Love books? Then you might just enjoy creating with the Bird’s Eye View stamp set (161436) found in our Annual Catalog.

This set is filled with fun little images that immediately got me thinking about my years helping in our children’s elementary school library. A book lover myself the kids were always happy to have me asking questions about the latest series they were reading. Normally that meant a Harry Potter book, that was almost as big as them!

Today’s card is done in Fresh Freesia and uses the bold patterns of the Masterfully Made Designer Series Paper (161192) as a back drop. Speaking of those days, I thought I’d share this next card with you that uses the Coffee with Friends stamp set (161389). Coffee after working together was always a fun way of ending the day at our local coffee shop on the Lawrenceville square. While the shop is long gone the friendships have lasted.

My entry level coffee of choice was a latte back then. LOL and sent me down a path of regular coffee drinking and being on the look out for the next coffee shop to try out. Ah the lazy afternoons enjoying a cup with friends.

This card is done in our Lemon Lolly and Azure Afternoon, a lovely soft combo. It uses our Stampin’ Blends to add color to the focal point and a bit of texture has been added to the background with simple stamping and our Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder (156505).

I always enjoy sending a card like this to my old friends when it’s been too long since we’ve gotten together, the sentiments are perfect. (And I must admit I’ve got a thing for coffee themed sets.) How about you? Do you have someone you like to catch up with over a cup of coffee?
