Thanks for joining me again as I celebrate 20 years as a Stampin' Up! demonstrator with 20 consecutive blogs posts! It's late Sunday night so I'm close to the wire! Busy weekend – more about that later. First, I have 2 versions of this card to share today! Which one is your favorite? The cards are the same but the background is different. This first version uses one of the patterns of the Coffee Break Designer Series Paper as the background.
The second version I used the Marbled background stamp with Crumb Cake ink as the background. It reminds me of the swirled whip on top of a delicious hot beverage!
Both cards feature the fantastic Coffee Caffe Stamp Set / Coffee Cup Framelits bundle AND…I used a greeting from the More Than Chocolate stamp set to turn this coffee themed card into a mocha themed one (or it certainly could be hot chocolate).
The inside of both cards uses another greeting from the More Than Chocolate stamp set and is paired with the little woodgrain heart from the Coffee Cafe stamp set.
This photo shows the texture you get from the coffee sleeve die cut – it corrugates the paper when it cuts it out – like a real coffee sleeve!
I go back and forth as to which version I prefer – at the moment it is this one! Which do you prefer?
The last two mornings I got up very early to drive 1 hour and 45 minutes to a dog show in Southern Minnesota. A stop at Starbucks was crucial both days to help me make it through those early mornings (I went with Chai for my order both days)! This is Mercy, my 15 month old female Whippet – fresh from her bath last night (she is not a fan of baths but tolerates it once I find out where she is hiding!). She placed 3rd in the show on Saturday and 2nd on Sunday.
This is Winston, my 15 month of male Whippet – also wrapped in towels after his bath time. He placed 1st on Saturday and 2nd on Sunday. Thank you for stopping by today – please comment below as to which card is your favorite! Happy stamping!

Love them both, Sue but if I had to choose, I would take the marbled one. Goes with the whip cream on top but what I especially love are Mercy and Winston. They are simple gorgeous! Wish I could reach out and touch them. Can you tell I am a dog lover😊
Thank you so much! Mercy and Winston say they wish you could reach out and pet them too – they love getting attention! Happy stamping!
