Birthdday Brew & Books

 

4 challenges inspired today's card...

Double Trouble // #227 ...A "Thing 1, Thing 2, and Thing 3" challenge!!  Thing 1 wants us to follow a "Leafin' It Up To You" recipe...3 colors (green, orange, and brown), 2 Autumn images (falling leaves & coffee and book stack), and 1 metallic (metal "Happy Birthday" sentiment)...CHECK!!  Thing 2 wants us to use the sketch from Try A Sketch On Tuesday #706...CHECK!!  Thing 3 wants us to include a pumpkin...CHECK!!

Try A Sketch On Tuesday // #TSOT706 ...A sketch challenge!!  These two challenges (Double Trouble & TSOT) always partner up.  Since this is a planned partnership on their part (not me picking and combining challenges) you always know they work perfectly together!!

Addicted to Stamps & More // #ATS&M528 ...A theme challenge!!  The theme for this current challenge is BIRTHDAYS!!  I used a metal "Happy Birthday" sentiment on this card.  I made this card for a friend who has a Novemeber birthday and who shares my love of coffee, books, and Fall!!

First Cup Challenge // #19 ...A monthly challenge all about beverages!!  I thought it fitting on this birthday card for a friend who, like me, loves books and coffee to include a cup of coffee stacked on a book.  Birthday, brew, and books...perfect combination!!
