Here's a gorgeous image from Limited Runs including some stunning lace from Turkiye. Did you all see the announcement in winter? Tukiye has formally changed their name, they are to no longer be referred to as "Turkey." I know I have talked about that on my blog before, but I usually refer to them in the proper, Turkiye. Just a little fun fact for the day.
This stamp is called Cuppa Love and you can find it on Limited Runs page HERE. There's a whole page of stamps perfect for making cards for the contest over on YSBP.
Also, I have had a couple of people in their questions ask me what I use to attach the lace to my cards. Since I have been doing it for years, I have tested basically everything so what I will say is absolute best is Aleene's Clear Gel TACKY Glue. Make sure you get the clear gel. Aleene's also had a regular tacky glue, you don't want that. I buy the clear gel in pen form (glue in a thick pen shape dispenser rather than a bottle dispenser), it comes in a one or two pack. Works like a charm.

Hello
I use digi stamps a lot, because I can adapt them to the card sizes. Your card is very beautiful you always manage to add lace with elegance, it is your characteristic that makes you unique Happy scrap!! Taty
Love this card the image is great I love the sentiment and of course the lace is beautiful. I do use digital stamps but not a lot.
Lovely card Holley and I use digi stamps a lot...XX
Love ur card. I have not used digi stamps one time. Would love to but can't figure out the proper measurements lol
Cute! I don't do digi stamps.
Your coffee card is gorgeous and I so appreciate the tip about the glue you use to adhere your beautiful lace - thank you! Also appreciate the info on Turkiye as I missed it previously; sometimes I go for months without blogging. To your question, yes, I use digi stamps! Enjoy your day!
Great coffee card! I love the colors!
I don't use digi stamps. I am not great with the computer and just can't get the hang of it....
I have a few Limited Runs coffee stamps. Maybe I'll get to another card today. I do use digi stamps.
Love this coffee themed card! Your colors and lace make it a great St. Patrick’s Day card, too! I don’t use digi stamps.
Gorgeous card! Love the great sentiment (& the different fonts) and of course, the lace! I do not use digi stamps since I do not have a program to resize them.
A lovely note Holly. I usually use digi stamps.
Beautiful card Holley! I love the green. I used digi stamps for some of my Christmas and Halloween cards last year. I don't have a lot of them so don't think to use them. I'm going to check out the company you used for today's image.
Oh, my fave green colour card.. :)
No, I don't use digi stamps..
Beautiful card !!
Sorry, I can't use digi stamps 'cause I have not a printer..
Fabulous card! I love that it gives a nod to St. Paddy's day but can be used anytime. Thanks for the tip on the glue to adhere lace. I don't use many digi stamps. I have some but never think to use them.
Super cute. I do not use digi images.
Such a lovely coffee cup! Thanks for sharing how you adhered to your pretty laces on your projects!
I don't play with Digi!
This looks like it would be a good card for St. Patrick’s Day! I have not used digi images yet! Not sure how to do them.
I didn't know that about Turkiye. Thank you for letting us know.
I like green and brown together. Great card.
I don't really use digi stamps.
Yes. I am using digital stamps.
I use Digital Stamps! I like that you can resize! Fun fact about Turkiye!
And darling coffee card!
I've noticed your references to Turkiye but hadn't realized they officially change it until now.Went online to read all about it after I saw your post, and it makes perfect sense. As for digi stamps, I still don't have a replacement printer so don't have an easy means of printing them.
Thanks also for your tips on gluing lace. I have the Clear Tacky gel, but didn't even know it comes in pen form.
Adorable image and card. I have several digi stamps saved on my computer but I prefer to use clear or rubber stamps.
What a beautiful card and a lovely sentiment. I do use digi stamps as a last resort. I rather feel those stamps in my hands! <3
Great card! I use lots of use DIGI Stamps!
Not usually a digi stamp user, but yum that coffee card looks so good..and so relaxing!
Darling card, fabulous lace! Thank you for being explicit about the glue!!! Yes, I do use digital stamps but not super often. The other types are so accessible for me. I kinda recently got a newer computer, so I need to transfer mine off my old one, which has an outdated operating system. Soon!
Wonderful image and colours. Love the lace.
I'm not big fan of digi stamps, but I use them at time to time.
Valerija xx
so great card!
yes I do use digi stamps!
Lovely sentiment!
I have not used digi stamps much in the past because I had no printer. I treated myself to a nice eco-tank printer last year though, so I could now use them I suppose. I need an external hard drive to store such things though, and I don't have one of those yet.
You work so well with digi stamps Holley, but I'm not an expert at coloring so I don't use them.
Oh, thank you for this fact about Turkiye.
Great colour combo, I love all the green.
Yes, I use digital stamps but I prefer clear stamps.
I love your coffee card and I do use digi stamps!
Always love coffee makes. Do not use very much of digis stamps.
Cute card.. I don't use digi stamps...
Love love love this card!! I use digis very sparingly now that I'm not required to use them for design teams. I don't have the greatest printer anyway! (And I spent a fortune on that thing GRRRR)
Oooh, love the green and chocolate colour scheme. Gorgeous card. Nope, I don't use digi's. Hugz
I still don't use digi's. Probably never will. Love the card, the brown lace is perfect with this image.
Great card-Yes I like use digistamps.
What a wonderful coffee card! Beautiful colors and shading!!
That is interesting about Turkiye...I had no idea. Thank you for that tidbit.
Also thank you for sharing how you attach your lace. Do you put the glue on the lace first and that put the lace on the card or do you apply the glue to the card and put the lace over it?
Digis???....No, thank you. The few times that I have felt compelled to use a digital image, it took me literally an hour of wrestling with my computer and printer to try to get a decent print out. Ugh. Not for me.
