I wanted to try this coffee cup in pastel colors instead of warm colors and Bev's DTGD challenge gave me the perfect opportunity - except I did the wrong card! This one is actually for my first challenge. Can you tell I need sleep? I embossed it and watercolored with Summer Sun, Orchid Opulence, Tempting Turquoise and Lucky Limeade reinkers.

Lydia, I LOVE it! And I'll tell you why *giggle* First, I think all coffee shops should use this sentiment on their coffee sleeves, and secondly, I love the sunny, happy, yellow you chose to use on the cup. Here's a couple of factoids about the color yellow.
Put some yellow in your life when you want:
clarity for decision-making
relief from 'burnout', panic, nervousness, exhaustion
sharper memory and concentration skills
protection from lethargy and depression during dull weather!
I'd say this card is right on track for making us cheerful, and giving you the energy needed for the third day of wonderful Dare to Get Dirty Challenges. Love your card!

***Giggle fits in N. Texas!***
Oh girlfriend!! Thank you, thank you for this amazing giggle kick-start to my day! I'm glad my own coffee cup was sitting on the coaster instead of up by my face when I read your made-for-crackin'-up story though.
And yes ... your coffee cup creation is definitely a sunny delight as well!
