SFF Morning Cup is "Tea"rific!

Hello, Friends!

This is the card I made for today's Sketch Frenzy Friday challenge.  It was my turn to make the sketch and this is what I designed. 

Hopefully, it is simple enough and versatile enough that it will be easy for everyone to follow.  If you've never shared a card with us based on one of our sketches, we'd love to have you join us! 

Happy Stamping!

Morning Cup and the New Love of My Life

Now, don't panic. I'm not about to change the name of my blog to "Life with a Tassimo." However, if Frank could make me coffee in the morning, he would be perfect. He will stand beside me while my machine does the work, though, so I think he's doing the best he can and deserves credit for his efforts.

Meet my Tassimo. I love it. My Tassimo is a genius. It knows what I want it to fix me in the morning. You see, I put in fresh water and a little coffee pod. My machine reads the pod so it knows if I'm going to want cappuccino, espresso, tea, coffee, hot chocolate, or other drinks! I'm not a huge coffee drinker, but I love cappuccinos and lattes. So, in the picture above, my coffee maker is fixing me an espresso (which is how all lattes and cappuccinos start out.)

Then, it reads the milk pod and steams milk for my drink. Normally, I'd do it in a mug, but for your viewing pleasure, I did it in a glass one.

And there is my rich, frothy cappuccino. I have a wide variety of sugar free coffee syrups so I can make flavored drinks. My favorites have to be Almond Hot Chocolate (soooo goood!) and Almond Cinnamon Cappuccino.

So, in honor of my Tassimo, I have made this card. Although I don't make a lot of tea in it, it is definitely "tea"riffic.

Happy Stamping!

 

I used the following Stampin' Up products to make this card:

 

Morning Cup Stamp Set and Sanded Background Stamp

Cherry Cobbler, Baja Breeze, Night of Navy, and Basic Black Classic Inks

Very Vanilla, Cherry Cobbler, Baja Breeze, and Not Quite Navy Card Stock

Victoria 5/8" Crochet Trim

(I don't know why it switched to double spacing all of a sudden. Maybe it needs a cappuccino to get going.)

Perk Up!

Don't we all have those days when we need to perk up?

I'm kind of having one right now. I don't know why, but I'm tired today. So, I could use a little coffee with a lot of caffeine to help me "perk up." I limit my Starbucks consumption to those days when it's really necessary, but to honor my card, I think today must be a Starbucks day.

If you also need to honor my card with a Starbucks, feel free to use it as your excuse...

I mean use it as your inspiration. :)
