YES!! There's something rather ironic about drinking coffee and remaining 'calm', but the concept works perfectly for me! Another delightful showcase of the new release combined with your outstanding creativity! Your card has me off to work, smiling!!

I totally love this card! Great image and that sentiment is the best! I could have so used this card yesterday. I sent a super long email to someone and I started it off with - grab a cup of coffee before you start this - he came running over to my cubicle laughing. He would have loved this. Hugz to you my friend.
