Winter Coffee Lovers Bloghop 2016


It seems near impossible to get caught up and clear the mess (below). Two sympathy cards and one Christmas card needed to be made and mailed today. But I still wanted to get another card made for the Coffee Lovers Bloghop.
 This paper is a snippet and it is now all gone but I wanted to use it. I began by stamping a rather old stamp set from SU! onto three papers and then pieced together. The darker piece was stamped with the sentiment and I added some beans and some Wink of Stella. The designer piece was attached to white card stock and then the coffee cup was glued onto a piece of mounting foam. The placement of the cup was selected so that key words were visible and close to the beans on the paper.
