Hi friends!! Happy Monday – on the strangest week of the year! LOLZ. This week is so weird – like what day is it even? Is Christmas really over? How can it be a new year already? Wait, what day is it again? Monday? Hmmmm…. I hope you all had a wonderful and lovely Christmas weekend! Our holiday was very quiet and peaceful. We spent a good amount of time at church and it didn't rain on Christmas day which was perfect. I made beef stroganoff for dinner – and we're having it again tonight. Yum. My husband bought me this very cool electric kettle and I love it already. And now here we are, awaiting the joys that 2022 will bring! But you know what? We've made it through this super hard year, so cheers to us!! XOXO
I got into the studio today for the first time in a week or so. Just a quick post here! I was a bit rusty so I just picked up some pretty patterned paper that's been sitting here for too long. I made a quick card. No stamping – just paper and stickers and fun embellishments… I have some Valentine stamps and dies here already for assignments and blog hops!!
This card is an A2 white card base, layered with deep black cardstock. The the pretty patterned papers!! I wrapped the card with some twine and added enamel dots as embellishments. It's such a nice soft color palette. And you know I love a coffee theme!!
The card layout is from my Pinterest Board called "Card Sketches and Layouts" if you want to take a peek. I refer back to this when I want to use my patterned papers!

Have a great week!!! I'll be back soon!!! XOXO
