Paper Pieced Coffee Christmas Card

Hello crafty friends. I'm back with another card for the Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge. I'm still laser focused on buffalo plaid and once I get in the zone, there's no turning back, haha! I hope you'll link up, June 25th is the last day. The theme is masculine, coffee or tea and Christmas. Scroll down for creative details, prize info and my supply list.

My finished project is an A2 sized card, but to begin, I stamped my coffee images on a trimmed card panel that would be sized down a bit when finished.

I stamped my coffee stamps from the Wendy Vecchi stamp set "Let's Shop", using my Misti stamp positioner and black hybrid ink.

Next, I stamped onto patterned paper from Echo Park Paper. It's a retired paper pad but there's a similar pad link in my supply list below. The woodgrain and buffalo plaid scream masculine, wouldn't you agree?

I trimmed the front of the cups only and began paper piecing them with glue, onto my stamped card panel. I know some folks find paper piecing to be tedious, but I actually love it. It's calming and soothing for me! I also used a dark brown Copic marker to color in the coffee.

Lastly, I used my Scrapbookcom A2 nested rectangle dies for my black mat and card panel. If you make a lot of A2 sized cards, I highly recommend this die set. I use it a lot tot create different mat sizes and as of this writing, it's currently half price.  

My mat and card panel are adhered flat, however the stamped sentiment is popped up on foam adhesive. The sentiment is a combination of stamps: Waffle Flower Craft (Merry Christmas) and Wendy Vecchi (friend) which is a word from the "Award Winning' Ranger ink stamp set.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Be sure and link up your newly created card here to be in the running for a sponsored $25 gc prize from Jaded Blossom. Good luck and see you next time!
