Christmas Coffee with Heart

I got some new Catherine Pooler stamps & paper in the house this week, so I decided to use the Catherine Pooler Mug Shots Stamp set for my card for the Caffeinated Christmas Challenge

 

Challenge two 202202

 

I stamped the Cat Mug in purple & added a heart.  I decided to pair it with new Catherine Pooler Under the Eiffel Tower Designer Paper.

Only one problem, somewhere along the way I forgot I was making a Christmas Card (I'm embarrassed to admit how many times I forgot some key element of a challenge while I'm in the midst of creating).

So, I did what any committed card-maker does, I went back and tried again.  This time I used the Holly Thermos from Catherine Pooler Warm & Cozy Stamp set in the same purple with the berries stamped in red.  My granddad always took a thermos of coffee in his lunch box every day to work, so that memory made me smile.

I used the rest of my Under the Eiffel Tower Paper together with die cut hearts from Catherine Pooler Hearts & Tags Dies.  This time I got the occasion right with a sentiment from Catherine Pooler Jolly Trees.

I'm also linking-up at the 12 Months of Christmas Link Up Challenge, which is also Christmas with a Heart.

  1. I love them both! You get in the happy zone and sometimes the creation just takes over. Bright colors and great die cuts = fun for any occasion. Thanks for joining us at Sketch Saturday-Dena J, DT
