WOW I have been busy. When I came here to post earlier today SCS gallery/blogs were down. So I got caught up in creating. This post will be pretty short since I am exhausted! Lots of projects-little time, and NO engergy! Im totally wiped today-and could use another cup of coffee!
Speaking of coffee………….
I created a card the other day, with Alexa’s set, I had this SEI paper (Hippie Chick) laying out. I thought the colors were so cool, and would make a funky Java Jar! I had also finished another project using this little stamp duo (which will apprear in the Lizzie Anne Idea book!) so that propelled me to try this set.
I got this glass canister at Walmart for maybe $2. I knew I wanted to alter it for my coffee. I LOVE coffee. Imagine how scrumptious these colors will look with chocolate brown coffee grounds in it! Or beans-
The thing I like about this jar is its not TYPICAL. You know-the normal coffee colors and decor.
So I used my Lizzie Anne Latte Cup and sentiment for this set.
For the cups I stamped/cut on the patterned paper. I also stamped the image on the chocolate chip circles, then paper pieced it.
The layers are attached with my Xyron 900.
Then came the card
Same paper-lots of layers! I used some rub-ons for the cup. Thought it was quite funky!
Anyway-just a fun set to share.
I have been stamping away. So come back tomorrow! More stuff to share.

I love your Java Jar, and card! Wonderful!
That is just the cutest little Java Jar, evah! Even though I don’t drink coffe (gasp! right?) I’m thinking I should definatly decorate a tea one to keep in my locker at work. Know what else would be cute? A savings jar for scrapbooking/stamp money! AWESOME idea, Lauren!
Love to the card too!
