Lawnscaping Challenges - BLOG HOP!

I am so very excited to be part of the Lawnscaping + Caffeine = Happiness Blog Hop! Welcome to my blog you should have arrived here from Amy's blog.


Here is the entire list of the blogs on the Hop If you encounter a broken link please do not report it in the comments, e-mail Laurel directly at: laurel beard at me dot com. :

Kim H.  ***YOU ARE HERE

What an appropriate theme for me, coffee is my go-to drink and it does equal happiness in my little world! I ended up making three projects featuring Lawn Fawn's Love you a Latte set for this hop keep scrolling to see them.


There are so many wonderful sponsors for this blog hop:  Lawn Fawn, Ellen Hutson, The Ink Road, Crafters Companion, Spectrum Noir, The Alley Way Stamps, Newtons Nook, Faber Castell, and Right at Home! 


Don't forget to leave an original comment on each stop on this hop to qualify for one of the wonderful prizes! And your comments must be made before 11:59 p.m. Eastern Standard time on June 28 to qualify.

So now for my projects:


Got Coffee? What's better then coffee and rainbows! Aside from the Love you a Latte Set I also used Lawn Fawn's Voilet's ABCs, one of my favourite letter sets the slim scale makes them easy to use on projects.  I Copic coloured the coffee cups and piled them high! For my rectangle I used the Lawn Fawn stitched rectangles by cutting half of the paper first then readjusting to cut the second side to make a longer card. I also added, of course, PPP sequins.



This one will more than likely go to one of my nieces or nephews, yes I am a bad auntie and I introduced them to Starbucks! I made a shaker for this one with a mix of PPP sequins. I used the Lawn Fawn Let's Polka Mon Amie 6 x 6 for the background and some SSS mint cardstock for the frame. The ombre ink is Hero Arts Mint to Green.


The last one is a gift card holder, I often give Starbucks or Tim Horton's gift cards to friends. Can never have enough of those! Mimicked a Starbucks cup and tried to make a more masculine card. I used the coffee bean from the Love you a Latte set for the green background added some Lawn Fawn die cut hearts, Lawn Trimmings in green and sequins.

Thank you so much for taking the time to join me for the Hop today, I really enjoyed making these projects. Your next stop on this hop is Monica M.

    WOW! you were busy getting ready for the hop. I love all three of your cards! Hard to pick a favorite. I do love the shaker card - the mint green is just soooo appealing to me. I'm in awe of your tall rainbow stacked coffee cup card and really love the idea of placing a gift card on the card front like that! Great ideas!

    All three cards of yours are so unique. No one will ever refuse to drink so much coffee from such a rainbow collection of coffee cups:) Great choice of colors. Your second card is just fabulous. Love the color combination and the shaker element. As for the gift card folder, wow, a really brilliant idea. Thaks for the inspiration and will definitely try to do one when there is a chance.
