Coffee Tags

Posted by Picasa
Theme Thursday is all about Tags this week. Perfect challenge for me. I love tags.....maybe to the point of obsession. My tags for this challenge combine 3 things I love....coffee, tags & rubber stamping. I can't wait to see what others do with this challenge. This set of tags, along with the library pocket are available at my Etsy shop. Other tag sets too. I am heading out to shop today. I am hoping to find some new rubbertamps to add to my ever growing collection. Enjoy the tags!

Hope

I hope you have been enjoying my blog. I have met many new people through blogging. I am a school teacher, home for the summer. I just hope I can keep this up when school starts. It is a great creative outlet. I created this blue "Hope" collage for the Arty Girlz Challenge. This is my first time entering their challenge. Take a minute and go check out their blog. Thanks to all who stop by my little blog, please leave a comment. I love you hear what you have to say.

Coffee Lovers

Posted by Picasa
Calling all Coffee Lovers (& friends). In case you haven't noticed, I Love Coffee! and anything coffee related. I am actually part owner of a coffee bar/cafe in Watseka, Illinois. Promises (120 W. Walnut) if you are ever in the neighborhood. I got married and moved to Indiana, leaving my coffee dream behind. In order to keep my love for coffee brewing, I create tags & cards with a coffee theme. I am currently selling them on Etsy. I just listed a set of coffee cup notecards this morning. My new notecards are based on the design from my last post. Put down your coffee cup & go check them out. Coffee Cup Cards You will love these & so will any of your coffee loving friends.

I love coffee and all things coffee/espresso related. So this was fun to create. My husband & I are headed to Ohio this weekend. It is my mother in law's 60th Birthday. Look at yesterdays post to see what I made for her.

Birthday Can Collage

Posted by Picasa

Happy Birthday! This is the coolest idea I have seen in a long time. 1st I must give credit to"Obsessed with Cupcakes" that is where the idea come from. Go check out their blog. They have great how-to pictures. I started with a can of pineapple and ended up with a great birthday gift. I used scrapbooking papers, stickers, glitter, ribbon & a tag. It is filled with hersheys kisses and ribbon. This is a gift/card for my mother in law's 60th Birthday. The can opener is from Pampered Chef, it unseals the can...so then it can be resealed. The recepient will still be able to open it with the pull tab (after you have resealed it with hot glue). It was a fun way to make a unique gift. Let me know what you think. I would love to hear your comments.
