National Coffee Day - First I Drink the Coffee

Good morning! I'm happy this morning to be joining in the fun for National Coffee Day - who knew there was such a thing? While I'm the only one in my family who doesn't care for coffee (I'm more of a tea gal!) - I still enjoy the smell of coffee, and watching my hubby and daughters enjoy it!

There are lots of giveaways and fun to found today - you can find all the info on the Coffee Loving Cardmaker's Blog HERE - and info on the Lil' Inker Designs giveaway up for grabs HERE on the Lil' Inker Designs Blog.

Here is my card to share today:


For my card I actually did a bit of creative cutting with my To Go Coffee Cup Gift Card Holder Die, using just the front of it to make a large element for the front of my card! I die cut it with some fun fall pattern paper, kraft cardstock, and white cardstock for the lid - then stamped a sentiment from Coffee Talk 2 Stamp Set on the front, and added a few white enamel dots.


For the background, I die cut my fall pattern paper using Stitched Mats: Rectangles, then matted it in some kraft cardstock before mounting on a white cardbase, tying on some jute string, and mounting my huge cup with foam adhesive over the top!


Here is the giveaway info from Lil' Inker Designs:
