Some mornings....

Okay, in my house every day is a two cup day! My personality is much better after a cup or tow of that miracle morning juice. I really do enjoy these Changito stamps from Stampendous, and they keep getting cuter and cuter. I stamped the image and sentiment with Memento ink and colored Changito with Prismacolor pencils. I used a little bit of Glossy Accents on the mugs. The brads are from the Paper Studio, the papers are from my stash, and the scalloped circle was punched with a Marvy punch.

I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend so far. My sister, her husband and my nephew came up for a visit on Friday and they left last night. Silas is just a little over two and a hand full, but still a lot of fun. Kip had the good fortune to watch his very first episode of Blues Clues yesterday. I don't know what bothered him more, the show or the fact that all three of the other adults in the room knew all the songs and hand movements. Other than their visit, we have just been hanging out around the house not doing too much. Enjoy your day tomorrow!

Love this image. It is so cute and I love what you did with it. The paper even reminds me of pajamas. I also like the finishing touch of the brads on the scalloped circle.

Stephanie said...

Ah...a nice relaxing weekend...that sounds good (except maybe for the momentary Blues Clues songs - sorry :) )

I love Changito too and need to pull him out soon to make cards for a monkey card swap. I agree that the images just keep getting cuter and cuter (and my bank account keeps getting smaller and smaller) Enjoy the rest of 'non'labor day!

Oh my goodness, I love this card and I love that sentiment. I need my morning miracle juice as well. My kids can tell if mom has had her coffee yet or not, that's for sure.

The Mama Monkey said...

LOL This is so cute! I don't drink coffee, but often I think I should! Oh, poor Kip!! I think he might need a few BC DVD's in his stocking this Christmas!

Miracle morning juice! Ha! I have to confess at least coffee is more civilized or more appropriate . . . I usually break open a diet Pepsi in the mornings sometime after breakfast . . . bad me! Cute story, cute card.

I only have 1 cup of coffee in the morning, but it's HUGE! Your card is so cute! I love coffee related stuff.

Before I had kids, I didn't have a clue about kid shows. I asked my BIL what I could get my nephew for Christmas one year and he started talking about all these characters, including Blue's Clues, and I remember my eyes glazing over because I didn't have a clue what he was talking about. LOL Now, I could probably sing the theme song to most of the kid shows on TV.

Gina, you did an awesome job! Just the cutest! I am also a two cup coffee drinker...two cups every couple of hours!! Glad you had a good visit! Blessings to you!

I'm not a coffee drinker, but he's too cute! Some days I think I should take up the stuff. I really like the DP it's a great fit. Almost looks like PJs.
