Eat, Drink & Be Merry...Caffeinated Creativity with Lori

Happy Wednesday everyone! It's my turn to post on the Coffee Loving Cardmakers today and I am so excited to bring you a Christmas-in-July post!

This past weekend we had a little bit cooler, at times rainy weather, so I was in the mood for making a Christmas in July card LOL...While I *do* like Spring, Summer and Fall, my ultimate favorite season is Winter. Yes, I know, some of you are going to throw things at me but it's the truth! I was going through some of my older stamps and I came across this cutie-patootie and just HAD to color him up!

    

 This cute image from C.C. Designs was stamped on Copic paper and colored with my Copic markers and the sentiments are from Reverse Confetti

 

 I added a snowflake and some pearls and called it good! I think I love the non-traditional colors of this card and that I could mix a coffee image with some Christmas sentiments!

  

 Thanks for stopping in today to see what I have been up to! Have a wonderful, java-filled day! Cheers!!

Aren't those cups ADORABLE?! And the sentiments in this set are so fun! 

For my 2nd card, I used Coffee Helps stamps and dies once again and added some pretty Fashion Silver pearls and a wooden HELLO word bubble:

I stamped the group of beans randomly with Crumb Cake ink to create a cute background and created the fun focal panel with a a cute pink mug:

I just love the fonts in this set - so fun!! And the wooden word bubble was the perfect finishing touch:
