Your Kindness Warms my Heart!




Hi there!

I'm back again with a card for Tuesday Morning Sketches!  It is such an interesting fun sketch I couldn't resist playing along this week! 

This card will be given to our administrative professional at work.  Next Wednesday is Administrative Professional's Day, so I wanted to make a sweet card for Peggi.  She always makes the delicious hot steaming coffee in the morning to perk us up!:-)  She then makes another pot of coffee in the afternoon to keep us awake! But, she does a lot more than that and she is a good friend.  She retires in August and she will certainly be missed!  I have other cards I've been working on, so I may be posting again today or tomorrow.  Hope you are having fun in your little crafting world!  Thanks so much for visiting here today!  Take care, hugs!!:-))

Supplies:

Paper:  SU, Simples Stories
Stamp:  Fiskars
Ink:  SU(Choc. Chip)
Ribbon:  SU(Pool Party)
Button:  Basic Grey

  1. What a most appropriate and gorgeous card for your friend. I can smell the coffee brewing. She would have to have Diet Dr. Pepper for me, though. I love to smell coffee but hate the taste. Dr. Pepper is what keeps me going. :-)
    I love the little hearts and, of course, the dotted paper.

  10. Your friend is going to LOVE this card! Great colors--I especially like the blue bow with the big green button, and the way you layered the image layer over the dp is so interesting. And, oh wait...I just noticed the wavy stitching along the three panels with the hearts--AWESOME! This card is just fantastic, Maria!!! Great job! Thanks so much for joining us at Tuesday Morning Sketches!

  13. What a cute saying, paired with all those sweet hearts, Maria!

    I'm glad you get delicious coffee in the morning at your workplace. I remember when I was a working woman, in an office (pre-kids!), we had a coffee service that provided our coffee maker and bags of coffee. It was the worst, most bitter stuff!

  15. This card is just so, so cute! Love the colors and papers and LOVE your take on that sketch. The little hearts are so sweet and I adore the frame you made. The stamping on the colored cardstock is such a simple, yet eye-catching touch. I need to remember to do that more. :)
