Create with Connie and Mary--Hug in a Mug

Well its officially September so we can start talking cozy sweaters, scarves and Pumpkin Spice latte’s! Who has had one already? I know I have! Our theme this week is Hug in a Mug and I immediately reached for the Press On stamp set from the Handmade for You catalogue.

I created this really fun card and coffee treat combo in a fun soft color pallette—it doesn't say fall AT ALL! Because even though its September I want to live in denial for another week or two! I used Soft Seafoam, Coastal Cabana and Petal Pink.

The little to go coffee cups were the perfect image to create a background. I used the coffee beans stamp on the label for the card and the front of the coordinating coffee treat pouch. And I used the big to go coffee cup image on both projects to keep project continuity.

Wouldn’t you LOVE to give this cute little gift to someone? Or receive it yourself?

Its so so easy to make this cute little coffee pouch. Cut a piece of card stock to 2 3/4 x 5 1/2 and score on the long side at 3 inches. I folded it it up and used a couple mini staples (hidden by the Pool Party ribbon) to keep it closed. Decorate the front and voila, a fun treat pouch!

The Petal Pink shape is from the Hippo & Friends die set and its been a regular in my crafting these past couple of weeks. So much so that I haven’t even put it away yet!

The little strip of DSP and banners on the coffee treat holder are from the Peony Garden Designer Series paper.

Let’s see what the other gals have created this week! If you are starting here you can hop backwards to see Melissa’s creation or you can go forward to see what Connie has made. Either way I know you will be inspired! Thanks for visiting today!
