Coffee Lover's Hop and Reason for a Challenge


Hello coffee and challenge lovers! Today is the start of the Fall Coffee Lovers Blog Hop and I'm so excited to be able to hop this time around!

This is a growing group of bloggers who love to sip coffee and tea while making up some crafty goodness, so why not combine them into a hop that includes both! Don't mess with our mugs or messes! LOL

Get all the details and hop list on the official hop site — 

Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog

With 42 super sponsors and more Flash Sponsors on National Coffee Day (9/29) it's going to be a SUPER FUN hop!

Here's my Fall coffee card. I started out with my favorite brown and red fall colors and then I ended up with a few splashes of blue, green and yellow!


My card is coupled with the new Mix-Ability Challenge on Splitcoaststampers that I'm hosting this week. If your interested in mixed media and nervous to get started this challenge is the place for you. Bookmark the challenge link and when you are done hopping the Coffee Lover's blogs, jump over to the challenge and see what it's all about. We are working 9-to-5 for this challenge!

Stamps: Coffee Talk Perfectly Clear Stamp Set, NK Studios Grunge (Stampendous)
Paper: Mixed Media White (Stampendous), Soft Suede (SU)
Ink: Espresso, Frost White and Cyan (Colorbox), Memento Tuxedo Black (Tsukineko)

Let's Celebrate Plain Jane Style!

There is an Anni-Verve-Sary party going on today! Verve Stamp Company is 2 years old! The hop started at Verve's blog , so come hop on board and see over 5 dozen projects that are sure to get your Verve on! I've been waiting for the right time to blog about this project and when the opportunity came to join in the anniversary blog hop for Verve I knew it was time. My blog hop project today uses all Plain Jane Bible verses from Verve. I saw this project at Susan Roberts gallery on Splitcoaststampers and went to her blog to get the details . I decided to make one for my mother as a Christmas present...in 2008. Yep, I just now finished it and I have the blog hop to thank. Using sketches would have made this a whole lot faster. LOL The two cards shown in the picture above use the latest Plain Jane release for Psalm 121:1-2 (hanging on box) and Hebrews 11:1 (in front of box). And I'll give the details below, but first here's a slide show of the whole year. Hebr...
