Jessica and I enjoyed making card samples to show at CHA. Here is one that I made from coffee filters. A quick and easy project with a unique look…
The coffee filter is colored with Tsukineko’s Walnut Ink spray in Lilac and Cherry Blossom.
The edges are cut with pinking shears. The smaller pocket is cut from a 2nd coffee filter & then glued on top of the first one. Stamps used in this fun project are Flutterescent, Garden Borders, Merci Bouquet & Beaded Frames.
May God richly bless your day with layers of color,
Are you referring to summer CHA in Chicago? I think I will be there, too, Lord-willing. It would be fun to see you there!
I love the rich colors in your filter pocket card. It made me think of an old tapestry.
Interesting effects and concept -the mind is now going nineteen to the dozen with ideas….. Thanks for sharing this idea. Blessings
This is a great idea you clever girl! Like Maxine my brian is a workin! Thanks for sharing! Heather
Hi Laura – this is just fabulous and how creative are you! Our coffee pot doesn’t need filters, but they are definitely on the shopping list now – love it! Your are always coming up with the most creative ideas Laura – you inspire me my friend! God bless you! {{{hugs}}}
Oh and – love the images you used, they all work together beautifully! That is one of the many things I love about LOC – the sets all work together so beautifully – you ROCK!!
Hey Laura! Thanks for visiting me and pointing me to your blog and shop! Loved looking at all of your creations and stamps! When I actually have some money… or at least don’t feel guilty about spending what I don’t have… ha.. I will have to come back and see about making a purchase!
What a fun idea! Have awonderful day!
I love what you have done with those coffee filters! They are so beautiful! I love the deepness of the color, and everything you could do with them after they were dry. I wonder if they could be embossed, or if they would tear?
Thank you for sharing your beautiful work.
He IS Able,
