Coffee Friendship

I hope you are having a wonderful Memorial Day. The last of our company left about an hour ago so now I can get back to my posts showing the projects I made for the 2018 Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog hop. 


I tried to use some more spring/summer colors for this card design. My cup and sentiment are from the Stampendous set called Coffee Talk. I stamped the cup onto some alcohol ink background paper I had made previously and since it was a glossy card stock it resembled a ceramic look. The Coffee die is one from Cutplorations the die division of Stamplorations. I used the negative of it and just mounted it over a piece of light green paper. I went with a yellow panel to place all the elements and then added it to a base card of light green. The flowers are some I had in my stash from years back so I used them by alternating two of the blossoms between a yellow and green one. The last thing I added was some gems in the center of each bloom.

Well, that is it for today. I think it is time to do some relaxing after this busy weekend. Next weekend we will have guests again and we will also be attending a wedding. And with doctor appointments and a birthday in the middle of the week I am sure not much creativity will be done. At any rate, I don't want to make a big creative clutter since we will be getting more company soon.

 So until next post, take care and forgive me for not commenting when you post as I am not getting notices anymore. I guess from what I have heard it is a blogger issue and therefore not a great deal we can do. Hopefully, things will soon be resolved.

God bless,
Verna

This is a festive card and very colorful for spring/summer. Take your time this week with everything going on and relax as much as you can before you start up again next weekend. You need to read the information in red on Darnell's blog. She tells how to make sure you get your comments.
