Coffee Blessings

Welcome

I have been wanting to give some encouragement to someone going through a difficult time.  The Coffee Lovers Blog hop is the ideal time, as they love their coffee!


I deliberately kept it CAS as they are not 'fluffy' people. 


The two stamps above are from the  STAMPlorations Anywhere There's Coffee set.  The image was stamped with Memento Rich Coffee ink, and the sentiment with Ranger Espresso, and shaded with my Polychromos


The sentiment (also from STAMPlorations) was die cut in gold card, and on the card base, and the gold inserted into the base.

The white layer was then added to a soft brown card base, and both layers were edged in black ink to give some definition.


I stamped the ODBD Scripture Verse in Espresso in the left of the insert inside the card.

I am linking this to:

  10. Thank you for the words included in your card to your coffee lovers - so appropriate for me at this moment in time. 'God works in a mysterious way his wonders to perform' has never been more appropriate than just now. Thank You Maxine and thank you for your kind words on my log.

  26. Hi Maxine, brrr, a chilly one today. With my Peonie card I did the water panel first, die cut it. Printed, coloured and fussy cut the stamp from Beccy and adhered it to the panel.xx

  28. A perfect CAS card Maxine! Good coffee is essential :-)
    Would you believe my favorite coffee is the one I brew myself ... I only like the way I make my coffee, not a fan of starbucks or other coffee shops. So I am definitely a picky coffee drinker!
    Beautiful verse inside!
