Coffee Lovers Blog Hop-Fall/Winter 2018-Day 1

I thought this day would never get here!  It is time once again for the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!!   This time around we're creating projects using the theme of Coffee, Tea or Cocoa along with Fall/Winter!  You can link up at the main post here for a chance to win one of so many prizes!  (85 Sponsors!!!)  And link up more than once for more chances... just be sure to create something new with these themes and link it up!  I've used some awesome Paper Smooches and Lawn Fawn products for Day 1 and here's what I have for you today: 

One of my absolutely FAVE To Go Cup dies is the Cozy Coffee die from Paper Smooches... I mean.. I just love that the die cuts out the outline and all of the pieces.  I just cut mine a few times out of various papers and piece them together upside down and then add foam tape across the whole thing... or regular adhesive if you like things flat... but why would you want to do that??  I started with that adorable Lawn Fawn Really Rainbow Christmas Paper.

Then I just mixed and matched them and cut out my cup pieces along with that awesome hat for my cup from the Snowman 2 Die... it was the perfect size!  And the largest tag from the Gift Tags 2 Dies made the perfect backdrop.

And if you've been following me on Instagram you may have seen this fellow before... but probably not his friend!  These images from the Santa Paws stamp set... really all of the images from that set... so adorable!!  I'd say that I'm pretty sure these are Santa's two best friends... the hugest cup of coffee (with a hat to keep it warm) and his little buddy Rudolph.  What else would you need?

A few snowflakes from the Snowflakes Dies, the scarf from the Snowman Card Dies, and that awesome sentiment (don't you just love all of the Paper Smooches sentiment stamps and dies????) from the Christmas Word Dies.  All I needed were a few sequins!

Just the cutest right??  Now, head on over to the Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog Post Here for all of the details!  You'll be able to check out all of our awesome sponsors, including Paper Smooches!  Be sure to thank them for all of their wonderful support of our beloved hop.. and Amy!!  Please don't forget our Fearless Leader Amy Tsuruta who works so hard to make this hop happen...
