Coffee Lover's Blog Hop-Thanks a Latte!

Hello Everyone, and welcome to the Coffee Lover's Blog Hop!  Thank you for stopping by!  
Truth be told, I really do not like coffee- never drink the stuff.  But I LOVE all of the cute 
stamp sets and sentiments that go along with the coffee theme and just had to join in the fun. 
There are lots of prizes donated by many generous sponsors, so, grab a cup of coffee, 
pull up a chair and enjoy the hop! 

You can start the hop here, at Amy Tsuruta's blog, and, if you would like to join
in the fun, you will find the linky for the Hop on her blog.

Edit- Yay!  We finally have sunshine today and I was able to get a much better pic of my Latte card.

Revised

original

I took inspiration for The Card Concept and sketch from Freshly Made Sketches~


                         
I used Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Pick Me Up Stamp Set- don't you just love the swirls of steam!  The stamped sentiment is from their Thankful Blooms Stamp Set.  The LATTE letters are die cut using alpha dies from MFT.  Love the versatility of the letter dies.
My coffee cup is Crumb Cake and the heart is die cut from brushed gold card stock, although you cannot see that here.  Please pardon the poor photo- gloomy weather and bad lighting are not a good combo!  I am hoping to get a better pic tomorrow.

How about some blog candy!
Many of the bloggers are offering blog candy.  Be sure to comment for a chance to win! 
I am giving away a Die-Namites Die to one lucky commenter!  


Be sure to comment by December 14th for your chance to win!  Please leave contact information in your comment in the event that you are the winner. 

A big THANK YOU to Amy Tsuruta for organizing this event! 

Happy Hopping!  

Lee Ann  :)
