Time for Coffee!

Hello, coffee-loving fans! I’m a guest designer this month at Coffee Loving Paper Crafters Blog  You can follow me on Instagram @melissaoeters and find me on Facebook as thecolorqueen.

Today, I want to share the fabulous coffee mini album I created. Scrappy Boy Stamps offers a Coffee Mini Album die set that makes it incredibly easy to assemble this album. The set includes all the necessary pieces, and they cut beautifully. If you decide not to create a mini album, no worries—you can easily use the die set for other paper crafting projects.

I wanted the coffee mug to be a focal point, so I created a little pouch to hold coffee shaker elements. I used the We R Memory Keepers fuse tool along with a scrapbook page protector for this. I cut out the coffee cup shape from the scrapbook protector, then used the fuse tool to seal the sides together, leaving the top open for filling. Once filled, I fused the top closed, added the other mug die-cut pieces, and glued it onto the album.

I used ribbon to bind my album together, and this does allow you to flip to the other pages if you wish. 

Now it's time for a coffee break!
