DL.ART Thankful Thursday #164 - Coffee, Tea or Any Drink

Happy Thursday!! It's time for a DL.ART Thankful Thursday Challenge!! The theme this week is Coffee, Tea or Any Drink, and the challenge is sponsored by The Cutting Cafe.


We got to use some of the fabulous files from The Cutting Cafe for the challenge. It gave me the chance to relearn how to use my poor, neglected Explore :)


I using the Coffee Cup Shaped Card 2 Cutting File for this card. The papers are from an old My Mind's Eye stack. The ribbon is Caribbean Coral from the Tropical Summer bundle.


For the gift card holder on the inside, I used some old K Andrew Coffee and Tea stamps.


I used the Tea Box Holder Cutting File for the gift box. I decorated the box with Wild Orchid Crafts flowers, a Die-Versions Lacey Dots border die, a PoppyStamps Stitched Button die and a My Craft Spot banner die. The Orange Twine is from the DL.ART Shop.


I am entering this in the following challenges:

1) Darnell's NBUS #5 - NBU Cutting Files


Now it's your turn!! Head on over to DL.ART to see the amazing projects my design team sisters have created for today's challenge!! Then link up your Coffee, Tea or Any Drink project!! I can't wait to see what you create :)

  47. Love these - since I'm a Latte fan! Loads of color & texture, and wonderful embellies & design. Also love that you're sharing the fuse tool (which I bought some time ago, have yet to use). You'll love the Misti, and I'll try to email (if I still have your info) and share a couple of tips we got today. Also check out Youtube - Maureen Wong. Hers are the best I've found. TFS &Hugs
