Happy National Coffee Day!

Hi, everybody!  I'm back again because it's National Coffee Day! Who knew?!  I've already shared a card today for the Fall Coffee Lovers' Blog Hop but I decided to share another one in honour of this special day!


I used a pre-coloured digital image from Limited Runs that I won last month (thank you, Nikki!). It's called Coffee Addicts #3 and I added Clear Wink of Stella to the top and then fussy-cut so I could pop it up with foam tape.


The bottom portion of the card is embossed with Darice Assorted Leaf Patterns. I added some patterned paper snippets from Echo Park and Doodlebug. I stamped a row of stitching (Kelly Panacci clear stamps) along the patterned paper and a fun sentiment from Your Next Stamp (Sprinkles - Coffee and Tea), both in Memento Espresso Truffle. 

A strip of sparkly washi tape was added to the left edge. You know I love to have a kitty or other critter on my cards, so I added Memory Box Curious cat.  I think his curiosity is due to this giant coffee cup, hehe!  I finished off the card with some Impression Obsession die-cut oak leaves and a few sequins from Jillibean Soup.



I would also like to join the following challenges: Beccy's Place September AG UE; Fan-Tastic Tuesday Pets 2/4; Inspiration Destination AG UE; Limited Runs Customer Gallery UE; Mervi's Candy and Challenge 2015 Birthday 3/3; Not Just Cards AG UE;  PINspirational Inspiration Photo 2/5; QKR Stampede Dogs or Cats 2/3

                                      

Thank you for looking at my card!  Wishing you a joyful day!

The curious kitten is perfect near the big cup of coffee!! The sparkling washi tape give a beautiful warm touch to the other colours! You have made another very beautiful card!
I don't know what it means "latte". I understand that this is a figure of speech, an expression to laugh used instead of "a lot of", but I don't know if this word has other meanings in english. In italian it means "milk" :D
