This is my card for CC669. Robin is our hostess and she has chosen daffodil delight,
berry burst, pool party and old olive for the color palette. Dessert Option this week is sparkle.
I needed some thank you cards for gifts that I received from my Pre-School students. I thought a card that had somewhat of a coffee theme would work for some since I received several gift cards for local coffee establishments.
My card is using the SC678 layout. Cathy was the hostess and she gave us a great layout for our cards. It worked out well for me.
My coffee cups are part of the CottageCutz Cocoa & Sweet Treats die. I cut them in daffodil delight and berry burst. Stamped my sentiment with the Love Letters set from Lawn Fawn in berry burst.
My background dsp is from the Stampin'-Up "delightful daisy" collection. The bottom rectangle panel is part of the Year of Cheer Specialty dsp also from Stampin-Up. It is shiny so dessert is included here and also with the wink of stella I added to the snowflakes.
I finished off my card by adding a few snowflakes to the top of the card. I did that to balance it out a bit.
Hope you can play along with us this week. Robin has picked some colors that will work well with lots of different card designs. Check out the rest of the color challenge design team for more inspiration.

There's so much to love in this card, Mary! All the cups look so appealing, but I'll choose the one with the cute marshmallow man. What an eye-catcher, and so much fun!

This is simply delightful Mary. You have used several of my favorite things on this card- gorgeous mugs filled with yummy cocoa, whipped cream (yum!) and marshmallows (yum again!). This is certainly a favorite of mine! ~Karen.
