Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop - Final Day!


Friday, already?  I was able to post one card a day during the hop.  I wish I could have made more projects, but there just isn't enough time in the day to get everything done!  I noticed there were several crafters that way exceeded daily postings ----> YAY!

Okay, let's get to it, eh?!

I always make it way too difficult to pick my supplies for hop cards.  I want to showcase so many of the Super Sponsors but it isn't always easy to do that.  Here's a post that captures a couple different Super Sponsors.

First up is Lawn Fawn:


I combined the Stuck on You set with the Love you a Latte set!  With a smidge of masking it all works pretty well together, don't you agree?

love you a latte

stuck on you

Lawn Fawn is one of our Super Sponsors!  Link up for a chance to win their Lawn Fawn Gift Pack!


Do you see the tiny heart enamel...oh I miss Chickaniddy Crafts!  Check out the sheen on that gorgeous cardstock...I LOVE it.



My green cardstock base is from Impress and it is Bazzill's Fairway. It's incredibly beautiful and really, I wish you could see the sheen...it's amazing.


Impress is a Super Sponsor!  Link up for a chance to win an Impress clear stamp set!



The inks I used on the cacti =  Hero Arts Ombre:

tide pool to navy

Lime to Forever Green

lime to forever green


Light purple to grape juice

Hero Arts is one of our Super Sponsors!  Link up for a chance to win a $25 Hero Arts Shopping Spree!


Whew!  Lastly, I spotted that Kim Heggins used Strathmore Mixed Media paper...we exchanged some emails and here I am, using the Mixed Media pad that I squirreled away that I received from the fabulous Tonya of The Heart Desires ---> who also happens to be a Super Sponsor!  Link up for a chance to win a $20 Gift card to her shop!  Thanks ladies!!!!



Okay, that's all for me today on the blog!

Love your card. And those ink colors are the bomb. I have the brown but want every color they are awesome. I don't have these two stamp sets so they're going on my wish list too.

I could swear to have left a comment here... This card is so stinkin' cute, love how you combined the two stamp sets. Knowing your love for all things coffee, the sentiment is hilarious and so very true at the same time! And now I'm "hearing" Richie :).
