Sue/Perk/Coffeestamper, a friend and wonderful stamper is our Queen this week. Sue, I'm so happy for you and you really deserve this crown. I know Sue is all about coffee and I should do a coffee image but I had colored this image this morning and was wanting to use it..so, no caffeine from me. LOL
I looked through her wonderful gallery and decided to case this (coffee card): COFFEE SHOP BLOG HOP! by coffeestamper at Splitcoaststampers I believe you said this was a photo of you. LOL
I kept the layout but moved my ribbon to bottom of image and popped my sentiment on my different border. Used different image, paper, ribbon, and sentiment.
Using micro beads for first time to have some shimmer and texture. The green rhinestones are
from another good friend, Pam124. Thanks, Pambina!
Sue, have a blast!!!
For Pam: punch-1, die cuts -2
hardly any weight loss....pleeaaazzzzzz

Brenda this is super pretty. Your flower just pops against all that awesome green. Love your micro beads in the flower center. Way cool. Bet you have them every where now! Know I would. Your dp is fabulous. You did a awesome job here! Love it. TFS :0)So using the punches doesn't make you loose weight? Dang!

Benzi, this is really quite the card! I think your floral image is spectacular and the papers together are so extraordinary. What a fantastic job with casing one of Sue's cards!

Oh, Benz, I love your pretty bright and colorful card. LOVE that paper and the flower is GORGEOUS! Oh, and you used some microbeads too. Way 2 go Boozki, I mean Benzi! I'm loving that English Ivy border punch Benz and the tally count isn't my rule, it's the official Punchkateer rule!! So, don't blame it all on me. Hey, you got that Cricut working yet? You'll probably lie and say you used a punch or nestie, when, in fact, you just touched your lil' finger on a button!! I'll be having our Punchkateer Detective Ditzy666.999999 put all your punches and spellbinders through the "Is it a Cricut or not a Cricut" die cut scanning machine, so don't even try to fool any of us! In the meantime, I think those beautiful green rhinestones sent to you by pam124 just really MAKE this card!! LOL!!! Seriously though Benz, this is really gorgeous and a real tribute to Sue. TFS!!
