My bestie's birthday is upcoming and I made this card with a pocket on the front to hold a gift card so she can go get her caffeine of choice, get her day started right and hopefully have the patience to deal with the day to day annoyances.....I can say this about her, cuz we are basically the same person. What she is annoyed by pretty much is the same things that annoy me and vice versa, and for me..........I just feel like once I have the diet coke in my hands then everything is ok and I can handle things slightly better. Not completely better, but slightly......which is better than not at all! ;)
I made my card with stamps (Caffeine Addict) and die cuts (Coffee to Go) from Sugar Pea Designs, the background text stamp is from my stash and I don't remember the brand. I die cut the coffee cup and stamped the Caffeine Addict, heart and coffee beans, stapled my gift card pocket and added some NUVO drops in dark walnut. I used Distress ink in Ground Expresso!
I'm entering this card into the following challenges and the Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers blog hop
Sugar Pea Designs-monthly challenge
Simon Says Stamp Wed Challenge: use more than one stamp (background stamp, caffeine addict and coffee bean stamps)
This would be a sweet card even without the wonderful bonus of a gift card!
