Mom's Day!

Hello everyone! I am back! I took a little hiatus.  As you all know, Mom's day is on the horizon.  The tulips were are a special image from Anne Ingram. I printed them and had my Scan N Cut do the work of cutting the images out.  The tulips were colored with my Stampin Up Stampin Blends Markers. Mom stamp is from the stamp set Mom's Clematis from Simon Says Stamps.  The background is designer series paper from Stampin Up and the bees are from Stampin Up's Paper Pumpkin from January 2020 "I'll Bee Yours".  Of course Salima has to bling, so I added a little embossing powder Brutus Monroe called Spring Sparkle and a little bling to the head of the bees.  Hope you enjoy this beautiful card

Cute Lil Masculine Card

       Hi, Salima here representing The Coffee Beans Blog for The Lemony Fizz and its amazing digital files.  This specific file has 2 coffee cups to choose from. One with a mustache and the other with a daisy. I chose the one with a mustache to make a masculine card.  The sentiment is from Unity Stamps Enjoyed Together set which was heat embossed in penny embossing powder from Brutus Monroe onto Wood Texture Designer Series Paper from Stampin Up (no longer available) measuring 4 by 5 and a quarter. This was placed on an A2 size card base in Very Vanilla card stock from Stampin Up.

     The coffee cup was stamped on Stampin Up's Whisper White card stock. I colored the card using Stampin Up's Stampin Blends in Blackberry Bliss, Bronze, and Gray Granite and then fussy cut it out.  I stamped the card a second time and colored and cut the mustache separately. Attached that to the front of the cup with Stampin Dimensionals to accent it. The cup was then attached to the front of the card at an angle.  Adhesive-backed sequins from Stampin Up and Wink of Stella used to bling up my card, cause you know the Glitter Queen needs her bling! Enjoy your most important moments together with that special man in your life whether he be your son, brother, father, grandfather, or significant other or anyone else who is special in your life. And don't forget the coffee.

Everyone knows I love my bling, but very few are aware of my sarcasm

Good evening everyone. Thank you The Coffee Beans for allowing me to be a part of your design team. And thank you The Cutting Cafe for sponsoring The Coffee Beans. I am known as the glitter queen by many of my friends and followers. However, I am known by a choice few of how sarcastic I can really be. I am really not a great fan of coffee.  In fact, I cannot even allow myself to swallow it.  That being said when I looked at the sentiments by Coffee Beans cut files, I had to chuckle.  I found the best coffee cup stamp from Unity Stamps Enjoyed Together set. The person standing beside the coffee cup looks very smug as if to say she is all that and a bag of chips... or should I say a bag of chocolate-covered coffee beans. I heat embossed her in Gilded embossing powder from Brutus Monroe on Very Vanilla card stock from Stampin Up and watercolored the stamped image.  I cut out the image and layered it on Gold Shimmery paper from Tonic Studios.  The card base is also Very Vanilla.  The Coffee cut file is part of The Cutting Cafe cut files which I used my Scan N Cut in black card stock.  That was glued in place in the center of the card. The sentiment which is my standing point is I love you Like I love Coffee.... To the unknown, everyone would say Awww she loves you so much... But this is saying just the opposite with a self-satisfied look. You can find the file for Coffee Word Shaped card by clicking on Coffee
