LPS Monday: Startin' the week off right...


Hey everyone...Happy Monday! It was a fast weekend, wasn't it? 50 degree weather here although it brought on some allergy related stuff that I'm hoping isn't a cold?! That's how it goes, I guess, right?

I'm starting my week off right with a nice cup of coffee this morning. Most of you know how much I enjoy my coffee in the mornings! It's my little ritual after I get the kids off to school.
Coffee was also my focus as I made my card this week, using THIS sketch on the Little Paper Shop's Blog!
Yep, that's right, we are now doing challenges on the LPS Blog and encourage you to check it out! This week's sketch will be open until the 16th of the month, and a LUCKY WINNER will be able to choose one of our new stamp sets being released on the 17th! Lots of fun stuff going on over there so be sure to check it out!
I used the Make your Own Mug set to create this card and the sentiment is from the Chirp set. You can stop by The Little Paper Shop's Gallery, too to gain lots of inspiration and see fun samples. Be sure to leave a comment on the LPS Blog if you play along with the sketch so we can enter you in to win one of the releases!
Hope you all have a wonderful day!
Jessica :)

This is too, too cute! I love the color combo and the images are just perfect! I really like how you incorporated the texture with you embossing folders! You always do such a great job of combining elements! I want to be like you! I hear you about the coffee. Have to have mine everymorning too! LOL!

Smiles and hugs,

Girl, the card is adorable. But what I really wanna thank you for is the tip about Missy Higgins - I just had to buy the album from iTunes. I love it - perfect, soothing - just what I need! I'm so glad you are in my life - you help me in more ways than you know! I am so blessed by your friendship!
