I love fall ! During the summers (which are hot, hot, HOT in my part of the world), I rarely drink coffee or any other hot drink. I do love my coffee so when fall rolls around and the air is crisp, I get to enjoy it again. However, be warned - no matter what time I awake, nothing comes before the coffee!
I have one of those coffee makers which is on a timer and it's set to start 20 minutes before I normally get up. The smell of the coffee brewing is an incentive to crawl out of bed, visit the little room, and find the coffee mug. I admit I'm not the most pleasant person first thing in the a.m. -- in fact, many in the family have referred to me as a grouch, a curmudgeon, even a bi_ _ _! Who me? I'm none of those things. I'm simply caffeine deprived. :-D

CUTE little bear and I love your card. As far as the coffee goes - I'll let you have it. Would you believe I don't even like the smell of it!!! I know that's pretty unheard of.

Oh I am with you on the morning coffee! We also have a coffee pot with a timer and what a let down when I may have forgotten to set it the night before.
Sweet card Connie.

The green tones and shimmer are so awesome. The stitched dies add a great detail.

I do not drink coffee, but sometimes I wish I did just because people seem to enjoy it so much. I just wish it tasted like it smelled. I love your card, and the sentiment, by the way, and I want to thank you for linking up at Colour Crazy Challenge. Julie O, DT member
