Fall Coffee Lovers Blog Hop


I just discovered that the Fall Coffee Lovers Blog Hop started today too, so I went right to work in my craft room and came up with this card to enter into the blog hop. There's nothing like a good cup of coffee except a good cup of coffee while you're blog hopping!


I used my new layered Fancy Tea Cup die from PTI and paired it with the notebook paper. The sentiment is from PTI's Choose Joy. The moment I read it, I knew I wanted to stack some coffee cups up to make a card. The coffee rings were done by smooshing brown ink onto a piece of acetate and spraying it with water. Then I stuck the bottom of my Glossy Accents bottle into the brown ink and stamped it onto the paper. Pretty cool, how it came out!

I'm also entering this card into the Word Art Wednesday Challenge
Simon Says Monday Challenge
CASology ~ Circles

Have fun along the hop! Hope you find lots of coffee inspiration!!
Blessings~ Birgit
