A CAS-ual Fridays Card for the Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop

Hello everyone!! Popping in on this Friday with a card I created for the Spring/Summer Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog Hop. I used CAS-ual Fridays Stay Strong stamp set, By the Beans stencil and Coffee Cup Fri-dies

I started off my card by blending Peeled Paint Distress Oxide onto an A2 piece of kraft cardstock. I then stenciled the coffee beans over the front using Ground Espresso Oxide Ink.

I flicked some Old Paper Distress Oxide and sprayed some Walnut Stain Distress Stain over the top of my card. When that dried, I stamped the sentiment from the CAS-Fridays Stay Strong stamps on the top left using MFT Hot Fudge ink. Next I adhered the panel over an A2, cream colored card.

I die cut the coffee cup out of a scrap of vanilla cardstock and some pattern paper. I inked around the edge of the coffee cup with some Vintage Photo Distress Ink.

I used Ground Espresso Oxide for the "coffee" in my cup. I adhered my coffee cup to the card with foam adhesive

My last step to my card was to use Glossy Accents over the top of some of my sentiment and the "coffee" in my cup. 

I love how this came out!! It is a bit on the "grungy" side but it was so fun to make. I am enjoying just inking up stuff and seeing what comes out!

Again, this was a card I created for The Spring/Summer Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog Hop and CAS-ual Fridays Stamps.

New from CAS-ual Fridays Stamps-Peaceful Garden and Garden Fri-Dies

Happy Hump Day!!

Today I am back with a project using the new CAS-ual Fridays Stamps "Peaceful Garden" stamp set and "Garden Fri-Dies."


I started off my card by covering a neutral, A2 card base with patterned paper. I then used foam adhesive to adhere a circle where I had stamped the leaves from the "Peaceful Garden" stamp set.


Next I adhered some vellum leaves that I had die cut using the "Garden Fri-Dies." I topped them with some red roses that I had die cut using the same die set.


I added a black, gold embossed sentiment strip in the middle of the circle and then covered all the roses with Glossy Accents.


To finish off the card, I randomly added some clear sequins.

These new products are available now in the "NEW" section of the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Store. Use my code-NORASENTME-to get an extra 15% off your total order.

CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Snowflake Inspiration

It is Christmas Eve and my turn over at the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Blog for a little inspiration. I created three projects for this post, all using some of the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps snowflake dies and stamps.

My first project I created a thank you card.


I used CAS-ual Fridays Stamps "Bring on the Snowflakes," "Snowy Sayings" and "Thanks" stamp sets for this card. I designed this card to be very simple so that I could easily whip up a ton to write my Christmas thank you notes.



I stamped the snowflakes from both snow sets in green, pink, aqua and lavender inks onto a blue card base. I then stamped the sentiment with black ink. I added a bit of sparkle to the snowflakes with glitter glue that matched the ink colors.

My next project I created for my "Secret Snowflake" I had at work.


I die cut snowflakes put of white paper scraps using the CAS-ual Fridays Fri-dies "Funky Flakes" and "Flurry," dies.


I then inserted die cut snowflakes in a clear envelope, added white flat and star sequins, as well as a gift card, and then fused them at the top. I have never done this technique before and thought the result was cool. I am now going to look at using my dies in fun, new ways.


I created a tag to match, stamping snowflakes from "Bring on the Snowflakes" and "Snowy Sayings" onto the large tag from the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps "Tag Buddies" die set.


Since I was not wrapping this gift up, the inks I used for the snowflakes matched the gift card.

If you like any of the projects here, the stamps and dies can be purchased from CAS-ual Fridays Stamps store. Use my code nora2016 to get a 15% discount.

CAS-ual Fridays Sneak Peek-"Dream Then Do" Stamp Set

Hello blog friends!! Are you as excited for today's CAS-ual Fridays sneak peek? The design team is showing projects made with the new products that will be available on Saturday, April 30, 2016 at CAS-ual Fridays Stamps.

Without further ado, here is the sneak peek of the new "Dream Then Do" stamp set.


Isn't this set fabulous? I LOVE the sentiments and the fonts used for this!!

For my first card, I chose to make the focus on the sentiment.


I started the card by "smooshing" Twisted Citron and Cracked Pistachio Distress ink on the front of a piece of watercolor paper. I then dried it with my heat gun and adhered it to the front of a 4 1/4" by 5 1/2" card base. Next I adhered an aqua card stock circle onto the front.


I stamped the sentiment from "Dream Then Do" stamp set onto white card stock using aqua dye ink. I mounted it on top of a piece of Basic Grey patterned paper using foam adhesive. I then randomly adhered sequins that matched the paper to the card front to draw your eye through the card.

For my second card, I combined the "Dream Then Do" stamp set with the "Pretty Posies" stamp set that was introduced in my post yesterday.


I randomly stamped the flowers from the "Pretty Posies" stamp set onto a piece of white card stock and colored them in with Copic markers. I then cut the white card into a 4" by 5 1/4" panel and adhered it onto a red card base.


Next I stamped the sentiment from "Dream Then Do" in black onto a piece of patterned paper. I adhered it to the front of the card using foam adhesive. I then took gold hearts that I had die cut using the "Fun-Fetti Fri-Dies" and adhered them to the front around the flowers.
