Coffee Card Collab with Deb | Coffee Loving Paper Crafters Coffee Hop

Hey y'all.  Today, my friend Deb and I are doing a CCC, a "Coffee Card Collab", to help spread the word about the 2025 Spring Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.  There are lots of Sponsors and prizes to be won!  Deb and I are NOT affiliated or taking part in the hop - just spreading the news.  

For my card, I dug out a very old stamp set called Espress Yourself from Stampin Up. It's wood-mounted and from 2002.  Today is the first time I trimmed the images, adhered them to the wood blocks, and used them to make this slimline coffee card. WOW.  Perhaps you have stamps that you can use tif you want to make this card or one like it.    

This is how I made this slimline card.  

• I made a top-folding slimline card base using white cardstock, 3.5" x 8.5".
• I printed one of the papers from the Coffee Lovers Digital Paper Pack from Graciellie Designs and adhered it to the card front. 

• I die-cut a piece of Kraft cardstock using a 2.5" x 7.5" slimline die.
• I used Coffee Archival Ink to blend a coffee stencil from my stash.  I also distressed the edges.   
• I die-cut it using the Slimline Stitched Square Trio from MFT/Dienamics.  
• I adhered this to a piece of fun foam - even the square inside pieces - and then to the card front. 

• I stamped one of the sentiments and the large coffee cup twice, on white cardstock.  Then I die-cut them using the same Slimline Stitched Square Trio die so that each one would fit in the space.  
• I colored the images, added a piece of fun foam to the back of each one, and adhered them to the card front.  

Make sure to go check out the card that Deb made.  You can find it either on her Facebook page or on her Instagram page.  Remember to like her card and leave her a comment!  Tell her the gringo sent you.  LOL

Thanks for stopping by the blog today.  I hope you find a moment to check out all the cool cards in the 2025 Spring Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.  Until next time...
