Snarky Reasons I Need My Coffee Card

By Toni May 25, 2026 // No comments

Good day, everyone! Notice I didn't say "good morning?" Yeah, I'm totally that person.
Toni here with you today with a fun snarky card featuring the new Coffee 3 set.

This was a really simple card to make, truly. I swear it took me longer to decide on the papers to use for the coffee to-go cup than anything else. LOL.

I stamped the Lady Yelling in the corner of the card front and colored her up using Copics. I then randomly stamped the beans from the Coffee 1 set and positioned the to-go cup at an angle. I love that the Coffee 3 sentiment fits perfectly on the sleeve.

Notice how I didn't check off a specific reason? Probably should have an "All of the above" option or possibly "Other: ________."

Morning Coffee Card

By Toni May 17, 2026 // No comments

Hello, friends! Toni here, and although I'm not a coffee drinker, I can so relate to needing that little pick-me-up.

I stamped the funny Snapdragon image onto Bristol white cardstock. I then used Catherine Pooler and Distress Oxide inks to sponge the edges of the panel. I used the same Distress Oxide ink to stamp the Honeycomb pattern.

Next, I colored up the Snapdragon image using copics, finding BG72 and BG75 a good match for the Distress Oxide Speckled Egg ink. I had a scrap of coordinating cardstock and paired that with a small hexagon die for the embossed Coffee Set 1 sentiment.

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my card.

A Festive Makeover: One Simple Masking Technique for Holiday Cards

By kramer_buffy November 18, 2025 // No comments

Hi Everyone, Dalis here.

When I sat down to create, I really wanted to give the Coffee Cup Heart a festive twist. My first instinct was to blast it with peppermint stripes and candy-cane energy, but I realized the cup itself could do all the talking with just a subtle adjustment. By using a single masking technique, I was able to tailor the focal point to fit a holiday theme while still keeping the design clean and balanced. It’s a great reminder that you don’t always need multiple layers or complicated steps—sometimes one well-placed mask is all it takes.

***NOTE: I used a piece of washi tape to mask part of the sentiment from Wanna Have a Cup stamp.

How to Recreate This Card:

For this card is all about masking the Santa's Hat (Lg.) stamp to be on top of the Coffee Cup Heart stamp.
Stamp the Santa's Hat (Lg.) on white cardstock, leaving enough paper to stamp the coffee cup later on, and also onto masking paper using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. Cut the mask paper following the outside line of the image.
Position your masking image on top of the hat. Position the Coffee Cup Heart stamp where the hat seems to be lying on top of it.
Ink and stamp your image,using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, on the white paper, stamping on top of the masking paper. Stamp also the cup onto masking paper.
Color your images with alcohol markers.
Mask and stamp Wanna Have a Cup to use as an inside sentiment.
Using the Snowflakes Sm. and Med. Set of 2 create a background (put your masks back on before you stamp.) You can heat gold emboss the snowflakes or simply stamp with a light color.
Using a small blender brush add color to the center of the snowflakes.
Stamp Tinsel sentiment onto white paper and mat with black paper.
Trim focal image to 3 1/2 x 4 and mat with black paper.
Glue your pattern paper (4 x 5 1/4) to white cardbase. Glue your focal point at an angle.
Glue your matted sentiment onto a scrap of the embossed background. and mat onto black again and glue to card.
Assemble as shown.

Supply List:

Santa's Hat (Lg.)

Coffee Cup Heart

Tinsel

Wanna Have a Cup

Snowflakes Sm. and Med. Set of 2

Memento Tuxedo Black Ink

Additional Supplies: Alcohol Markers, Pattern Papers, and blending brushes.

Stamping a Rainbow of Coffee Beans

By kramer_buffy November 13, 2025 // No comments

Hi everyone, Dalis here!

You know how coffee cards usually lean into browns and neutrals? Well, not this one! When I started this design, I knew I wanted coffee — but I also wanted color. So, I went bold. Vibrant, happy tones, and a palette that just makes you smile. It’s coffee, but in technicolor! Because sometimes a cup of joy needs a splash (or three) of color.

Supply List:

Coffee Bean set of 2

Cool Beans

Versamark Ink

Additional Supplies: Memento Tuxedo Black, Alcohol Markers, white gel pen, pattern paper, wall repair tape, stickers and ephemera, foil, googley eyes, silver thread, and black bling.

How to Recreate This Card:

Lightly draw diagonal pencil lines about one inch apart across your card front.
Stamp your large and small coffee beans, rotating the stamps each time to create visual interest.
Follow the ROYGBIV color order for a fun rainbow look! I used Memento ink pads — they’re bright, vibrant, and stay that way beautifully over time.
Once the ink is completely dry, gently erase your pencil lines.
Add a few doodled hearts for a playful touch.
Stamp the “Cool Beans” sentiment with VersaMark ink onto a piece of vellum, then heat emboss it in black.
Color the beans from the back side of the vellum with alcohol markers, then attach it to your card front.

Pumpkin Spice

By Janet's cards November 12, 2025 // No comments

Hello, Janet here with a coffee card. The best part of fall is the pumpkin spice. You can find it almost anywhere.

I stamped the to go coffee cup and the coffee beans with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. Then I colored them with copic markers. The label on the coffee cup is a piece of pumpkin-designed paper cut to fit. The sentiment, Sit back, Relax, and have a great day, is stamped in the upper right corner with VersaFine Clair Nocturne Ink. I tore the white cardstock, giving it rough edges. Using a soft brush and brown ink I went over the white cardstock. It is layered on brown paper and attached to the card front.

Stamps Used:

coffee set 1

Sit Back

Products Used:

Memento Tuxedo Black Ink

VersaFine Clair Nocturne Ink

Thanks for looking! Hope you are enjoying all the pumpkin traditions.

A Whole Latte Love for Paper Piecing

By kramer_buffy November 10, 2025 // 1 comment

Hi Everyone, Dalis here.

☕ Coffee is my JAM! Honestly, without coffee, life would be… well, let’s just say I’m not willing to risk it for everyone’s safety. 😅

I’ve been hoarding some patterned paper from my #1900sCraftyStash (you know the one—you love it too!), and decided it was finally time to give it some love. The Coffee Cup Heart stamp was the perfect match for a little paper piecing magic, and let me tell you—it turned out even better than I imagined!

I colored the heart and kraft sections to bring it all together, and even with a little fidgeting on the die-cutting part (looking at you, “BEAN” letters 😜), the whole card came together in about 30 minutes.

Scroll down for the full instructions—hope you give it a try! 💛

How to Recreate This Card:

Cardbase is a grey cardstock sized at 7x6 inches. Scored at 3.5 on the 7" side to make this mini slimline. Cut out a piece of pattern paper at 3x5.5" and attached to the front, leaving a frame margin all around it.
Stamp the Coffee Cup Heart on white cardstock and also onto your pattern paper of choice. This teal bubbled paper was just perfection (in my humble opinion.)
Cut out the two pieces that make the cup without the sleeve from the pattern paper stamped piece.
Before gluing the paper pieced pieces color the sleeve, heart and the shadow on the lid of the cup. This way in case you color outside the line the pattern paper might cover it.
Glue your pattern paper pieced pieces onto the white stamped image that you just colored.
Stamp your Bean Awhile sentiment, masking the word BEAN onto white cardstock with your Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. Cut the IT'S and AWHILE and colored the borders to make it look distressed.
Die-cut the word BEAN.
Assemble as shown.

Supply List:

Bean Awhile

Coffee Cup Heart

Memento Tuxedo Black Ink

Additional Supplies: Alcohol Markers, Pattern Papers and Alphabet Dies

Have You Tried Minion Coffee?

By Timothy Thomas November 09, 2025 // 1 comment

I would love to try Minion Coffee,

I feel like it would be enough energy to get me through the day.

I started with a yellow card base. I added a coffee pattern paper for the background.

I also added a strip of wood grain paper for the floor.

I used the cup from the Coffee Set 1 stamp and colored it with alcohol markers.

Next I added the letter M using glitter paper.

I also used the Dave Jumping stamp which I colored using the same markers

as I used for the cup.

I used alphabet dies for the larger sentiment and stamped the smaller sentiment from the

Coffee Set 1 stamp set.

Have a nice day,

Timothy

A Sip of Retro Charm

By kramer_buffy November 08, 2025 // 1 comment

Hi Everyone, Dalis here.

There’s something about that 50’s carved look on stamps that always makes me stop scrolling. It’s nostalgic and bold at the same time — like finding a piece of vintage charm that still feels modern. When I saw this coffee stamp at Crackerbox Stamps, it went straight into my cart. I knew it would be one of those stamps I could use again and again — for anyone, any occasion. I paired it with a retro color palette that just felt right, and honestly, the sentiment tied it all together. The pièce de résistance, as they say!
