Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop

It's Memorial Day weekend here in the United States.  I think for many of us, we consider it the unofficial start of summer.  Yesterday it was a gorgeous, sunny 75 degree day in the Pacific Northwest and it sure felt like summer!  Today looks like it will be a bit cooler here, and right now the sky is overcast and displaying one of our 50+ shades of gray ;-). 

Even if it's cloudy outside, it's sunny inside my craft room as I whipped up my card for the Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.  My beverage of choice is black coffee, but a hot drink isn't what I usually crave in the warmer months.  I spotted this fun bubble tea paper in a scrapbook store when I was down in Oregon last month visiting my bestie and picked it up for my stash.  I used the Stay Cool stamp set and Cool Cup die from My Favorite Things; to make the "bubbles," I used the mini marshmallow die from the Hot Cocoa Cups die collection from My Favorite Things and die cut them in black cardstock.

Now I'm not a huge fan of bubble tea myself.  The tapioca balls just aren't my thing (I think it's the texture that gets to me).  But I think the drink sure looks pretty!

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Can't wait to check out the rest of the projects.  I'm a bit late to the party!
