Happy National Coffee Day!
Coffee Loving Papercrafters Blog Hop
Happy National Coffee Day, crafty friends! What better way to celebrate than with coffee, cardmaking, and a fun blog hop?!
I’m excited to be joining the Coffee Loving Papercrafters National Coffee Day Blog Hop, and today I’m sharing this warm and cozy autumn card I created for the occasion.
There are 18 stops with prizes along the hop, so be sure to visit the Coffee Loving Papercrafters blog and hop along for lots of crafty inspiration and chances to win!
My Autumn Coffee Card
The large stitched circle became the focal point for my sweet autumn girl holding her coffee.
I layered it over a deep burgundy scalloped circle, which really helps the image pop against the patterned papers. Of course, I had to add plenty of falling leaves around her! I love how they make it look like she’s out enjoying one of those perfect crisp fall days with a warm cup in hand.
And how cute is the little sentiment? “Leaves Crunch, Cups Full” That pretty much sums up my idea of a perfect autumn day!
I also tucked in a few coordinating patterned circles along the edges of the card. It’s such a simple way to bring more of those beautiful papers into the design and tie everything together.
A Little Peek at What I Used
This card features goodies from Not 2 Shabby, including our Vintage Autumn patterned papers and coordinating images from our September Box of the Month along with our Stitched Circle One & Done by Teresa.
I love having all of those stitched circle available on one die, they made creating the layered elements on this card so easy.
I finished everything on a dark neutral A2 card base, which gives all those warm oranges, rusts, creams and browns a beautiful fall frame.

What a Lovely card. The stiched circles by Teresa look so lovely on your card. Thank you for being a sponsor and Happy National Coffee Day. I know I am strange and don't drink coffee, so I have no favorite to tell you. But I do love me some Refresher Strawberry Lemonade Tea. :)

I love Hot Chocolate. Also, whoever did the art work for this stamp set did a great job. I love the look of the woman. She kinda reminds me of B & W cartoons and her sweet face. Thank you for being a Sponsor.

As I sip my (daily go-to) vanilla latte, I'm enjoying this Hop. The card is gorgeous, the image is striking, and the coloring is AMAZING. I'm not good at coloring, so I really admire seeing it done so well. Thanks for sponsoring this special, and very FUN event.

Love the old timey card and have to have caramel and vanilla in my coffee

Hi Jamie. Thank you for being a Super Sponsor this year. Since I can't drink coffee, my favorite Fall coffee drink is hot chocolate. I love your card. I think the ephemera you create at your store is so beautiful. This card is no exception. The girl is so pretty and the surrounding leaves and patterned paper is gorgeous.
