Nothings Better Than....Colouring with Friends

Hello, the 'Nothings Better Than' stamp set is easy to colour with our Stampin' Blends Markers.  I had the good fortune of a virtual stampin' social with friends last Saturday evening,  and I spent my time chatting & colouring.  It's so relaxing to chat and colour with friends.  Here's one of the cards I made.



  In January I offered a Heart & Stroke Fundraiser called,  Zoom Social "Creating with Friends" for Heart & Stroke, our Saturday evening get together was a Zoom Social.  For details please see the picture below.  If you'd like to help me with my donation to Heart & Stoke this year, there's still time.  Simply send me an email lesley@stampintrix.ca and place a $60.00 online order using Hostcode JATDWGZA  Lesley Seabrook SU store  by February 27, 2021


Here's the card details:

The card was created with an 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 card base scored at 4 1/4 for a landscape Night of Navy card.  I added a 2 x 5 1/2 piece of 'In Good Taste' designer series paper for a background band.  Then I added a 5 1/2 x 3 1/2 layer of Night of Navy topped with a 4 1/2 x 3 piece of 'Love You Always' specialty designer series paper, from the Spring Mini Catalogue.   The Basic White Layer is 3 3/4 x 1 1/2 for the sentiment &/or image.   I decided to only add the coffee cups, coloured with Seaside Spray and Crumb Cake Stampin' Blends.  I wanted to have a few cards on hand that I could add a sentiment to later, or just simply to write a note on the inside as needed.  So I went rogue and omitted the sentiment on the front of the card, eeek is that allowed :)

I thought this card would be perfect to send to someone inviting them to a virtual coffee and chat,  or a coffee & cards class, or simply a "miss you" card - for that special friend you used be able to have coffee with.  

This card was inspired by a free tutorial from  Stampin' Pretty  

Enjoy and Have a super day!
