Hello! Today I am participating in a blog hop organised by Kylie and Bruno Bertucci as part of their Demonstrator Training Program. We are a group of Demonstrators from around the world who are taking part in training that is helping us with our Stampin' Up!® business. I am so pleased to welcome you to my blog today for this blog hop.
We are sharing ideas for thank you cards to send to our customers that shop with us during the month. I have made the same fun fold card in a several colours using only a few supplies. They could easily be made with just stamps, ink and card but I added a textured layer using the Tasteful Texture embossing folder and a little colouring too.
Our kitchen renovations are ongoing, so the house is still upside down and the path to my craft space is still littered with too many non-crafty items! I was determned to make enough space on my desk to create a few cards and, although the supplies were limited, I think that the cards do still have impact. The stamping is simple but is enhanced by colouring. The coffee beans are filled in using a light Crumb Cake Blend and the coffee cups are accented with a Chalk Marker. I am so pleased that I used the Press On stamps for the very first time! Finally!
I knew that I wanted to use Early Espresso for these cards - well you can't make a coffee themed card without using it, can you? Crumb Cake is an obvious partner and I chose the other colours to provide a splash of colour.
I'm really pleased with how they turned out and I think that the Granny Apple Green, Magenta Madness and Calypso Coral really pop against the Early Espresso. Which one do you like best?
I've continued the coffee theme throughout the layers and left space to write a message too.
