Fall Coffee Lovers Blog Hop



I'm joining the fun at the Fall Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.
Have you seen the gallery? It's filling up fast with so much java inspiration!
Here's my card.


I scribbled some autumnal colors with Zig Clean Color markers on watercolor
paper then die cut the Memory Box coffee mugs. The base was made with
Zigs + water colored in ombré fashion.


The mugs were adhered, and the sentiment was embossed on the bottom.
There's a lot of truth to that sentiment, and words to live by, no?

Thanks for hopping by! Big thanks to Amy, Chaitali, and Kimberly
for another successful caffeine infused blog hop!


(Edited to add: Adding this to the Online Card Classes Watercolor Medium gallery
since I used Zig Clean Color pens for a majority of the card.)
