I hope you are all having a great week. My week has been very fruitful and I have gotten so much done that I am actually ahead on school work for once! Can you believe it? This never happens. Not because I am procrastinator, but there is just always too much to do to be a week ahead...especially near the end of the semester.
Today's card is made using the NEW Cricut America Alphabet cartridge that comes pre-programmed in the new E2 Cricut Expression. This cut was definitely one that called to me. I love a good cup of coffee and this cut just says cup of love to me!
I used Close To My Heart paper. |
I cut the cup of coffee out at 3". |
This stamp is from Papertrey ink. |
The ribbon is also from PTI. |
I will see you all back here tomorrow!
Have a great Thursday!

This is a cute card Melanie.... I like the colors and I don't drink coffee but can see it as a cup of hot cocoa! :O) TFS
Oh I love this, Melanie! What a great card. I send cards to my grandmother as often as I can, as she's in a nursing home, and she would adore something like this. Thank you for the inspiration!!!
Glad you have time for that coffee! For me, it's tea! Each our own - he he he! Happy to hear you are ahead in your work, too. That's something in itself with all you do!
Thanks for sharing. Have a great week!
Blessings, Donna

Such a cute card. I love the coffee cup. Thanks for the daily inspiration. :)
I have to have my coffee every morning, and this card would show someone who is a coffee lover, how much you care. Great card. Simple sometimes says more.
Great card, love the colors!! And I agree, you can't beat a good cup of coffee, so this card is perfect!
Cute card - who could possibly have a great day w/o a big cuppa coffee to start it off? Congrats on being ahead in your school work. I don't know how you do it all!!!
Funny thing--I love the smell of coffee, but not the taste. I'm a tea girl. Regardless--the card is very "perky".
I'm helping my grandson make a banner for his First Communion...please inspire me. I haven't had any luck using my Cricut to cut the Foamie sheets or felt. I changed the blade and pressure to #5, but still no luck. I may just have to resort to the old fashion scissors. What a bummer! But I still love your posts everyday.
Very cute card!! TFS!!!

That is a cute card. I love the colors you use. It makes you want a nice cup of whatever. Thanks for all your inspiration as always
Cute card...TFS! I'm happy for you to have caught up on your school work...I remember those days and fully understand the stress involved. How do you do it all? Somehow we survive, don't we...(((HUGS))) and prayers as you finish up your semister. ;)

I am one of those people that you don't even want to talk to until I had had a cup of coffee in the morning. I just don't function without it so I love this card. I am looking forward to seeing more of the E2
As always your work is so inspiring. I loved looking things over with a nice, hot cup of java in my hand.
Thanks for sharing, friend.
Ooo...this would make a great teacher gift with a Starbucks giftcard! LOve it!

OMGosh, this is sooo cute!
You girls are so VERY talented. The designs are so simple but so special. What a delight to receive something like this in the mail from a friend.
What a great little card. Most of us love a good cup of coffee. This card just states the obvious.
I really love your cards and also the fact the you use the Expression. You are always very creative!! Thks for sharing!
What a great card. Simple and quick, just the way they should be sometimes!
is it wrong to want the machine just for the programmed cartridges???
I love the white "stitching" on the coffee cup. Thank you for sharing.
