Fall Coffee Lovers Blog Hop & A Prize
By Jeanne Jachna


If you love to craft and you’re a coffee fan then you are in the right place!  Birch Press Design is a Super Sponsor for the Fall Coffee Lover’s Blog Hop!  It’s a way to celebrate two of your favorite things.. crafting and coffee!

You can get all the details here on Amy Tsuruta’s blog  Coffee Loving Cardmakers where you can get all the details on how to link up your own card!  Amy has lots of fabulous prizes to give away including a $20 gift certificate to the Birch Press Design Store!  To sweeten the deal we’re giving away  a second $20 gift certificate here on our blog!    I couldn’t pass up on all the fun so I made a card of my own with some wonderful craft supplies from the shop! 

I  started with a background of lace using the Fiori Cover Plate Layer A.    I wanted to add a bit of color but not have it take over the design.  I didn’t want the blue gold rimmed coffee cup to disappear into a blue background.

I inked up the top portion of the die cut with Tumbled Glass Distress ink.  Next I splattered it with water, and then some Broken China.   For the finishing touch I added a splash of white ink.

I added some Watercolor Wildflowers to keep the card feminine and to add some fall color at the same time.  The triple stamp flowers are stunning and look lovely in any color combination!

We’ve added lots of die cut words to the store including this Calligraphy Pop Thank You.  The “Morning Cup” is from Poppystamps (our sister company).   I thought a fun swirl of rhinestones would make for some amazing steam coming off that cup! 
Want a chance to win a $20 gift certificate to the store?  Just leave me a comment!  Let me know what’s your favorite way to start the day!   One random comment selected through Random Number Generator will be selected as the winner.  You have until 12 am US EST on September 25 to leave a comment and I’ll post the winner on September 26!

Finished Size 4.25 x 5.5″

My favorite way to start the day is with a 30 minute walk outside and then come in and have a cup of coffee (with some kind of wonderful flavored creamer….the flavor varies from week to week). 🙂 I also want to tell you how much I loved your card.
