Hello!
A friend at work has had a tough few weeks. Her two sons aged 20 and 16 were involved in a head on collision. Thankfully all involved walked away from the accident but it shook her to the core.
I decided to create a card to give her with her morning coffee.
I have used stamps and dies by CAS-ual Fridays (Cup of Coffee & Coffee Talk). I also used a stencil by Memory Box called Rings & Puddles and a texture stamp from HLS Mixed Media (can be purchased here).
I die cut the coffee cup twice - once with white card and once with patterned paper. I glued them together so it was more sturdy. I did the same with the die cut coffee word.
I was inspired by a card I found HERE
I would like to enter my card over at the following challenges -
Simon Says Stamp (Food and/or Drink), STAMPlorations Stencil Challenge (Anything Goes), Sparkles Challenge (Use a Stencil), The Unicorn Challenge (Anything Goes), Use Your Stuff (Tic Tac Toe - Circles | Your Favourite Colour (Blue) | Design Paper)
Thanks for popping in today :)
So cute. Thanks for playing along with us at UYS.

So thankful that everyone walked away from the accident. It makes a mother's heart ache when ever I see an accident or hear a siren. I know your friend is going to love this card. Thanks for sharing with STAMPlorations Stencil Challenge. Blessings
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear everyone was safe and your friend can breath easily since then and will always do; surely she's happy to receive you gorgeous card Kylie.
