Another Crafter's Companion card using stamps from their just-released Imagine series ... love the fun coffee stamps. The challenge at The Kraft Journal is to use your scraps. These tiny little tuck-in cards are perfect for that.
I dipped ink bottles in brown ink to create additional coffee rings on my card.
I thought these tiny little cards would be perfect to for gifting a gift certificate to the local coffee shop for a little winter pick-me-up.
And to celebrate my new design adventure with Crafter's Companion (and to clean out my studio to make room for my new goodies), I've filled another medium sized flat rate USPS box with wooden mounted rubber stamps, 6' paper pads, and border & other punches (seriously, lots of stuff). Leave me a comment below with your favorite Valentine's Day candy (mine are gummy hearts ... cherry or cinnamon) and I'll close the list Tuesday night at 8pm CST and draw a random winner for the box of goodies.
And Jessi ... you're the winner of the Top 10 Favorites of 2012 ... send me your address & I'll get you some goodies in the mail.
PS - can I just say how cool it was to see my cards on the booth sample boards at CHA.
my favorite valentine candy is a red sucker.
thanks for the chance to win.

Your card is smashing! I like the "flowing" sentiment with the layered circles. Congrats on having your cards featured on the CHA boards! :) My fav Valentine candy is Brach's cinnamon jelly hearts. I spied a bag last week and it's here with me, now. Hee!

Very clever card! My favorite is Van Duyn's chocolate assortment with nuts! Don't know if they are available elsewhere, but they are a 50+ year tradition in Oregon.

Very fun cards, Stef!
Just wanted to stop by and say hi, as I've been away from the internet for a while.
Mmmm, let's seen, Valentine's candy . . . those Dove chocolate hearts are pretty great, but my favorite is when the husband brings me Christopher Elbow chocolates! :)

Urgh, it ate my comment! Thanks so much :) Email on its way!
Can you ever really have too many coffee-themed stamps? I haven't hit my max yet. Love the idea of using ink bottles to add to it!
As for Valentine's candy...Purdy's hedgehogs are my fave. Yum!

I like milk chocolate in any size or shape. I love your blog and hope you have a happy winter.

Love the coffee rings on your cards. I like plain dark chocolate.
