I am super excited today because I got to Guest Design for Cupcake Craft Challenges again this week!!
Big News: Cupcake has a new DT Member, Jane!!! To celebrate her arrival, Ribbon Girl has generously given Cupcake a 5 metre bundle of 11 colors of Baker Twine that you can win just by leaving some love on her blog to welcome her aboard!
Pretty yummy, right?! To visit Jane's blog, click here.
And this week's theme at Cupcake Craft Challenges is In the Garden!! And as you guessed it, your projects this week should include something that is inspired by anything "In Your Garden".
One of the things that my best friend and I love to do when we get together, is sit out in my backyard, with some good coffee, and just sit and talk. For hours, lol. I drew my inspiration for today's card from that using one of my new favorites from Guylou's Inimitability, Leah drinking a cup of Java:
