Happy Birthday!

Happy First Day of Spring! 💮

I'm sending this card to a birthday lady in my coffee card swap group. 

I recently purchased the newly released stencil & die set from Waffle flower. This cupcake looked so yummy and wanted to use it right away. 😊I made a dozen die cuts with the cupcake images in different color combinations, and from there, I started to make a card. I often use color yellow for the cards I make for April. Her birthday is in the beginning of April. Here is the card I made.

I wanted to include a special sticker sheet and didn't wanna fold it, so I made a Slimline card. It fitted perfectly with my card. 

Inside, I stamped a sentiment stamp from MFT, and added extras, using the stamps from Honey Bee stamps, the Greetery and Stampendous!

How's the first day of Spring look like in your area? 

Thanks for stopping by my blog today. Weekend is almost here! Love, Eve 

Coffee Card for Sept.2024

Aloha, I'm back on the list of Coffee card swap. 

Here is my card. Now, I'm addicted to this cross stitch thingy. Once upon a time, I cross stitched A LOT, sometimes 8 hours a day, as if it was my job! LOL Back then, of course, I did very detailed, and large cross stitch patterns, like 28, 32 and even on 36 on linen. I hadn't cross stitched for, liked 2 decades? and Lawn Fawn released these stitch dies. These are much easier to complete, like this one, in 50 mins. while I watched the rerun of NCIS. I have many flosses left from like 20 years ago, so I used the ones I had. You'll see more of these cross stitched pieces on my cards for this fall and winter. I've already finished a couple of them for Halloween and Christmas! LOL Again, I used several different company's products; Lawn Fawn, Sunny Studio, Honey Bee Stamps, and The Greetery. 

This is the inside of the card.

This weekend arrived early, thanks to the long weekend in US! 

Please stay safe from the heat in the areas with Heat warning, like Arizona and California.

Coffee card for September swap

Aloha~

PSL season has arrived! Yaaaas! 😋So, this is my card. 

I love this stamp set from The Greetery. I fell in love with the argyle pattern paper which Honeybee stamps released very recently, and I had to use this particular paper for the card. I first layered the background papers, and then, I designed and chose the stamps for the front. Usually it's other way around, but I really love this paper and other papers in that paper pad! The sentiment on the top is from Sunny Studio stamps and I layered it over the die cut without the sentiment. Other sentiments are from Art Impressions. 

First day of fall is just around corner! Happy Fall, y'all! 

Coffee card for March, 2023

Aloha~

This is my March card for "coffee card" swap group. March always makes me think of St. Patrick's day and green. But, I had to make it for "coffee themed" card, so here is my completed card. 

I used a stencil from Simon Says Stamps, using three different green colors, Concord & 9th's girl, drinking coffee and a small sentiment from the Greetery. I added a couple of embellishments. 

Inside, I used this saying, and added COFFEE. lol 

Hope you had a happy, St. Patrick's day yesterday! 

Hope you are having a great weekend! Love, Eve

Coffee card for December swap

With this strong "cold" winds, almost everyday, I caught a cold and wasted a week in this busy December... my Christmas card making has been really delayed.. Yes, even Hawaii gets "winter", a different kind of winter but it reminds me that this is Hawaii's winter when I need to bring a long shirt or hoodie and sometimes have to wear a pair of pants instead of shorts... 

So, this is my card. I love this stamp set from The Greetery! Usually I buy craft supplies during the big sales but once in a while, I fall in love with it and have to buy right away, and this set was that... I used this stamp set for fall and now, it's a Peppermint Mocha time! 

I used my ANOTHER "fell in love" product from Waffle Flower for this but they just released it (I believe?!) so I didn't have to wait too long for the sale, which is the poinsetta stencil I LOVE IT!! I made this as a top folding card this time. I used the foam tape on the back of the coffee glass but not the whipped cream and the straw so that it looks as if they are inside of the glass. These cute embellishments are from Trinity Stamps. They carry such cute embellishments! 

Hope y'all are not going to get buried in snow this week. We are having a little better week, weather wise, compared to last week. Thank you for stopping by my blog today. Stay warm!  Hugs, Eve
