This is a lovely sign of Spring, indeed!!  Welcome, coffee lover's, and the 2016 Coffee Lovers Bloghop!! 
I am a bit behind, so I'm going to 'pour' my
1st cup straight away! 
Even though I truly love my coffee black, and hot, I could not resist this darling sentiment and stamp from Neat & Tangle's Perfect Blend - I LOve it May, with its darling kitty!

A snippet frames this cute puuuuurrrrrrfectly!
Stamped in SU Chocolate Chip, and Crumb Cake inks.
 
 
Before I leave you, I want to post my Doodle card for CASology's Week 189 - see if you can find my own personal touch to this little doodle clipped from an adult coloring book:
 

 
Ellen Hutson fabulous die provided a cute little stem
 
I'm not much of a doodler, but I dabble in it ... and it kinda works for Kim's Freshly Made Sketches #228, too!
 

 
Oh you know there will be Second Cups coming shortly!!  It is always a pot-full day 'round here!

  4. Both cards are great...Wondering if you doodled the cat in your coffee cup as well. I usually doodle on scrap paper, but never put it in a card...but have used the adult coloring books for a background.

  15. I LOVE your layering on the first card. The little face in the coffee is so fun!! The second card is awesome!! Love that you used a coloring book flower! I was going to play and actually doodle something by hand but my week got ahead of me. Love your take on both the challenges!

  31. You're just like me about your coffee--black, hot and almost a pot a day! Love your card! The little cat is perfect with the sentiment! Your doodle is so clever, and so stunning with the black & white. What a great idea to write on the petals

  34. And the cat in a cup - unexpectedly sweet :)

  35. I knew you'd come up with a wonderful coffee card, Michele. Sometimes you just have to add the cream. And you have to add your own doodles. I'm thinking it's the letters on the petals. Love the flower on the black, every graphic.
