I get to host this week's Viva La Verve sketch recap and this was my take on the sketch. Loved the inspiration photo and pulled the colours from it. 
I was a bit stumped by the two smaller circles in the sketch, so I decided to use a little artistic impression and go with some embossing paste polka dots. The sentiment panel was screaming for me to use the fabulous Coffee Word Die, so I did LOL! The green coffee mug was die cut using the Cuppa Joe Die Set and inspired by the green flower stems. Finished things off by adding a few coffee beans around the cup to ground it.Want to see whose card I spotlighted this week? Head on over to the Viva La Verve blog and find out!
