Many thanks to all who played and hopped along over the last week, being filled with wonderful coffee inspiration.

Our winner selected by a random number generator is:

Diane

We asked our entrants to let us know if they spend a lot getting take out coffee or if they prefer their own home brew, along with what they like to spice up their coffee. This was Diane's anwer.

"I do both, we have a local coffee shop (2nd & Main) that I frequent a lot and my debit card proves it, but when home I brew a pot each day and drink several cups, it's an addiction to me!! I use Italian creamer at home!!"

Tea Time Pocket Card

Good morning to all. Deb Felts is with us today sharing a fun pocket card with a small bag of loose tea tucked into the pocket. She used our current Product of the Week - stamps, dies and paper - to create this lovely project.

You can see our full Product of the Week at the end of this post. These fun coffee/tea themed items are 20% OFF through Saturday only, so be sure to check it out!

This is a unique design, this being the card front. The base is a standard 4.25" x 5.5".

Note that the base is merely that, a base. What actually opens is the top Z-fold, which is cut at 4.25" x 9", scored at 3" and 6".

Coffee or Tea? (die cut cup, steam, tag and stamped sentiments)

Coffee or Tea? 6x6 Pad (printed designer papers)

Grunge Light (mottled designer sheets)

Baker's Twine

Gems

Here the Z-fold top is opened up - so much fun!

Deb tucked in that wonderful little bag of loose tea!

A closer view of the inside right - such fun paper!

Thanks so much, Deb, for this wonderfully fun and easy to make pocket card.

Someone is going to be thrilled to get it!

Paper Pad Used

Coffee or Tea? 6x6 Pad by Stamp Simply Clear Stamps

2026 National Coffee Day Blog Hop

 Happy National Coffee Day to all!

Grab a cup and join us!

Today begins the National Coffee Day Blog Hop.

Stamp Simply is thrilled to be a returning Super Sponsor.

By joining in the fun and hopping along you will receive inspiration galore and also be in the running to win so many wonderful prizes, and perhaps even be put on notice of some sales!

Each stop along the way is offering a prize, so be sure to read their commentary as to how to enter on that particular post.

You can find the complete list at the Coffee Loving Papercrafters OR check the link list at the very bottom of this post. You won't want to miss a stop!

_____

Our Prize Offering & How To Enter

Stamp Simply is offering a $25 Gift Code to some lucky winner!

And purely out of curiosity, we'd like you to answer this 2 part question in the comments, and a winner will be randomly drawn from those comments.

1) Are you one to watch your pennies and drink home brewed coffee, or do you spend multiple dollars per day on a cup (or more) of specialty coffee?

2) If you drink home brewed coffee (as I do), is there anything you add to it to make it more special? I have a creamer recipe that I love made from fresh cream & milk, but if I don't have time to make that, adding a pour of pure maple syrup and milk/cream makes for a delicious treat!

Just leave your comment and we will pick a winner on Friday evening, 10/02, and announce the winner sometime over the weekend. Be sure to check back to see if you've won!
