Just Because

Happy Tuesday!!!
I know I am doing a late post but I had to share this card I made with this new stamp set by Technique Tuesday it is their Garden Society stamps. I just love these stamps so pretty cannot say enough about them!!!
For my card I started off by dry embossing my card base it has been along time since I have used my embossing folder really need to start using them more!! I than stamped my image on watercolor paper and I used my distress markers to color my image. To finish my card added some burlap and twine.

Coffee Lovers Blog Hop


Happy Monday!!!
Super excited about today's post!!
There is a big blog going on today for all those coffee lovers out there!!
My favorite kind of coffee is iced coffee what is your favorite??

You can start the hop over at

             Chaitali's blog



Honestly when I started my projects I did not realize how many coffee related products I had so that being said it was really hard to decide what to use for my cards and to just limit myself at 3 cards LOL!!!


 For my first card I used Prima's Coffee Break collection so fun and pretty!!
 For my next couple cards I used the Simon Says Stamps card kit seriously this could not have come at a better time an amazing kit with fun stamps and paper!!!
Hope you enjoyed my projects and I cannot wait to see everyone else's coffee creations!!

Enjoy the rest of the hop!!!
