2 Cards Featuring the White Rose Crafts May Barista Blend Kit

Good Morning, I've got 2 cards to share with you today that I created using the home May Kit White Rose Crafts has coming out called Barista Blend. 

That's right, WRC has gone coffee crazy for this truly amazing kit, and if you love crafting in a coffee theme, you're going to swoon over it just like I did! (There's only one left as I write this post, so you better get that order in!)

May 2019 White Rose Crafts "Barista Blend" Limited Edition Kit

I immediately fell in love with the hexagon washi tape included in the kit, and I am notorious for buying tons of washi and never using it, so I was determined to use this one, so I grabbed a panel of 4 x 5 1/4 inch white cardstock and added washi stripes to create a really cool background. Then I took one of the sheets of paper from the included Echo Park Coffee paper pack and trimmed off the coffee shop border strip at the bottom, trimming the center section to the size of my 4 inch panel, and cut a vertical strip of coffee cup print to 1 3/4 x 5 1/4 inches. I adhered the coffee cup strip in the center of my card panel with Kaisercraft 1/4 inch Double Sided Tape. Then I adhered the coffee shop border at the bottom using 1mm Woodware Foam Mounting Tape.

Next I popped out one of the frame embellishments from the included 12x12 Sticker sheet and cut a sentiment square from one of the cut-apart sheets included in the paper pack. I adhered the self adhesive frame to the top center of the panel and then added the chalk board sentiment with 1mm foam tape for more dimension. I added the whole panel to the front of the brown 4 x 5 1/2 inch card base included in the kit with the same 1mm foam tape.

The exclusive Doodles Paper Playground Caffeinated Sparkle Blend included in the kit added a perfect sparkly embellishment. For a final touch, I added some shimmer pen to the frame & a few of the elements in the cafe border strip.

To finish the inside of the card, I selected a pretty floral print from the paper pack, cutting it to 2 1/2 x 3 3/4 inches. I chose a sentiment sticker from the included sheet that I thought coordinated with the one on the front and adhered it in the center of the paper. I adhered the whole panel to the inside center of my card and added one of the cute, pink, mulberry heart embellishments, also included.

I knew I wanted to use the adorable Doodlebug stickers included in the kit for my second card. I chose a black and white coffee cup print from the paper pack as my background, trimming it to 3 3/4 x 5 1/2 inches and adhered  it with double sided tape on a 4 x 5 1/2 inch, light blue card base I had left over from the March kit. Next, I cut down a piece of the solid red paper from the paper pack to 2 1/4 x 2 1/2 inches, mounting it on a piece of white cardstock, 1/8 inch larger. I adhered the Doodlebug stickers to this small panel and adhered it to the bottom left corner of my landscape card base.

Then I chose 3 sentiment stickers from the included sheet that I thought went well together. I mounted the two banner shaped sentiments on white cardstock, leaving a small border and adhered them to the card, tucking them under the edge of the coffee cup panel. I adhered the third sentiment sticker directly to the card, centered above the coffee cup panel. For some sparkle, I scattered around a few sequins from the included Sparkle Blends & added a touch of shimmer pen to the white cardstock borders.

On the inside of the card, I took a 1/2 inch strip of the same paper I used as my background and adhered it to the back, center of one of the rectangle sentiment stickers from the kit. I added adhesive to the back of the strip and adhered the whole thing across the card, tucking the sentiment sticker into the bottom right corner.
