Thanks Michele for the PP challenge...I've had this card made and waiting to qualify for SOMETHING...I think this is the day for my morning beauty to debut!
I am a coffee snob, there I've admitted it! But when you've lived in the Starbucks sphere and even gone to COFFEE COLLEGE which the Star used to run...it's hard not to want the very best! To give you an idea of just how bad I am...we're on our third espresso machine
My Dolly Mama beauty was stamped on white (I hope the PP police willl forgive me!) I colored her with markers...check out her eye shadow! She is one a background of brown cs that has been stamped in coffee words from a liquid black gold set by SEE-D's. I placed her in front of the Marah Johnson wonderful coffee paper from Creative Imagination. I cut the top of the pot and embossed in clear and popped on dots. This is matted on dotted watered down white paper I colored with a copper gell pen. I cuttled the bayou blue mat. My garden of coffee cups was stamped on Basic Grey Stella Ruby paper in Brilliance coffee bean (what else) and embossed in clear. I added white puffy pen to the tops of the cups for the wonderful creamy foam I love so much!
Okay, now I'm ready to go prime the pump and make my espresso...bye for now!!!

Eye shadow? Well, I *thought* I'd seen everything in rubber stamping! tee hee! She can have my coffee- I'm a tea snob! LOL! But my favorite element here has to be your coffee garden- what a wonderful window into your colorful imagination! Fabulous! TFS!

That is such a funny sentiment! Goes perfect with that lady...she has some caffeine ISSUES I see...which I can relate to...whenever I get those surveys that ask me what my favorite food is I always say anything Starbucks! (If it has milk and sugar in it, then it must be a food, right?!) TFS!!
