Happy Monday, STAMPfriends! We are back with some incredible card inspiration to kickstart your week. Today, the talented Stephanie Lanzalotto is sharing two gorgeous, coffee-themed cards that are perfect for the caffeine lovers in your life.
Stephanie focused on the rich, textured designs from The Coffee House Collage Paper Pack to create these cozy and detailed projects. By combining these beautifully printed papers with clean stamping and delicate die cuts, she shows just how versatile collage backgrounds can be.
Let's take a closer look at Stephanie's featured cards:
Delight In The Little Things Card
Stephanie created a wonderful contrast of patterns. She used a background panel covered in the realistic, dark roasted coffee bean print. She then layered a crisp white rectangular panel stamped with the detailed, patterned coffee cup and donut stamp. To complete the card, she added an oval white element in the bottom right corner stamped with the script sentiment, "Delight in the little things".
Java Great Day Card
For her second card, Stephanie went for a rich, layered look. She fussy-cut images from The Coffee House Collage Paper Pack -- beautiful, pre-printed illustrations of a coffee cup, a chocolate bar, cinnamon sticks, and a raspberry-topped cupcake, all set against a background of coffee beans. She matted this stunning imagery with a thin dark burgundy frame and mounted it onto a textured cream card base. For her sentiment, she nested a delicate, off-white script die cut using the Java Great Day Phrase Die right over the lower right portion of the saucer.
Aren't these cards just the perfect blend of warmth and texture? Stephanie did an amazing job bringing out the cozy coffee house vibes with these designs!
