CASEplorations december

If you are looking for my RIC #97 Guest Designer post, click here.

December may be the month of Christmas, but this year in blogland I'd say it's also the month of coffee. Agree?

So who better to have as our muse at CASEplorations in December than Miss Amy Tsuruta of Tsuruta Designs! She is such a pillar of our cardmaking community with her fresh creations and sweet comments. And she is, of course, the source for all things coffee. Did you see she is a member of the new DT at Coffee Loving Cardmakers? No surprise there! Which is why we are CASEing this card of hers in December.

BTW, you can check out Amy's CASE of herself and leave her some love here.

And here is my CASE. I went with the color scheme and the steaming coffee cup from a great little set STAMPlorations Eat, Drink and be Merry in a pattern. Just a somewhat different pattern.

Watercolored over the top of white heat embossing. Die cut the panel with Lil Inker Stitched Rectangle die and adhered it to a kraft cardbse.

Check out what my teamies created and join us this month with your CASE! The gallery is open until Dec 31st. You could win a $15 GC or two stencils.

I'm hooking up at:

SSS Monday Challenge - Gentlemen cuz this one's going to DH. I should add "pumpkin spice latte" as a secondary sentiment! I'm drinking one a day with my homemade syrup from this recipe, BTW.

SSS Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes
