Coffee and Friends

A few days ago, when I was planning on going to the hospital to get my ankle checked, I was chatting to my friend K online about how busy A&E was likely to be. She suggested that if it was too busy, go to Starbucks and go back in an hour... assuming my friend T who was taking me to the hospital wouldn't mind coffee (they've never actually met), which surely not given she was a friend of mine!

Funny story... my friend T does drink coffee... but she didn't when we met a few years ago. In fact she hated even the smell... I would claim innocence, but I know I'm partly responsible for the turn around! And I'm rather proud of that! lol!



The card base if kraft, the stamp is from stampin up, stamped twice, one on design paper and cut out.

The circles are from the same paper pack which is The Good Life  from fancypantsdesigns. And of course a few gems, because gems.

This card was somewhat hampered by my cat stealing my seat when I stood up to pick my design paper, then sitting on my knee when I removed her from said seat... she's now sat on my foot stool. Apparently today she's going to be my little sticky plaster.

  2. A girl after my own heart....a cup of coffee is always a great idea. Coffee has a very powerful ability to turn even the biggest coffee haters into coffee lovers. Not sure how, but the I had the same experience with coffee myself. Loved the smell, hated the flavor, now morning does not begin till I have consumed a lot of coffee. Thanks so much for playing along with us this week at CC&S.

Have A Great Day

How cute is this wee pupper from digi doodle shop. I've had him cut out waiting for me to decide what to do with him for aaaaages! I finally coloured him with my promarkers and decided on this side stepper card. The various elements were cut on my cameo. The paper is from the Nit Wit Paws-ativity collection. I stamped and cut the sentiment by hand and added it to the tree with a bit of twine, to make it look kinda like a swing (and it does swing, side to side at least, lol).

On Your Special Day, Sister

My sister's birthday is coming up in a few weeks and I've been trying for days to make my brain work to make her card and finally I succeeded.  She's also asked for me to make her a dream catcher, so that's going to be a new adventure to try making one as I never have... oh well that's why youtube exists right?  I used an image from Sassy Studio Designs, coloured with my trusty promarkers. The papers came from Jen Hadfield's Pebbles pack layered on brown card. The sentiment/sister was hand stamped, unfortunately I have no idea where it came from! A die cut heart that's been loitering in my draw since goodness knows when and a few gems to finish it off.

Autumn...

The leaves and quote came from a set sweet and sassy. I used my cameo to fussy cut the leaves and cut the sentiment on the oval. The stars are wooden embellishments from my stash. And the paper is make and create. I added a few pearls. It's layered on a kraft card base.
