Coffee Happy... Spring Coffee Lovers Blog Hop

Hello....

A BIG shout out to Amy and Chaitali for investing their time, energy and abundant creativity to bring us the awesome, amazing and, already, wildly popular, Spring Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!
Sponsors, prizes, oodles of inspiration...you name it; this challenge has it! Just check out the awesome graphic below for an idea of just how AH-MAZING this coffee hop truly is. After that, head to the gallery: only Day 1 and already 185 entries (186 if I get mine in immediately!)




The gallery's open until Friday, March 6th, so we have time to play, play and play!  Thanks so much, Amy and Chaitali; you girls rock!

Here's my opening card...a new drip textures stencil, my much-loved coffee die, a new W&W happy in red foil and ta dahhhh....I love coffee!  


Before I send you hopping along, I want to share the a link to the Brewed Daily:  What does your coffee say about your personality? infographic.  Super cool...

I drink my coffee black, which according to the infographic survey, that means I'm

  • straightforward
  • likes to keep things simple
  • quiet, but moody (oh yeah....they've got that right *grin*)
  • minimalist

Yes, quite accurate, in the grand scheme! Check out the link to see if your 'brew' is 'you'.

Thanks so much for dropping by; your visit and comments add sparkle to my day!
Hugs,

What a fabulous card Carol! I love your coffee splatter stencil, so cool looking! And of course your MCT coffee cup to go is fabulous as well. I love the pop of red with the happy and heart. I wish coffee made me happy. lol So cool that your quiz answer is just so like you! When on the rare occasion I do drink a cup of coffee, I drink it with cream only. Coffee is just to bitter so I have to have the cream! lol Hugs, Brenda

Dana said...

Oh my !! Fabulous card!! I LOVE the stencil and the metallic red is a great pop of color!! Lovely design!!

Jacee said...

Thank you so much for the lovely comment you left on my blog, but would you mind if I pointed out to you that as you commented on my 'gorgeous colouring' I can't I'm afraid take any credit for that as it was a pre-coloured image, as are most of the images I use.
I hope you don't mind if I don't post your comment, I wouldn't want anyone to think that I'm taking any credit for colouring that I haven't done, I do hope you'll understand.
I very much appreciate you dropping by, maybe you could pop back and leave another comment, that would be great if you could, thanks once again.
Hugs Jacee
