Welcome to the November Stamp of the Month Blog Hop!  If you’ve been around for a while, you see that I participate in these sometimes.  It is fun to see all the different card creations that people come up with (and layouts too!!).  This month, the stamp is SUPER adorable!  (It has to do with coffee and tea, so, of course I would love it!)  Today you should have arrived from Haley’s blog.  But, if you started here, no worries, you will make it back around to her blog!

This card turned out suuuuper cute!  I thank Andrea Sherman for doing a Youtube tutorial for this card!  Mine is different, mostly because I didn’t have all of the supplies that she did.  But, I wanted to show you that that’s ok!  You can still take inspiration from something and make it your own!  I even did a FB live with it today, giving you some tips with the liquid pearls and stickles!  You will want to watch that!

Here you can see the stickles and the different pearls!  I am seriously IN LOVE with these pearls!  You guys, they are AMAZING!

When I was doing the video, I had an idea to add some of the pearls to the poinsettias at the bottom.  What do you think?  With or without the red pearls?
