Hello Friends, Welcome to day 30!! Oh my how time flies!! Before we get started hopefully you will be asking …. “will you do the 30 day challenge again?” Yes & yes !. A few of you asked about that mega hop… well I bit off to much with that and kinda ran out of time… Sooo sorry. The month really got away from me. At the very bottom of my post I have a super cool organizational giveaway!
I want to thank you all for your continued support, enthusiasm, inspiration, participation, and so much more. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You all really give me so much and I hope that I do a good job showing my appreciation.
So not only is it the last day of the challenge but, it’s the last day of my guest design on The Stamping Bella Blog for this month. (Last week she had a surprise giveway on The Stamping Bella Blog so be sure to pop over there to check and see if there is another one.)
On the last day I like to try to give you all something different so this time I am bringing back the Starbuck Cup Card!!! You can see the fall cup card that I did a year ago here?
In the video … besides cutting the Starbucks cup for a card …a few of the fine detail tips I share how I added enamel accents on the eyes, glossy accents on the nose and an embossing buddy to get a nice clean embossed sentiment.
Watch the video in HD here and a thumbs up is always appreciate if you like it. 🙂
As a bonus card I wanted to create a shaker gift card with my favorite Starbucks red cup. Star sequins are in the shaker mix and glued on the front of the card with some matte medium.
Anna Bucciarelli participates in the coloring challenges when she can and Anna’s talent has no bounds. Can you believe she’s the creator of this Starbucks cup…how cool right! You can check out her goods that she sells here and her IG here.
You can see the back of the cup peeking on on the inside. I used a white gel pen to add some faux stitching.
I thought the back of the cup would be fun to use on the inside to hold the Starbucks gift card.
Card Supplies and Links: Affiliate links may be used depending on the product.
Today I have a super fun Giveaway! How about getting organized for the next challenge. Totally Tiffany is giving away this set of organizers called “Desk Maids” from Totally Tiffany. Super cool!!! I know I can use something like this in my studio. I haven’t personally used these products but, they should look great to me. If you check out Tiffany’s web site here you will find lots of other organizationals type products too.
To qualify for the giveaway all you need to do is leave a comment & a random winner will be announced this Friday along with all the other giveaways. Good Luck
Thanks again for everything and see you Friday to announce all the winners. Feel free to keep uploading your coloring for the next few days.Thanks to Stamping Bella for having me as a guest all month. Thanks to Totally Tiffany for the great giveaway and a huge thanks to all of you. Much Love, Kathy

Best wishes

Thanks so much for your 30 day challenge…I looked at all the posts but still was not able to participate (I’m thinking it was because of the time of year…Thanksgiving/Christmas and all!! I really want to participate in one of your challenges when it’s not such a busy time!!

What a great idea to use a Starbuck’s cup for your card. I am not a coffee fan so I save myself lots of money by not going to Starbucks but I do have many relatives who are Starbuck’s fans. Love your little dog too. Just so cute. Looking forward to the next 30 day challenge. Awesome giveaway! Pick me. Have a great day!
Tina says
Kathy, honestly, you are a GENIUS!! This is the absolute, absolute best idea how to recycle those beautiful starbucks cups!!! I’m blown away!!

Well I can’t even begin to say how much I admire you, your work, and your talent! I bought a couple Starbucks right after they came out with the holiday cups and couldn’t come up with an idea of what to do with them. Your creativity is just off the charts and I hope some of it will seep into my brain someday! LOL!! I’ve so enjoyed participating in your challenge when I can and am looking forward to the next! May you have the most relaxing and enjoyable and blessed Christmas! Hugs!
Wendy says
That was a great 30 Day Challenge! I played every 2nd day or so until I had to go into the hospital for knee surgery. The colouring helped me stay calm for my surgery. I can’t wait for the next one! Thanks for all the fun.
FeM says
Amazing cards. This awesome challenge was fun and totally relaxing. Thanks for all the inspiration.
Nancee Purdum says
Oh these cards are so cute! I want to thank you Kathy for motivating me to color! I managed to color an image every day! I am so happy! I now have 30 images to turn into cards! I didn’t spend as much time at the computer at night. I used my time to color. I’ve had so much fun with this challenge. I have enjoyed seeing everyone’s coloring in the Facebook group and some images on Instagram. I thank you from the bottom of my heart! Wonderful challenge! I am looking forward to participating in your next one! Thank you!
Lucy Schmidt says
THANK YOU, Kathy (and all your helpful elves) for the great 30 day challenge. I wasn’t able to color every day, but found myself coloring for an hour or more when I was able, so I think I surpassed the combined total of 5 minutes x 30 days by quite a bit. I took coloring supplies on my Thanksgiving visit to see my brother, s-i-l & niece. My 9-year old niece always stays with me and my sister when we visit. She usually loses interest in my “big ideas” after a while, but I’d come out of the bathroom and find her watercoloring on more than a few occasions! She had a ball, especially when I showed her how to use salt to make interesting textures. She had a couple of meltdowns when something didn’t turn out like she wanted, but I told her about you and how you often make mistakes but things always turn out beautifully in the end. (Sad to say, she wasn’t entirely convinced, but carried on.) She was so excited to be able to keep the stuff I took. Another coloring monster has been created, thanks to your inspiration.
I saw several Starbucks cups designed from people all around the world at the local Starbucks shop not long ago. What a great idea to repurpose one of them into a gift card holder — and make it a shaker card to boot. You are simply the BEST in my book.
Get some rest. You deserve it after all your hard work which, I’m sure, none of us can really fathom.
TracyM #6773 says
THANK YOU for sharing your Starbucks CREATIVE AWESOMENESS Kathy!!!
THANK YOU for the AMAZING INSPIRATION and MOTIVATION you share with us all year long and especially during your 30 Day Coloring Challenges, I LOVE EVERY SECOND and LEARN SO MUCH 🙂
PS – please don’t include me in the prize draw, I’m international
SarahC says
Love the cards and the cups! What a great idea. Your coloring gives Nacho so much personality. Enjoyed this coloring challenge- did better than previous and look forward to the next. Thanks for all your efforts.
Gail Plaskiewicz says
Sob sob! Sniff Sniff! (Blowing my nose sounds too!) Cry cry! LOL The coloring challenge is all over! How will I live without the coloring challenge? I will get by somehow, someway. I’m glad to know that the same coloring blog on the same coloring channel (hey, a coloring channel! I want one on my cable system with you at the helm. Can we huh, can we? LOL) will be available soon. Girl, I can’t wait!
Now to comment on the wonders I see on this page. I see Stamping Bella! If you will look at all the things I posted tonight before your last page is published (sniff, sniff again) you will see some Stamping Bella. I get e-mails from them all the time! In fact, I posted some cards on their site and won a great stamp! I am so addicted to really cute stamps and ones that I can color and boy do both of those fit the bill with Stamping Bella. I always comment when I have time because I love what they do. It’s so cool that they have contests too. I was so shocked when I won, so I have to say how much I love your card.
Another shaker card and I must say even though I am not a coffee drinker and we don’t have a Starbucks in our town (the closest is over 1/2 hour away and who would drive that far for coffee anyway when we have Dunkin Donuts in town) I love that cup and I love your card. I so have to watch your video so I can learn to make a shaker card. I hope it’s not to hard to make but then the first card I ever made in a card making class that looked impossible wasn’t when it was explained and showed to me. Santa got me lots of stuff for shaker cards and cards in general. I’m going to miss your e-mail’s everyday. Thanks for sharing your love of coloring with all of us. I hope we do your blog proud.
Gail Plaskiewicz says
Forgot to say, the giveaway is amazing! I hope that I can win that because I could sure use it. Thanks for all the great giveaways! You are the best!
