In the mail today, I received a surprise from a very sweet person...she wrote a lovely note in a card with a Starbucks gift certificate! It was totally unexpected, but really made my day...a gift of caffeine and kindness!!
For my simple card, I gold embossed these lovely outlined leaf images from Simon Says Stamp's One With Nature set. The two cup images and sentiment are from a couple of wonderful sets from Right At Home: Cup of Joy. I then stamped the One With Nature images onto the cup and the sentiment onto the base.
Thanks to these challenges for the inspiration:
This is so pretty! I used one of my Right at Home stamps today on my blog too. Aren't their stamps great? This is perfect for our "Easy as 1,2,3" challenge at Cards in Envy. Thanks for joining us!
