Hi, there!
It's time for the Spring+Summer 2020 Coffee Lovers Blog Hop! You can use coffee, tea, and/or cocoa images for your project! The hop starts May 22nd and runs until May 29th. Paper Sweeties has several wonderful coffee/tea/cocoa stamp sets available! I used one of my favorites....Life begins after coffee . We hope you join the hop! Lots of prizes up for grabs from many wonderful sponsors!
For my card, I started with a white card base and used distress inks of Broken China and Salty Ocean for the sky and water. I used Vintage Photo distress ink for the sand. All images are from Paper Sweeties and were colored with copics. Jake just finished surfing the fun waves. He is now cooling off with a refreshing coffee drink! Jake's swim trunks, surf board, and sentiment is from the set Surf's Up. The shells and star fish are from the set Mermaid Wishes. The palm trees are from the set Island Time. Wink of Stella was added for interest to the images. And, twine to finish the card.

The inside sentiment, which is from the same set as the coffee drink on the front of the card. It says...Life Begins after Coffee! Oh, to be on a beach somewhere enjoying a cold coffee drink...sigh.

What a cute and fun card with a great summer image! For me, life doesn't begin UNTIL coffee Ha! Speaking of.........I need to go get a cup and wake up now :) Enjoy your day and the coming season of summer!
ReplyDeleteJust finished my coffee and I enjoyed this card and am so envious of Jake having such a great time. Love his trunks and the colorful surfboard and matching umbrella. It would be wonderful to be at the beach. The closest I'm come is actually using "bleach" to clean everything. I'd like to remove the l and get to the beach to join Jake. Great card and I like how you decorate the inside too. Have a nice weekend, Maria.
