I was able to make a card this morning before I started work – a perk when I’m able to work from home!
Today I made a card that fits 3 challenges:
Now I must admit that I’m not really feeling the warm and cozy for The Paper Players challenge as we’re having a week of hot weather here as we’re heading into summer but I never can say no to a good cup of java!

My twist on the sketch was using the coffee steam as the long vertical panel which I stamped in gold to suit the JUGS color theme and this next picture might show the turquoise, brown and gold colours better. I paper pieced the DSP for the coffee mug and coloured the coffee with the baked brown sugar ink.

Ingredients:
- Stamps – SSS ‘what’s brewing’ and YNS ‘thanks a latte’
- Inks – SU baked brown sugar, CPD black jack and Brilliance galaxy gold
- Misc – SU DSP coffee break and a doily
Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Hey there! I’m a card-making enthusiast with a passion for creativity that knows no bounds. Currently, I’m fortunate to be a part of four fantastic international card design teams, where I get to explore my craft and connect with fellow artists from all corners of the globe. It’s amazing how the world of card making can bring people together, and I’m constantly inspired by the diversity of styles and ideas that come my way.
Beyond my card-making adventures, I lead a pretty busy life in the learning and development field, where I work full time as a Learning Lead. I thrive on helping others grow and reach their full potential, and it’s a role that keeps me on my toes and constantly learning. When I’m not immersed in the world of work or crafting, you can find me on the netball court, coaching and sharing my love for the game with a bunch of amazing individuals.
So, whether I’m crafting, guiding professional development, or coaching on the court, I’m all about embracing lifes colorful and creative possibilities! Thanks for stopping by my corner of the web, and I hope you enjoy exploring my card creations and more.
