QACAS Mocha Latte Coffee Madness!

Well, hello!

I didn't expect to be here today. There I was just enjoying my morning coffee, basking in the glow of a warm and well-received NBUS Challenge when I received a deluge of blog post notices regarding a Coffee Lovers Bloghop taking place today on National Coffee Lovers Day! Perhaps the tea lovers have their own day? I hope so!

Well, shucks, I sputtered. I had totally forgotten that a friend had sent me an invitation to join this hop several days ago via Facebook. I woke up the hamster, which is always risky. I won't go into it, but it's not pretty, especially after he was up late two nights in a row working with the Randoms. Talk about coffee drinkers, those two people must have it running through their veins!!

In any revent, me and Hammy are never ones to shrink from a challenge, so we quickly made this:

And I mean quickly! I took a fresh piece of linen PTI paper from the hall linen cabinet and made a card base. I took a fresh piece of vellum from the curtain cabinet and embossed it with a NBUS Sizzix e/f after inking it with SU "close to cocoa" ink. The inking didn't really work so I then colored the vellum on the back with a Memento "desert sand" marker. I added a NBUS sediment from PTI "Scentimentals" and the coffee beans stamp is from Stamps by Judith.

Okay, kids, it's a hop, so hop along. Here don't forget to take a biscuit . . . ! 

There are lots of prizes so run and make your own QACAS card!!

I think my card quantifies for the current Less Is More challenge of "Mostly Words."

And thanks to a kindly whisper in my ear from a friend, I'm also entering this in the Inkspirational challenge where the theme is "Beverages/Drinks."

Enjoy your day! No, seriously, enjoy.  LITS!* 

As always, thank you for coming by to visit the Playhouse and special thanks to you if you take the time to leave a comment and/or join as a follower! Please let me know you came by, so I can be sure and return the flavor!
