but first, coffee


Hello and Happy Saturday!  I'm looking forward to the long weekend, and have tons of Design Team work to do!  But first, a coffee card:


I'm such a fan of premade card bases...I buy them all the time.  The one I used in for today's card is from Impress.  It doesn't look like they have this style online, but they do carry some of their others.  The Essentials by Ellen Laurel Wreath is awesome, isn't it?  I layered 3 of them together.  I used a coffee cup + sentiment from the Oh Frappe set.  


My card was inspired by CAS(E) this sketch!

Gorgeous!! Love the extra dimension you added to the wreath. Thanks to you, I'm a big fan of premade card bases too. ;) I still have to order some of the ones you recommended awhile back. Kind of hard to find something around here as I do not have any local stamp stores.

Hope you have a wonderful & safe holiday weekend.

I feel like I never know if I am coming or going, Amy. I see your cards on Instagram or on Facebook and I don't know if I have been to your blog! I am late...but never too late to comment! Great coffee card!
