Hey friends! Thank you so much for your patience… I’m finally back on the blog, and I have a lovely new card to share plus some awesome news too! I know I didn’t do a Christmas post with giveaways which is something I always like to do, so I’ll do just that on today’s post! How about we give away a $50 gift card? For a chance to win:
- Make sure you’re subscribed to our blog newsletter (on sidebar).
- Visit our brand new shop over at gracielliedesign.shop
Yes! We’ve left Etsy for good and we just opened a brand new website with over 60 digital sets available (including 5 new digi stamp sets added this week)! - Leave a comment below letting me know what is your favorite digital stamp set from our shop.
- Share this post on social media and invite your friends to join the fun.
While you take in all the info above (LOL), let me show you my latest card using one of our newest digi stamp sets! This set is called Coffee Lovers. We released it for National Coffee Day recently and it also comes with coordinating Coffee Lovers digital paper pack and SVG Cut Files (all of which are available HERE).
For the card’s background I dry embossed a white cardstock panel using the very old Argyle Cuttlebug embossing folder. Then I teared a few pieces of patterned paper that I printed previously on leather textured cardstock and layered 3 pieces on the center of the card panel. I used the new GK Foam tape in white, to give one of the patterned pieces more dimension.
I watercolored this coffee mug using the Paul Rubens watercolor palette. I finished the image with some Diamond Dust Twinklets that I adhered to the topping with Ultra Bond Adhesive. By the way, this new adhesive is amazing for glitter, sequins, ribbon and so much more… It’s super strong, dries fast and clear! Totally recommend it!
For the the sentiment, I decided to draw a heart around it and color it with Spectrum Noir markers… It ended up looking like a yummy butter cookie! I added some shimmer to it using a Sparkle brush pen too.
To finish off my card I adhered a jute twine bow to the mug and some sequins to the background using Ultra Bond Adhesive.
That’s all for now. I so hope you enjoyed today’s post and the you find some inspiration for your own crafty projects! Be sure to join today’s giveaway! We’ll announce the winner of our $50 gift card in a couple of weeks over at Facebook.

The shading on your cup in this

Crafty resolution? Finish one card before beginning another! Focus, focus, focus! And maybe purchase digis instead of clear stamps to cut down on all the Crafty clutter. But how to back up the files? Have to ponder…
