SUMMER Coffee Loving Cardmakers Hop! Plus, Blog Candy!

It's time for all things coffee, tea and cocoa related, plus bring on the summer sunshine!  The quarterly blog hop from coffeelovingcardmakers.com begins today, hosted by the always lovely, Amy Tsuruta and her team.




My project today features a free digi from Stamplorations (cups) and a sentiment from one of their stamp sets.  You can grab those here and here (scroll down to find the digi).   I colored up my cups with Tombows and made colorful, tropical coozies for my cups out of scrap paper.  The coozies and lids are both popped up with foam squares.




Aren't they adorable?




I made my own background paper with Bristol Strathmore watercolor paper, Ranger distress sprays, TCW Stencils and Inka Gold.  I also inked up a white doily with distress ink and white splatters.


I hope you'll create something and join in.  There are over 50 sponsors who are giving away prizes as well.  The hop ends on 6/24/16 at 11:55 pm pacific time.  Scroll to the end of the hop post to find the Inlinkz button to link up.  Be sure and read the rules as back linking is not allowed.  Most importantly?  Have fun!

P.S.  I will be offering blog candy!  Winner's choice of a Starbucks $10 gift card or a Dunkin' Donuts $10 gift card.  Here's how to win:
