LeighSB's Spring Blog Hop 2021- Day 21 - March 27th

This is another post for

 LeighSB Designs spring-blog-hop-2021


This is my Day 21!

Gradually I am working through the Spring flowers and using some samples from the Stampin' Up rep! I also bought the Garden Wishes stamps and Dandy Wishes dies - and there they were waiting to be played with - a NBUS - so will link this to Darnell's blog!

I decided to make a CAS Thank you card.

I love that dandelion die.


Recipe:
  1. Pale blue card blank.
  2. Three dandelion die cuts, cut from a blue spot Stampin Up paper.
  3. Oval die cut (unbranded die) from Stampin Up Dandelion paper.
  4. Thank you in pale blue - Avery Elle die.

This was an idea based on a CAS Colours and Sketches #412 sketch and I will share this there.




It will also go to LeighSB's Linky



Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop 2021 Post #15

     

Delighted to have won a FLASH prize in the

Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop 2021!

If you saw my last post I had just came across these book mark sleeves in my craft room - what's better than a coffee and a book?

And I made a second book mark...


And I found one last strip of that coffee background...

The book mark is the same both sides using cardstock from my scraps and a stamps from CAS_UAL Fridays (Sponsor).


The coffee pot and cup stamps are from when I was still living in Abu Dhabi.


Finally I added some ribbon...


Happy Crafting!

Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop 2021 Post #12

   

This is my twelfth post in the Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop 2021!


Just another simple card:



I love this Stampin' up paper that I have used as the first layer on the kraft card blank. I think it is from Dandy Wishes. I then just added the image  from Bugaboo, Frame it - JJ Coffee coloured with markers.




Happy Crafting!
