While designing my card I wanted to keep things bright and colorful yet simple to assemble as I was short on time. Due to that, I used my Silhouette Cameo for a majority of the elements. I cut out my coffee cup, stitched rectangle panel, curved hill, and "hugs" sentiment out of various cardstocks and patterned papers that I had on hand.

As a result, assembly was pretty quick. I white heat-embossed "sending" from my Simple Sentiments stamp to finish off the "hugs" greeting. I added foam tape behind some of the elements and kept the rest flat. I added a few embellishments like a button tied with twine and some enamel dots. They add a touch of dimension and additional color to an otherwise simple card design.

I hope you love what I created! To celebrate today's hop I'm giving away a prize pack worth $25 to one crafter who links up her creation to the Coffee Lovers Link-Up. If you want a chance to win, create a project inspired by summer, coffee, tea, or cocoa and link it up here. Winners will be announced soon.

Happy crafting!
