Lawnscaping Coffee Blog Hop
Hello and Happy Friday!If you are participating in the Lawnscaping Coffee blog hop, you should have arrived from my dearest friend, Ellen’s blog.
If you are not participating in the hop, but would absolutely love to, be sure to start hopping (the full list of participants in the hop are listed at the bottom of the post)… oh, and a little birdy told me there was going to be prizes during the hop…! :)
So for my card in the hop, I thought it would be fun to create a coffee cup from another Lawn Fawn set, since I do not have any coffee themed Lawn Fawn stamps.
I created the coffee mug you see here, from an acorn in the Into the Woods set! Very easy to do, I simply masked off the top of the acorn, stamped the bottom portion, and drew in the rest of the details with a black pen.
I colored my coffee mug with Copic markers (BG23, BG34, BG15, E35, E57, E47), fussy cut it out, and then covered the mug with Glossy Accents.
On a cardstock panel, I stamped a sentiment from the Simon Says Stamp What’s Brewing set, and then heat embossed it.
The hearts in the background are from another Lawn Fawn set, Hello Sunshine, and colored the background with Copics (YG00, Y06, V06, V17, BG34, BG23). I also added some shadowing on the panel for my coffee mug using C1, C3, and C5 Copics.
Finally, I scored a frame around the panel, attached it to my black card base (covered in Wink of Stella glitter), and added Glossy Accents to the hearts scattered around the background of my card.
I hope you’ve enjoyed my take on the Lawnscaping Coffee blog hop! Be sure to hop along with us and join in fun! If you encounter any errors along the hop, please email Laurel directly at laurelbeard at me dot com. Please do not leave them in the comments.

What an amazingly creative thing to do! I never, ever would have looked at an acorn stamp and thought “coffee cup”! Never! I guess that’s why you are such a talented artist, you think outside the box. Thank you for the idea – I need to start looking at my stamps differently.
Wow, how clever to create a coffee cup from an acorn stamp! That takes creativity to a whole new level! Very cute card. :)
You did something completely different from all the other ones and its adorable. What a cute friendship card! And all those hearts…
