#5 Coffee for Dad

This might be my last post for the coffee hop this week as I have a lot of things I need to work on around the house in preparation for the coming weekend.  But I wanted to share this card I made for the 2020 Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog hop at least. The logo information is along my side bar in case you want to submit a card. There are lots of prizes and this time you can use a coffee, tea, hot cocoa design for any season. So that might help promote more entries.


For this card I used a Creative Expressions embossing folder called Coffee Stains but instead of embossing with it I just inked it up and placed the design onto some Gina K. Designs Sandy Beach card stock. It worked like a stamp this way. I used Gina K. Designs Warm Cocoa ink too. The strip of  Gina K. Designs Blue Raspberry card stock was a perfect addition I thought to add some bright color to the sentiment which is also from Gina K. Designs. I punched out the scalloped circle to frame that wood chip with the cup design. The  wood chip and embossing folder were won from the last hop so there you see one can get some lovely prizes.

I hope you are having a great week and I thank you so much for stopping to visit.

God bless,
Verna
