Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!

Today I'm playing along with the Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog hop!

There are going to be TONS of fun prizes too - 

including a $25 store credit from us at Newton's Nook Designs! 

You can head over to the Coffee Lovers Blog for more details on how to play along! 

Here's what I created:

I pulled out our Sending Hugs Stamp Set and stamped the kitty and coffee mug onto watercolor paper. I used Zig Watercolor Markers to color the kitty and the mug and then cut them out with the coordinating Sending Hugs Die Set! This die set is super fun because it also cuts around the arms of the animals which makes it easy for them to hold the fun accessories in the set. This set includes a few different items for them to hold but I stuck with the coffee for today's post!  

Behind the Kitty is a scallop edge rectangle that I cut out using our new Framework Die Set. I splashed some pink and brown watercolor on it to match the kitty and coffee. For the sentiment, I used "I need some coffee right MEOW" from our Newton Loves Coffee Stamp Set. I stamped it onto a black ticked shape, also cut out from using the ticket from the Framework Die Set. For the background panel I stamped coffee beans from the Newton Loves Coffee Stamp Set over a panel of kraft colored cardstock. I mounted the whole design onto a pink cardstock base. 

While I was coloring I couldn't resist also coloring the bear and owl from the Sending Hugs Stamp Set so I created a second card using the same layout and elements but featured those two cuties instead. Again, the sentiment  and coffee bean background images are from the Newton Loves Coffee Stamp Set. I used the Framework Die Set again to cut out the scallop edged rectangle and ticket shape. This time I mounted it all on a green cardstock base. 

I hope you enjoyed these two fun coffee cards today!

If you are new to us, you might not know that Newton is our real kitty! You can follow us on facebook or instagram to see lots of photos of him! By the way - Newton would be a big fan of this blog hop since he really DOES LOVE COFFEE! I can't leave it unguarded or he will come stick his paw into the mug and then lick it! Silly kitty!

Hope you enjoyed this coffee card today! Make sure you head over to the Coffee Lover's Blog to find out how you can link up your card to play along -- There are a TON of prizes, including one from us at Newton's Nook Designs!
