This week is a sketch challenge from Makeesha and I'm very excited that I'm guest designer.

One of my favourite things to do (other then crafting) is to sit down at Gloria Jeans and enjoy a cappuccino. So for my card I have used woodgrain BG to represent wood panelling at the stores and also a strip of Newsprint DSP for the card marking magazine I love to read while drinking my coffee. The cups and have been embossed and watercoloured in early espresso, marina mist, crumb cake, cherry clobber and then spritzed. What do you think?
