Happy Friday y'all!! Today is such an exciting day - the design team over at Coffee Loving Cardmakers are joining up with Fun Stampers Journey for a collaborative blog hop! Wheee!! You should have arrived here from Robyn's blog. If you are just popping in, be sure to start at the beginning of the hop HERE
I was so excited to receive an AMAZING bundle of goodies to use for the hop! Thank you so much Kim!
For my first card, I used the awesome stamp set, Coffee Helps and the matching dies! I cannot tell you how much I LOVE this bundle...it will be used A LOT!
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:
That's it for me today - be sure to hop on over to Becca's blog HERE. Again, here is the link to the beginning of the hop if you have just popped in today - CLICK HERE.
