Coffee Filter Collaboration

Now and again, I join a group of friends to do a collaboration. Sometimes we do a theme. Other times we have a pile of common supplies. This go around, we decided to use coffee filters, or a tea bag. The sky was the limit, no holds barred. I decided to make a canvas to hang in my kitchen because coffee is life.


I took my coffee stained filter, and whilst I sipped the delicious brew that passed through it, I added even more color with my Distress Inks. I set that aside and grunged up my canvas with more Distress Ink and some stamps. Setting that to one side, I stamped this awesome coffee treat stamp Stay Strong, by Unity Stamp Co. I cut the word from coffee related digi paper by Gracielle Designs. I seriously love this paper pack. I found this cute lil wood veneer to go cup and dark "gems" and finally added a piece of flair from A Flair For Buttons, Hello Coffee. It pretty much sums up have I feel about coffee.

Thanks for having a look and I'll see you next time!

She Declined

Hello, Laura here with you today with a kitty layout for A Flair For Buttons. My cat recently had to have an oral procedure done, under anesthesia. When I went to pick her up, several people told me how funny she had been, under the influence of the drugs. they sent a surgery tech to collect her and suddenly we hear what sounds like 6 cats in an epic brawl. A few minutes later, the tech emerged with my cat and said, "I tried to bandage her IV site. She declined." Yeah, I think we all got that message.

The Got Cat  and Cute Kittyflair set were perfect for my story. The lil kitty is darling and I can just hear the "meow meow meow" as cat cursing at the indignities she was suffering.

Sir Fox - A Flair For Buttons Layout

Happy Tuesday! Today I'm sharing a layout from my recent trip to Yellowstone, using flair from A Flair For Buttons. If you haven't been there in the winter, you should make it a goal to visit this land of fire and ice. Not only does the steam billow more, but the animals come closer to the rivers that run through the park because they are some of the few that aren't frozen over. Every day we saw coyote, fox, eagles, bison, and all the water fowl.

I am bringing you this adorable fox that we saw. He was close and walked right towards us. It was a pretty special moment for our entire group.
I used the fox and heart from the Woodland Creatures flair pack. The fox even has a scarf on!

Happy scrapping,
Laura
