Wooden Coffee Gift Tags

back with a gift idea useful for your crafty friends. I packaged these up for some of my coworkers. what are they you ask? it's a metal dish that catches your dies. I often misplace my small dies and constantly look for them as I'm using them. when die cutting, you can just place your dies in the dish without worry of losing pieces. I tied it off with some wooden tags after stamping and coloring some coffee themed stamps.

be merry

 hello! today's card is pretty CAS. I can be just as merry and have a cup of tea instead of other "adult" beverages!
thanks so much for stopping by! to check out more coffee/tea themed cards, head over here!

happiness

today's card features a holiday bingo journaling card. I always save my coffee cup sleeves after I'm done with my beverage. I love to run it through my die cut machine and cut shapes like this coffee mug. I think the writing on the sleeve, when cut out, adds interest! does anyone else upcycle their coffee cup cardboard sleeves?
stop off here for lots more cards & projects!

international tea day

today is international tea day. when the weather gets cooler, I switch from coffee beverages to tea. I do love my tea especially when it's at just the right temperature to drink!
what is your favorite tea and brands of tea? I love Harney & Sons pomegranate oolong or pumpkin spice. trader joe's early grey is a favorite of mine too!
I'm sorry for the awful photo of the card. this time of year is so busy.....school performance, homework, holiday stuff. I couldn't take a pic during the day but I promise you, the colors on the card are more vibrant!
thanks for stopping by! go here to see more cards centered around coffee and tea!

it's been oolong

it's really been oolong! the only time I dust off the blog is for either the coffee lovers blog hop or for special lawn fawn posts. life is busy around here and I am sure it is for you!

sharing a card for my love of tea when the seasons change. a friend gifted me with a tin of harney & sons pomegranate oolong years ago and I love it! I order it every year in a bag of 50 sachets. their teas are also available at stores like target and barnes and noble in other flavors. this cute stamp set is from sweet stamp shop called 'oolong'.

check out more fabulous fun cards here! thanks for stopping by!

coffee


there's only a few times a year I post to my blog now-a-days and the coffee lovers blog hop is one of them! thanks to my friend amy who puts this together with some help of fellow crafters. thanks to all the sponsors too!


do you ever go to starbucks and see those pretty cards that describe their small lot coffee? I always snag a few to make a card or two out of them. this one has a watercolor look to it. I die cutted a starbucks coffee sleeve with lawn fawn hearts die and simon says stamp's coffee cup die.

thanks for stopping by!

how lovely

this time of year is super busy for me. end of the school year is winding down, planning multiple school parties and have family here visiting. I'm also trying to make fun end of the year projects for the boys' teachers and for the school staff.
I really wish I had more time to make more cards for this hop. but quick and easy was the way to go this time around. that's why I love store bought die cuts!
