Make a Handmade Card for Coffee-Lovers

Hello friends! It's a new month and a new release at Lil' Inker Designs

I'll be enjoying a lot of this lovely looking iced coffee this week, as I head to sunny (HOT) Phoenix for a few days. The time change from Florida to way-over-yonder is killer for me so caffeine is a must, and temperatures in the hundreds? Bring on the ICY COLD coffee! I just adore the way this simple card came together, using the brand new Lil' Inker Designs Coffee Talk stamp set and some fabulous stitched dies. 


I paper-pieced this iced coffee cup, and added the tiny heart die from the Mini Envelopes die set. (I love the tiny heart and tiny star dies in this set! They're great accents for so many projects!) I love the color combination of kraft, white and. . .just about any color. This pink is warm and friendly, and I know one of my coffee-loving friends will just adore this card! 

There's a whole LOT to see in this month's release, so I hope you'll hop around through the entire blog hop today! Remember, we'll be hopping for 3 days, and there's a chance to win one of three $15 gift certificates to the Lil' Inker Shop, so comment on each blog along the way, and then stop back tomorrow for more NEW products and projects! 

Here's today's blog hop order:


Thanks so much for stopping by today! See you TOMORROW! xoxo

I'm glad they made an ice cream cup as an alternative to the coffee.
I don't drink coffee so I didn't feel comfortable using them.
Can't offer to share something if people know you don't drink coffee.
Love the paper piecing.
thanks for sharing.
