Hello again! What? Two posts in a row..can it really be?? Yep, this is me trying to be more creative this year (my one word for the year if you must know) and trying to do a lot more stuff in my craft room than I did last year, and that is including layouts as well as cards.
My big crafty resolution for this year, is to start doing all those online classes that I have paid for and not attempted yet….I think I have 5 or 6 just from Scrapbook & Cards Today (who by the way launched their 365 Class for 2018! Here are the deets! ) This double-page, sketch-based class features exclusive PageMaps sketches, trendy techniques (all spelled out in photos), a monthly bonus card, cutting files, complete instructions and so much more. All taught by some of the biggest names in the biz…really fun and new this year, there is a monthly sponsored prize for doing the challenge! How fun is that????
Anyway, here are a couple of cards that I made for a swap on Splitcoast Stampers. The theme was Caffeine.

I finally broke open my Stampin Up Coffee Suite Designer papers and used the SU The Perfect Blend stamp set as well as the Kraftin Kimmie – One Cup at a Time. The sentiments are from Stampin up and Paper Smooches. I added in some small embellising on the first one, with some Nuvo drops. Since I was mailing these out, I wanted to keep them as flat and simple as possible.
Thanks for stopping by!
