Life Happens, Coffee Helps

 Hello!  I have not had a lot of time to craft lately and when I do have time, I am sadly lacking in creativity.  When I saw the post for the Spring/Summer  Coffee Lovers Hop, it was just the kick to get me going.  Although we finally had some nice, spring weather here, I spent some time in my craft room making cards for the hop.




Although I have quite a few coffee themed digital stamps and stamps, I used the hop as an excuse to purchase this cute owl on a coffee cup from  AlexShopsArt on Etsy.  The Echo Park Coffee and Friends 6x6 paper pad made these cards together pretty easily.










I am working to make a number of cards to send to a senior community.  I sent a care package before Christmas and hope to another one ready to send soon.  (If you would like to send cards or notes, please click here for the details.)  I'm sure some of these cards will make their way into the care package.

Don't forget to link up your creation and hop along with the Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Hop for lots of caffeinated inspiration.





Thank you for stopping by!

Cheryl

Hey, Cheryl. Thanks for hopping over to the Bunny blog. I love your cute owl image with its nightcap on. The sentiment is great because that is my husband's motto. I don't understand how he can sleep at night. Caffeine is his fuel.

Your card is great and I love the colors. [Bunny]

This is absolutely wonderful!! And I do these card donations twice per year to these senior centers too. I think our little bit helps so many people when they can't always see their loved ones!
