Today is....National Coffee Day.....with Graciellie Design and Unity Stamp

Hello everyone!!  Yes, it's true.  Today is National Coffee Day.  Not that I need any special day to celebrate coffee since I drink it daily...several times a day, in fact.  But, since today is an extra special coffee day, I made a card....coffee themed. And I am drinking some of the best coffee in Brasil by Melita!  YUM! 

I started with a digi stamp called Stay Strong that I recently purchased from Gracielle Designs on Etsy.  If you do not like digi stamps, you can also buy this set as a rubber stamp {HERE} at Unity Stamps. 

I printed a full A4 sheet (cuz I will use these).  Then I had my Scan N Cut cut some of the cups out.

  

Next, I printed out one of the sentiments and die cut it with my stitched rectangle die.    I also stamped the flower image from Blossomy Condolences (Unity Stamp) and had my Scan N Cut cut it out.

I colored in the cup and the flowers with a variety of BIC Markers.

Next, I made a top folding A2 card with white cardstock and adhered a piece of designer paper to the front.  Then I adhered the piece with the sentiment to my card front and the cup next to the sentiment.

Next, I put some foam tape behind the flowers and adhered this so they were coming out of the cup.

For the final part, I applied some Stickles on some of the flowers and the heart in the center of the cup and called it a day!

Done!!  I love mixing and matching up different stamps or sets and this cup acts as the perfect vase for the flowers.  Perfect for a coffee lover like me!!  LOL  I hope you enjoyed this quick post.  Feel free to leave a comment below and, as always - 

Hugs from Brasil -
