{Paper Smooches Video} Winter/Holiday Coffee Lovers Blog Hop


Hello, everyone! Happy National Cocoa Day!! I hope you're all enjoying your favourite hot  beverages, whether it's coffee, tea or cocoa. I always love the Coffee Lovers Blog Hops and, this time, I made a tea card with a video!


I used quite a few Paper Smooches products, including Foliage 1, Foliage 2, Bows, Coffee & Tea, A Holy Holiday, Cyber Cafe and Christmas Sampler. Phew! That was a lot. ;)



I stacked three shapes and shades of green leaves to create laurels at the top and bottom of my card. The blue bow, sentiment and teapot create a vertical line to draw the eye down the centre of the card. The silver behind the blue bow is reflected in the string holding the tea bag to the pot.


Be sure to comment or play along for your chance to win one of many amazing prizes for the Holiday Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.


Thanks so much for stopping by!
