Thera's crafts

We had a sunny couple of weeks down here in the Netherlands. I just enjoyed the sun and nature. In the meantime I created a card for the My Besties International challenge  blog.

Eventhough I don't drink any coffee at all, I've got lots of friends who can't get through their day without a couple of cups of coffee all year through.  I used the design paper "hug in a mug" by Noor design as well as some Noor design dies for making the flowers.
