Welcome back to to day two of the Fall Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!
For those of you who follow me, you know I always try to upcycle some coffee stirrers in at least one of my Coffee Lovers hop entries.
This on you can see HERE
And this one, in my pre-blog days, was posted HERE.
For today’s watercolor card I have incorporated some Panera and Starbucks coffee stirrers – the perfect fall combo!
I have a dear friend who often takes me to Panera or Starbucks for a cuppa’ when we’re out shopping. One of these gals looks a lot like her. The other looks kind’a like me… in a fun-house skinny mirror! lol! I think I’ll send this to her as a reminder of the fun times we spend together!
