This is my card for today's sketch challenge.
This is my story:
1. Welcome to the Coffee Lounge. The people that come here pretty much order a $10.00 souped up cup of coffee that pretty much wires them for the day.
2. I know that the sofa in a coffee lounge is just there for the ambiance, it has to be! (By the way, did you know that the word ambiance is not in my Webster's dictionary?)
3. I can't really see people spending much time lounging around sitting on the sofa drinking high priced, high powered coffee all day cuz let's face it, before long they are gonna be bouncing off the walls.
4. I put pillows on the sofa cuz I figured it would give them something to toss at each other while they are watching their friends jump up and down on the sofa! I hope the routty ones don't spot the mugs on the wall and start tossing those around. (I wonder if routty is in my Webster's Dictionary?)
This really fun little coffee set can be found here:

That's exactly what high priced, high test stuff does to me too!!! (Hey! Is coffee what gives you all your fabulous creativity?)
This card is wonderful and certainly looks like a trendy coffee bar! What a great stamp set!

Cindy, I want to come to your fabulous lounge and drink you souped up coffee and relax on your comfy sofa.
This is simply too fantastic. I love everything expecially that wonderful DP. I really like the piecing, the popped coffee mugs/rack and your entertaining story. Way to go GF.

This is fun!! I love your story of course, and I can't understand buying expensive coffee when it costs like 5 cents to make!! People are NUTS!!! (except you and me!)

What a great themed card and cute story to go along with it. Funny, but that's how I feel after I've had a couple cups of Joe :-) I should be on the couch with a pillow ;-) Great color combo. Love the mugs hanging in the background! TFS
