Decaf coffee | D.Ann's Crafting Whims

Good morning, peeps and visitors! I’m so glad to finally be ‘plugged in’ again!! I was in rural Indiana with very spotty phone signal and the internet was down the entire time. Of course, what would you expect when the internet provider is OINC Wireless?!! When will it be working again? When pigs fly! LOL! I’ve got a lot going on, but at least I’m back to crafting on a limited basis… just in time to join the Fall Coffee Lovers Hop which started a couple of days ago.

While travelling, I picked up the coffee coaster from Cracker Barrel knowing it could be up-cycled into a great fall colored card.

Unfortunately some of us have been restricted to decaf coffee by our doctors. Poor us! It’s just not the same!! So I made a card for someone else who just had to give up caffeine…

These cats aren’t getting into any trouble on decaf! It’s a real drag going into caffeine withdrawal… Somebody definitely needs a hug!! : )

This is the first time I’ve made a circle card… so easy! I must do more of these!!

Supplies:

Neat & Tangled – Purrrfect stamps and dies
Spellbinders – Heart Circles & Scalloped Circles dies
Memento Tuxedo Black dye ink
Copic Markers: E00, 13, 23, 25, 29, 31, 33, 37, 74; R20; W1
