I always love starting my Saturday with my Sisters at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers ... and after this week, my snark is feeling pretty strong. The theme this week is U is for Upcycle (Earth day is April 22nd).
We often order coffee from local roasters across the US, and one of our recent purchases from Trade Coffee (Sightglass) came in this box that had awesome coffee drawings on the inside. I didn't know what I was going to do with it ... but I new it was cool enough to save. So today I die cut two STAMPlorations Crazy Double Running Stitch Nesting Rectangle Dies from the box (the reverse side was Rust, which was perfect for the Color Challenge at Just Us Girls). Running the cardboard also helped flatten the cardboard slightly for better mailing.
When I need snark ... and coffee ... there is no better stamps than those by the talented Becca Cruger (The Damsel of Distressed) at STAMPlorations - these are from her Dark Coffee Set from the Grins by Becca Cruger line. I stamped the lady on the Stitched Nesting Tag from STAMPlorations.
If you like these fun stamps, they're having a sale right now on all stamps in their Spring Clearance Section. I finished with a trio of Brown Eyelet Outlet Enamel Dots.
and here are those fun Just Us Girls Colors.
I'm also linking-up at the STAMPlorations Anything Goes Challenge.
Love this, Stef! What fab packaging and a great way to use it. Thanks for joining the sisters for this challenge, Jo x
