Heather's Coffee Break Blog Hop

Good morning everyone!

Today is the day of Heather's Coffee Break new images release! I am so happy to be a part of this blog hop because Heather is such a wonderful lady and her images are just too awesome to miss!

If you came here by way of Carol (Stamps, Paper, and Ink) then you are on the right track. If not, start at the beginning with Carolyn (P.M.S. etc.) so you don't miss all the fun stuff! Heather will be giving away sweet prizes and all you have to do is leave a comment on each person's blog. Yep, it's as simple as all that!


Here's a card I made using the paper piecing technique. I embellished around the DCWV designer paper so that the piecing could be identified easily. This image is "Coffee Talk Full Length". I ink distressed the edges and propped Miss Sexy on foam dots while she sits there sipping her brew. I added a crochet flower and put an orange brad in the center (kind of matches the heart on the coffee cup doesn't it?). I add a shimmery bow and some pearls to keep that sassy appeal going.



This second card features "Guitar Girl" and as soon as I saw her, she brought back memories of when I was about six years old at a day camp where these young adults played the guitar and taught us songs like "Michael Rowed the Boat Ashore" and "If I had a Hammer..." - ahhh, memories. :-P So I enjoyed coloring her with my Copics, adding buttons and a plaid green heart to go with the DCWV designer papers. I added my favorite sentiment ticket and sang those songs in my mind. What fun!

You can see more of Heather's new digi's in her store (Fresh Brewed Designs). Just think of digital images like paper dolls. Coming from this beautiful and talented lady, these are some fun dolls to play with!

Okay, make sure you leave a comment here so you'll have a chance at the prize Heather has on her blog. Then your next stop will be over at Kelly's (Sandcastle Stamper).

Have fun! ;p

Your cards are so nice! I really should paper piece more. I think once I got the hang of it I'd be doing it way more often. Great job.
