Another card made for the The Coffee Beans blog today.  This dolphin Digi file is so adorable.  It looks like it is coming out of the water to say hi to you.  Background paper is blue with waves added to white card stock.  This Digi file is another of our beautiful Anne Ingram's creations.  I colored this cutie with Stampin Up's Stampin Blends in Smoky Slate.  The sentiment is encouraging you to just be yourself. You will be able to find this cutie pie in the Multi Crafters Cafe in the album.  Make sure you dance to your own tune.

Hello everyone. A Valentine's card made for that special mate in your life especially for The Coffee Beans blog page.  Simple but effective in letting that someone know he has the mast to the boat that drives you.  
Inside the card, is adorned with a beautiful sentiment requesting his presence.  This Digi file is from our lovely Anne Ingram and you can find the file in The Multi Crafters Craft Cafe in the album. Behind the boat is some designer paper just to make the card pop and I added the same paper inside the card under the sentiment.  There are some enamel hearts in the same colors.

Welcome to the lady beans blog . This week I am Pleased to announce I am showcasing my very first design for our design team. It's called to the moon and involves a little snark. It can be purchased from our shop that is temporarily at home in the album on the multi crafters craft cafe . The coffee bean stamp machine.



5x7 card with a faded denim distress ink back ground spotted over with a white and silver pen . I then cut out and painted the moon and tickets . I glued on the sentiment then added the embellishments.



I then cut out the rest of the sentiment and put it inside the card. I guess I was feeling a little romantic when I thought of this. Thank you for visiting our blog.

Year of The Rat 2020

After being MIA, I have returned to The Coffee Beans blog. According to Chinese philosophy, the rat is considered to be signs of wealth and prosperity.  The year 2020 is The Year of the Rat according to the Chinese.  With the help of digi files from Janet van lone trieschman of V-studios, I was able to create this card.
I printed the digi images on Whisper White card stock from Stampin Up and colored them in with Stampin Blend markers in Light and Dark Calypso Coral, Light Rococo Rose, Light Smoky Slate, and Dark Basic Black. I then glued Nuvo Pure Sheen Glitter in Diamond on top of the rat and the words. The images were backed on Basic Black cardstock from Stampin Up and then Gold Glimmer Paper from Stampin Up.  Whisper White card stock base with Basic Black matting gives the images an extra pop. 
After making this card, I looked at the other images on this digi file and used them on other cards.  

Thank you for joining me again after my hiatus.  See you in the next blog post.
