Coffee Cups

Good Tuesday Morning! 

I am so excited as this is my very first Great Impressions Blog Post!  Whahoo!

I am starting the morning off right......with coffee of course!  My card has just the jolt you'll need to get your day started too!

This card will also be entered into the Challenge at Simon Says Monday, Coffee Or Tea?  (such a silly question!)  lol

 
I adore this fabulous border which uses the  Great Impressions Stamp Set G449 Coffee Cup Border.  I stamped it once and then added a coffee cup on each side by masking off the stamp.  Images colored with Copic Markers.  I found some creamy coffee enamel brads in my stash and a lovely bit of sheer ribbon for accents. 
 

Inside I used the sentiment stamp F189 Nicest Perks.  Masking off the border stamp again I added a cup-o-Joe to the sentiment. 

Many a morning and afternoon have been spent with wonderful friends sipping delicious hot coffee, they seem to go hand in hand!

Thanks so much for popping in, I'm so glad you did!

Enjoy~~

  2. Your debut is so like you, marvelous! Good pick with the coffee cups and the inside sentiment. I too think of coffee as my social drink. That is, when I am not drinking wine. I wish you the most success in your newest role as a designer!
