Usually on the Designer Picks post, I put together my favorites from the Design Team. I decided to do it on a separate post so let’s get to it:

I love that this is a shaker ornament! Kerry’s addition of whole beans and grinds makes it extra caffeinated fun!

Helen’s trendy slimline cocoa design is super cute! The colors and detailed diecutting make for a fun card.

What’s not to love about coffee, rainbow, plaid, owls and fall themed cards? Lisa had several cards to pick from so it did make it super difficult but this card and the gorgeous autumn color palette has me smitten.

Yes, I love fall themed designs so this one by Robyn really caught my eye. The cute caffeinated elements that are teamed up with plaid and pumpkins make the mixed font sentiment POP.

I always love Lori’s card designs because she manages to incorporate fun designer papers and stamped images. The whimsical design of those mugs are so much fun.

This mug shaped plaid design by Amanda has me smiling. So you might notice this fall trend for me…definitely my favs after caffeinated cards.Her sweet coloring of that bear adds to the overall cuteness factor.

Christine’s multi-layer design from a digital image is beautiful, isn’t it? There’s glitter paste on the blooms and the coffee because, well, why not? I love that big ‘ole green mug!

This card by Dana, love it. Those Kittens make me smile, they’re so fun. The added glittery stencil work adds to the overall design.

In case you didn’t know, Erin managed to design 75 amazing projects for the hop. Yes, 75. So here’s the thing, her designs have layers,stamping, coloring, diecutting, you name it. I can’t begin to imagine the number of hours she put into the hop. Check out this one, with its multiple layers, diecutting, added gold detailed vellum…love it.

Katie’s cute shaker card is packed with details. Seriously, those dragons….the one roasting the marshmallow? So very cute! I always appreciate shaker cards…they’re time consuming designs but they always have a wow factor.

Gnomes + Plaid = ❤️ All those panels and layered and the cute cute gnome! The added stitched circle that the sentiment has been stamped on and the velvet ribbon finish off Kathy’s design beautifully.

Check out Lisa’s fla-mazing card. The fun flamingo, the colors [including the coordinating sequins] and the added dry embossing all make for a fabulous card!
Wooo Hoooo! Awesome inspiration, right? Honestly, Coffee Hop week is always a blur to me so to be able to go through the Design Team’s gallery is always an added bonus for me. I appreciate their time and talents.
I managed to design 11 cards for this hop. I had a handful that featured my love of soft pastels but most of my cards seem to fall back on my older style of layers and colors. If I had to pick the card that makes me smile the most, it would probably be this one because of the pun:

I had the final Super Sponsor winner from the hop reach out to me so I’m super happy that the prizes are wrapped by before Thanksgiving. I wanted to do another shout out to our awesome Super Sponsors:
