CAS-ual Fridays Stamps - Dec 17 New Release - Day 2

Welcome back everyone to Day 2 of the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps New Release!! I'm sure you fell in love with the dies and stamp set from Day 1 but believe me, there are so many more products to come, so hold on to your seats!! 

First up for Day 2 we have the Coffee Talk stamp set:





These sentiments are so cheeky and naughty, so of course I loved them straight away!! And I can imagine many of you 'coffee lovers' will be relating to a lot of them yourselves!

We also have these fantastic To Go Cup Fri-Dies: 




Ever since the Coffee Blog Hops started, I've been desperately wanting a 'to go cup' die set, so I'm so happy right now!!

I definitely had to create a card using these two products together, and use my most favourite sentiment from the set:


I wanted to create a design that looked sweet and lovely, and then you read the sentiment which shocks a huge laugh out of you (which is what it did to me!!).

I started by die-cutting the 'To Go Cup Fri-dies' from white CS. Since the other side of the world is enjoying snow at the moment, I decided to make that my theme. I stamped and heat embossed some snowflakes from the 'Joy' and 'Merry'  stamp sets in white on the coffee wrapper die-cut. Then using my mini-blending tool and Distress Ink 'Mermaid Lagoon' I coloured over top of the snowflakes and also the cup lid. These were then adhered to the cup.

I wanted the card to look a little like it had snow on it too, so I blended some more of the same Distress Ink where the cup would be sitting, flicked some water on top and removed the water with a tissue. The cup was then put on some foam tape. I die-cut the 'Coffee' word (from the 'Coffee Cup Fri-Dies' set) from a blue paint chip and also 2x from white CS. I glued these together and then to the cup. The sentiment was stamped in black ink and some sequins added from Neat and Tangled.

I know your going to want to get your hands on these new products, so don't forget to use my special code to save yourself 15% on your purchase!!




Over on the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Blog you can see more incredible projects using these products from the other 'Girl Fridays' and also our fabulous Guest Designer, the one and only Amy Tsuruta!! There's also the chance to win some prizes, so definitely go and have a look.

I'll see you back here tomorrow for Day 3 of the release!

Take care
Shona
