Coffee Lover Hop: Love You More than Coffee

Hello everyone!
I've been trying to carve out some time to work on some cards I have in mind, but its been a bit hard. This week starts the coffee lover blog hop, which goes from March 24-March 31.  If you want more information check out their blog here!  There are many sponsors and giveaways.  I LOVE coffee so it peaked my interest when I saw coffee cards from the other papercrafters on social media.  I have always wanted to participate in it, but have been limited in my coffee/tea themed stamps (I still don't have many).  I did not let that deter me from participating this time; instead of stamps I took to my Cricut to die cut some coffee items.  :)  I was searching the web for cut files with the theme, so many cute ones out there especially Doodlebugs/Lori Witlocks Coffee and Cream line!  I think I might purchase some of those cuts one day, instead I choose a traditional to-go coffee cup and coffee word SVG.  The word Coffee was cut out 4 times and layered on top of one another to create a chipboard like embellishment. I distress the coffee sleeve with vintage photo and gather twigs to give it more dimension.  I then distress the background of the card with a bit of pumice stone.  The sentiment I used is from Avery Elle's Simply Said: Love stamp set.  I normally do A2 size cards which is 4 1/4 x 5 1/2, but this time I made a 4 bar size card which is 3 1/2 x 4 7/8.  Hope you like my card :)
