Coffee Lovers Bloghop!

If you are looking for my Creative Blog Hop Post Please Scroll Down or Click Here.

Happy National Coffee Day!!!  I hope you are sipping on a wonderful cup of java! I know I am (Italian Roast with Amerretto Creamer).  If you want to start from the beginning head on over to Chaitali's Blog for the main post.  

Now a little about my coffee history!!!  I have been drinking coffee since I was young...at that time I was probably the only one to actually bring it to high school. Most kids were like yuk! Eww! Coffee!  HAHA little did they know about the magical beans!!  Right now my favorite is Dark Roasts, Italian, French, Hawaiian, etc... I have a K-Cup machine so Tully's, Green Mountain and Starbucks are my favorite Brands.  The MOST AMAZING coffee I have ever had recently was at Coffee Underground in Downtown Greenville, SC. It was a Raspberry Latte, though it had a cooler name that I can't remember.  I was on vacation at a Scrapbooking Crop with my Besties!!  For the last tie bit..if I don't get my coffee...I do go all Godzilla on anything in my way!!! ;-)

Here's my card...it looks so delicious!!!

The Creative Blog Hop

Hey my lovelies!!!  I was chosen by my bestie Samantha Mann to participate in the Creative Blog Hop. You can see her response to this hop here.   This is designed to get to know me better and introduce you to a few other great creative people!  

1.      What am I working on now?

Currently working on Design Team Projects and I really need to start my bucket list book.  I decide to start crossing things off of my bucket list early in life. Therefore I will document them in their very own book! 

2.      How does my work differ from others in my genre?

My work is my own, I rarely look at a sketch unless it's for a challenge.  I do follow the trends, sometimes a little late. I do like to research techniques before I try them.

3.      Why do I create what I do?

I create because I love it!  I have always been crafty since I was little. Whether it was coloring, drawing or making necklaces.  I enjoy it and always will. 

4.      How does my creative process work?

I am usually inspired by a product. Either it's colors, the images, design....  I then go around my craft stash and see what else would work with the item...and go from there....sometimes one card could take me 3 hours....YES...3 hours...I am in no hurry to get it done...but I want it to be right.   

Now please head on over and check out these other creative lovelies!

A Hoppy Hello

Happy Monday!!!  Today i am here with a card for the Lawnscaping Challenge!  I feel like it has been forever since I played along.  I really wanted to get all inky with the new release so I decided to get a card done! 

There are faint snowflakes in the background, but they didn't photograph well.  ;-\ sigh technology. 

I'm gonna make this quick since I am injured at the moment and it's hard to type with both hands.  I'm ok though. Nobodys got time for injuries to interfere with scrappy therapy.

MFT - Campy Trees Dienamic

Welcome to the September Release for Newton's Nook Design's!!!!  This is such a GREAT release I know you are going to love it!!  Today we are showcasing Newton's Perfect Pumpkin! EAK!  Newton look so cute in that witches hat. 

Quick Tip:  I didn't have ribbon to match my card.  So I smooched some Distress Ink on a slick surface gave it a spray with some water and then dragged the white ribbon through it several times until it was all covered!!  BAM! Instant matching ribbon!
