Friends of Unity September 2022 Blog Hop ~ Coffee, Tea & Cocoa

 Welcome to our September FOU Blog Hop! 

I try to appreciate every season, but oh how I am so thrilled for September as it ushers us into Fall!

Like many of you, I am a coffee fanatic. I do love hot tea and cocoa, but there's something extra about sitting with a cup of coffee early in the morning. It is one of the many things that brings me great joy!

There are so many Unity stamps centered around coffee, tea and cocoa!  I used Flutters to Go for this cue as it has always been one of my absolute favorites. Especially when making a card for a friend inviting to share a cup of coffee with me!


The sentiment is from a set called Been A While. This set also has a beautiful large fern leaf. 

I am always drawn to earthy colors, so how fitting they are for our approaching season!


I wanted to showcase another stamp set featuring coffee, but my printer gave me fits and this is all I could muster! ;)  Off to drop this in the mail to remind someone I miss them and would love to visit over a cup of coffee, tea or cocoa!

I hope you’ll join our cue and create with Coffee, Tea & (or) Cocoa! Please, tag me if you do. I’d love to see it!

My hope is that you read through the entire blog. Makes my heart so happy thinking you do!

As always~

Thanks for spending time with me today!

It brings me so much joy sharing my thoughts and creations with all of you!

Until next time~

Be blessed, friends!

Bobbie Sue
