Summer Coffee Lover's Blog Hop #5 - Perk Up! {Bugaboo Stamps}

Hello there friends and followers!

So happy you are here to visit me today!

Today is the final day of the  

2016 Summer Coffee Lover's Blog Hop

Somehow I managed to make a card for each

day of this fabulous hop - but am just now

posting the last 3 of them :o).

Did you see that I'm also a Super Sponsor for this hop?

You can find the details about my prize here.

This card features the hilarious Gus 

from Bugaboo Stamps.  It will be 

going to my brother-in-law who 

has been undergoing chemo and

radiation treatments for breast cancer.

He was talking about how his energy

is just so low and needs to perk up soon.

This image and sentiment is just perfect

for him based on that conversation.  

He has the best sense of humor and

I'm sure he will appreciate it.  

I used the sketch at Crazy 4 Challenges C4C341 

for the layout of this card.  The challenge has closed

but I still wanted to recognize it :o)
