Coffee Loving Cardmakers Hop

Coffee Loving Cardmakers!


Amy and Chaitali have done it again; another super fun Coffee Hop!  I have had the pleasure of meeting [and stamping with] Miss Amy. This photo is from my last visit to Seattle and the stamper's get together.  She said to me "You are tall" -- sorry Amy, you are just short, I'm only 5'4"!

She is just as amazing in person as she is online, and, she is addicted to coffee ;)  

These hops always generate a ton of players and I am one of them.

I used a new [to me] Hero Arts stamp set, Need Caffeine.  To be honest I am not quite sure I like the way the cup stamps, but it is coffee, and it does work for the hop :).  I used the sketch from CASE(E) this Sketch #112.  Added to AtoZ Scrapbooking Challenge too; embossing.


I am heading over to Coffee Loving Cardmakers blog to check out all the other entries.  I have so much fun on these coffee hops -- there is lots of inspiration for future cards, and always awesome chances of winning something from one of the sponsors!


Thanks for stopping by~
