Day 75 - Imagine This: Coffee

This post comes to you from the lovely state of Iowa! I will be here for just a few days and then it's back home. I've enjoyed all the cards you've been posting, and I am itching to get back to my scraproom!!!

We've had busy (but fun) days on this trip, and I have really relied on coffee to get me going each day, so it is appropriate that today's challenge features coffee as the source of inspiration. It's another Imagine This challenge, and you can either use an image of coffee (cup, beans, etc.) or let an image of it inspire your card.

Today we have 2 cards to share because we have another guest designer. Introducing:

Darlene D'Eon

Hi, my name is Darlene D'Eon. I have been scrapbooking and cardmaking for just over 5 years and totally love this craft. I've done some sort of crafting all of my life usually to help supplement our family income. When I discovered scrapbooking, it became such a personal craft, something special for our family. Something that I hope we'll treasure for years. I have been married to my honey, Gene for almost 25 years and have taken great pleasure in being a mom to our son Keith who is 22 and our daughter BJ, who is 20. Even though I could spend every waking moment scrapbooking, I do have a casual day job as a bank teller and I do still enjoy quilting occasionally. I am so pleased to have had this opportunity to guest design for 365 Cards.

And here is Darlene's card:

Now that is one delicious looking cup of coffee!! Thanks, Darlene, for sharing this with us. If you wish to see more of Darlene's wonderful work, take a peek at her blog here.

And because it's Thursday, we also get to see some eye candy from DT member Amy:

Another fabulous creation - thanks, Amy!!

Don't forget that you have until Saturday night to post a link for the Sunday sketch challenge to be entered into the prize drawing. Details here.

Now it's time to "coffee" up your cards~
