school has gotten a little less crazy! Today I took inspiration from Kristina Werner who made a template for a card sketch book over at her blog. You can download and print the pdf file for the pages from there and she also has a video that tells you how exactly to put it together!

I loved this idea and made one of my own.






The paper I used was from the Dear Lizzy Neopolitan collection (I love love love this collection and I have to buy more of it!!) the light blue alphas are websters pages and the bigger blue alphas are Thickers. The border sticker and the little flowers are both from Dear Lizzy also.

This cart is just so cute! I use it all the time for everything. I put a lot of the images on cards. This is really the cutest cart out there I think!
