November and The Coffee Lovers Blog Hop

  I don't know why I just love this hop.  I don't really make coffee cards, but it always makes me happy when I see the hop start!  

Check out the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop here.

I'm also entering the Christmas Kickstart Challenge # 56, which is all about using snippets.

I had die-cut this card base months ago and just didn't get around to using it until now.  I paired a wonderful coffee cup with a cute gnome and that wonderful striped paper.  The candy cane is part of the mug die set.   I only had a small piece of striped paper left and a little bit of red paper for the cup & candy cane, so I used what I could.  It's really cheery and I think much better in person than here.  

Close-up below.  The glittery die-cut is actually a snow flake cut up to fill the cup.
