Find your bliss

Hi everyone! Gotta say “cha, cha, cha… it’s Friday” and I’m once again doing the happy dance! Love my Fridays! Hope you have a great weekend planned! Today is my post day on the Dare 2B Artzy blog and I’m stoked to share my DT inspiration project using the Paisley Bliss and Tall dark & Rich stamp sets, Pomegranate ink and Fields of Joy Orange Plaid paper.

I created an adorable shaped card this time – a to-go coffee cup complete with a corrugated wrap! And fun paper and sentiments! This was definitely trial and error because I didn’t make a prototype first, and I ended up tossing the first one which didn’t make me very happy! But I sure LOVE how it turned out! :D

I created the cup out of white cardstock and added a decorative band made of pretty plaid paper layered on orange cardstock along with a corrugated wrap. I cut the sentiment with a stitched oval die and adhered several loops of cord behind it for a little interest, and finished it with several blue Dot Sparklers.

I kept the inside fairly simple with a stamped sentiment on a layered panel.

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We have 10 feline rescues. I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty lovins! ;)
