Fall Coffee Lovers Bloghop

Pumpkins are perched on porches! and there's that aroma of coffee in the air ... oh that's an everyday thing, 'round here!

I'm quite late to the party, but a little twilight-time [a little song for you Anita in France] stamping helped!  Here's my little contribution to the already bountiful-beautiful gallery at the Fall Coffee Lovers Bloghop!

The Cat's Pajama's This could be Vodka stamps and Duo cup dies.

A funny thing happened to the finished product... I found a bit of stray embossing and tried to 'scratch' it off with a craft knife - which lead to a disaster, which lead to some more, and a striped tail!

Hope you have a truly caffeinated day!  Thanks for sharing a cuppayourtime with me!

That sure is a lovely song isn't it, Michele ... thanks, my sweet friend, for the reminder ... they don't write (or sing!) songs like that any more! Your adorable kitty is a delight, BTW ... brilliant fun ... who'd have known he got his striped tail from scratching!! Hugs, Anita :)

If you hadn't mentioned it I would have thought the shabby look was intentional, Michele. I love the cat in the cup. Reminds me of my cat in the sink. ;)
