Paper Pieced Coffee Cups

Our son's girlfriend's birthday is this coming weekend and he told me what he is buying for her.  I told him I'd help with the gift and would make a coffee-themed card to go with his idea.  No, he's not getting her a coffee pot, but you're close.  Hopefully he'll let me know soon what I need to get as I still have to get onto Amazon and get it ordered and shipped.  At this point her gift from us will be late but I'll say so in the card.  But the card is almost ready and I'll be mailing it tomorrow.


Most of the stamps used are from a Stampendous set called Coffee Talk.  The "java nice day!" is from a retired TAC set.  I stamped the coffee cut on 3 coordinating papers and cut them out.  The middle one is pop dotted. 


You can kinda see the glitter from the Stardust Clear gel pen on the bubble.  Yep, needed a hint of bling.  Not sure if I like the coffee beans in the bubble but it was just too big for just the text.  What's your thoughts?
