COFFEE STAINED CARD | SIZZIX LIFESTYLE | VIDEO


Recently I've learned how to stain papers. I'm loving that old and vintagy look lately. So I went into my kitchen, brew some Coffee Decoction and stored into a plastic cup. It's easy to apply the decoction to your projects with a paint brush or sponge brush.


Products from Sizzix.co.uk

I applied decoction to the projects and sped up the drying process with a heat it tool. I applied second coat to the songbird die-cut for some rustic look. I actually feel that it looks like wood veneer, right?


Next I adhered the papers with Tacky Glue and popped up the die-cut with foam tape. I stamped the sentiment from Mudra in Versafine Sepia Ink and finished the card with a few golden sequins from Mudra.


And that is the card for today and I hope you like it. I have also made a video for you, Enjoy! :)

LOVE ALWAYS CARD | CATHERINE POOLER DESIGNS


The stamping technique I used on this card was a old one but a fun one too. You can CHECK THIS VIDEO to learn this stamping technique. All the products I used to make this card are from Catherine Pooler Designs.

I reversed the stamp and stamped onto the paper with It's a Girl, Tiara and Sweet Sixteen, Mint to be and Melon Ice Inks. Later I stamped the outline portion of the same stamp in Midnight Ink. I fussy cut it and kept it aside. And the pretty flowers are from Beautiful You stamp set.


Onto the main card base I stamped one of the borders from Yay Stripes at the very bottom of the card with Midnight Ink.


Next I took another panel smaller than the main card base and adhered the flowers and leaves as shown above. Finally I finished the card by stamping the sentiment from Beautiful You Stamp Set in Midnight Ink


And that's all for today. Thanks so much for visiting. Take care and I will see you next time! :)
