I have made a fun birthday card with

"COFFEE TAKE ME AWAY"

This is such a fun stamp to work with!

Its so easy to stamp and paper piece the 

tea cup.  These gorgeous papers are from My Minds Eye, Lost & Found

The only coloring I did with copics was

her hair, coffee bag, the water and whatever skin

 was peeking out of the tub!  Easy Peasy!
The pretty heart die is Cheery Lynn Designs Two of Hearts
I also used Cheery Lynn Designs Fanciful Flourish die for the leaves
The flowers, corner embellishment and lace are from Wild Orchid Crafts
I used clear crystal effects on the water and cupcake

Just look at this set of 8 thick and deeply etched
rubber stamps that 

you can purchase for only $40.00!

On a personal note
Sadly, the picture I shared of the nest with 3 pretty Robins eggs inside has been abandoned by its parents!
I was hoping to get more pictures after they hatched, while they were growing.  :-(
It's so sad.  The three pretty eggs are still sitting in the nest all alone.  The parents are no where in sight.
I would dearly love to report the Robin parents to the authorities for neglect!
I am off now to welcome all of the little cherubs here to my daycare/preschool.
We are doing a circus theme and learning about opposites.
The other day we did HAPPY and SAD clowns!
The children all LOVED performing their Happy and Sad feelings both vocally and with priceless 
facial expressions!  They continued dramatizing and play acting all day long!
I couldn't count how many times they had me convinced that one of them was really crying or hurt!  They all turned out to be excellent actors!
Today we are making those yummy Hershey Kiss and Pretzel treats for their daddy's Father's Day gift.
They all made a special mug with their hand prints on them for us to put the treats inside of!

Thank you so much for visiting!
I hope that you have a great day!
Warmest Hugs, Sheryl
