Perk Up

Good Morning Everyone! I hope you are having a great week! I thought I'd take a little break from Easter cards and make this shaker card for my good friend Gigi. She has been a little bit down and I hope this will "perk" her up. The background, the coffee cup and the perk up arrow is The Got Coffee Printable Stamp Set from The Cutting Cafe. I filled the shaker with coffee---
Here is the recipe---
Card Size: 4.25x4.25 Shaker Card
Stamps/Image: Cutting Cafe-Got Coffee
Nestibilities: Circle/Scallop
Accessories: Ribbon, Brad, Acetate, Coffee, Craft Ink, Flat Back Pearls, Foam Pop Dots

That's it for today! Thanks for stopping by! I'll see you next time, enjoy your day!

    Awesome card Kelly! I'm sure your friend is going to enjoy this one, especially with the coffee too. How cool is that my friend, I might have to lift this one. Brilliant idea, and I could use some right about now. Thanks for the encouragement and prayers for my Nephew. He is progressing day by day, but it will be a while.

    Hugz, xx

    Kelly, this doesn't look like your usual style of cards. There is something different about it...but I absolutely love it! And I can almost imagine what it will smell like when opened!
