Coffee Loving Papercrafters

Welcome back! I am excited to have a coffee date with Claire Lamb. Actually, Claire and I have coffee dates almost every Saturday or Sunday. Claire is my daughter and a talented card maker. She has been making cards for about ten years and she currently is part of the Newton’s Nook Inky Paws Challenge Team, where she creates cards for their bi-weekly challenges. Follow her on Instagram for more inspiration: @ink_share_claire

For our coffee date, we decided to use a similiar color palette: aqua, beige, white, and brown. This is one of my favorite combos for coffee cards.
