It's Coffee Lovers Bloghop Day!


Are you playing?!!  Today begins the Spring Coffee Lovers Bloghop and I'm sharing one of my favorite cards I made with Paper Sweeties new March release sets:  But first, Coffee; Eat Cake and Coffee, Yes Please!

Paper Sweeties is one of the many Super Sponsors and giving away a couple of amazing prizes!!!  The FLASH PRIZE to be given to a random winner is a choice of one of the brand new March release sets!



 And there's more...another winner will receive a $25 gift certificate to the store at the conclusion of the hop!



 For my card, I used a combination of the new sets and used the no line stamping technique and watercoloring.  The background was created with Tim Holtz's brick stencil which I spritz with some chocolate ink in water.



I'm also entering my card in these fabulous challenges:
