Aug Friends of Unity Coffee Tea Hop

August Friends of Unity Coffee/Tea Hop

Last month's winner: Brianna J. with her comment (Wow! I love that you showcased three separate & amazing cards with one stamp. Fantastic set and wonderful inspiration.) Please email me at jeaniehays00@yahoo.com with your mailing address so that I can send your Unity goodies.

Life Would SUCC Without You

Because I wouldn't be able to function ..... that's why life would SUCC without you. I love to smell you brewing in the morning. You pull me out of sleep, turn my brain back on (well, sometimes) and give me energy so that I can get stuff done faster. Without all that... My mornings would surely SUCC.

That is why my darling coffee friends this Uniquely Unity stamp was perfect to turn into a coffee cup; perfect to show my deep appreciation of strong coffee.


Succulents survive! They survive harsh desert climates; kind of like how coffee helps me survive the day.


Prismas on kraft with some Nuvo morning dew drops.


Unity Stamp/sentiment altered to a more appropriate SUCC as an abbreviation for succulent. I originally bought this to go with the vacuum stamp Unity has. But altered, it works for this.

I added the keys from Key To Joy in the background because coffee sure seems like a key part of my day!


No tag is complete without washi, a mess of ribbon, eyelash trim and twine! 

And there you have it... a succulent pot turned into a coffee cup because I love both!

I'm giving away a surprise coffee stamp this time around. Comment and be entered to win. Must claim prize within one month.

Disclaimer: Friends of Unity appreciates every single comment we get. So much so that we use our own stash every month for a giveaway. We are NOT sponsored by Unity Stamp Co. But, they DO approve of our hop by lovingly enabling us. We started this hop because we love Unity. That is all. This hop is our way of showcasing our cards made with Unity Stamp; our favorite stamp company.

Please share in the fun and hop along with us.

  11. Ooooh, I love the way Prismacolors look on kraft ... and you color so beautifully! This is just stunning. Hubby & I are always looking for something different to put our plants in and we have several coffee cups/mugs that do the trick.

  23. I love love love the colors you used on all of these. My sister says I am bold when I color, but I love bright bold colors, that is just me. I use prisma all the time but can not get such bright colors as you have done. Is there a secret to making they look so vibrant, I use white all the time for brighter colors
