It's time for summer vibes as Celeste and I get together for Coffee & Cards this month. We are having a heat wave here but I'm grateful for our new heat pump that keeps our house so much cooler than our old one. And of course, lots of iced coffee !! Celeste chose our inspiration photo for July - and it's absolutely perfect !!
For my card, I used the Bold Summer collection from Joann's . The paper pad and dimensional stickers were exactly what I needed !! And believe it or not, I didn't even do any stamping on this project.
- I adhered a piece of watermelon patterned paper onto an A2 card base.
- My Big and Little Chain Rectangle die was used to cut out a mat for the Sweet Summer Time sticker.
- After adhering the sticker to the dark green die cut, I placed it in the center of the card base.
- A dimensional Watermelon Mojito sticker was adhered to the right lower corner of the matted sticker.
What a quick and easy card to capture summer !! To see what Celeste has made, check out her blog post - Crafting Junky . To keep cool on these hot summer days, I love to drink iced coffee . Today I'm drinking an Iced Toasted Coconut Mocha and using one of my fun coffee sleeves . Are you a fan of Iced Coffee ?? I'll admit that sometimes my morning cup of coffee sits while I putter around the house doing chores, making a card etc... And lately instead of reheating it one more time in the microwave, I will just add some ice and turn it into a fabulous iced version !!
Thank you for stopping by to see our summery cards. Have you been creating seasonal cards lately ?? Although I am enjoying summer so far, I know that Fall ( and cooler temps ) are right around the corner. We will see you next month - until then, Stay Creative..
