Clearly Sentimental

**I have a little giveaway going on here**

Today's day is ALL about the Clearly Sentimental line at My Favorite Things.  I chose the one that features our favorite legal addictive substance, COFFEE!  

I remember the first time I sipped a Carmel Macchiato (in high school) and I've been a coffee drinker ever since.  I eased in with the sugary coffee drinks like Vanilla Lattes and Cinnamon Dolce Lattes, but now, I like Americanos and lattes.  I also gave up caffeine during my last pregnancy and have continued that trend, so it's decaf for me.  Luckily, I still get to enjoy a nice cuppa every once in a while.


I just had to pair the sentiment with the sweet Miss You a Latte a la mode.  I stamped her in a grey to coordinate with our newest color.  MFT carries cardstock that coordinates with buttons and ribbon.  Swoon.  I've been waiting for a grey for some months now!  I'm very excited about this color.  I used all three on this card, too.  Also, check out the new hemp cord (linked below) which is perfect for stitching those buttons.  :)
