Express-ing My Gratitude--Coffee Lovers Blog Hop #11

Here's my final card for the Coffee Lover's Blog Hop.  It has been such a fun week making coffee--themed cards.  For this card, I tried my hands at water coloring and the bokeh effect.  I didn't do so well with the bokeh.  My white pigment ink needs to be replaced by a better product.  (Darn, I'll have to go shopping!)  I used a new coffee stamp set from My Favorite Things--Perk Up and a really old stamp set from Fiskars.  I learned a lot from this early attempt.  Can't wait to try again when my new ink arrives!  ~Debbie

    SOMEBODY had to go and break the 500 mark, didn't they?! I'm like Mr. Monk... Now we need another 500 just to keep it even. hahahaha!

    Love your fab background! Is that embossing over embossing? Cool!

    So sorry that you had to go shopping....lol! You should see my list! Even though the bokeh didn't work out the way you wanted, this is still a beautifully watercolored card. It's been great to see all your cards; this one especially! Bev
