Hello my crafty friends
It's Saturday and that means a new challenge at the Crazy4Challenges Blog. It's a new month, our March hostess is Frances Byrne and please welcome our Guest Designer Barb Anders - Paper Pursuits. I've long been a fan of Barb's creations!
I enjoy making coffee cards, so I pulled out some of my (retired) Verve stamps and the Rockin' Rectangle Pop-Up die set by Karen Burniston. The front says "Happiness is ...".
As the card is opening, you see the cup of coffee and the words "... A Huge Cup of Coffee..."
As you continue to open the card, this rectangle rocks up and to the side and reveals the second sentiment "... and a teensy bit of silence." I thought this might be a fun card to send to one of our daughters as both like coffee AND with young kids silence is a rare thing. Whichever I send it to will get a kick out of the card.
Here is a look at the card fully open ...
... a closer look at the paper pieced coffee cup ...
... and all the dimension you get from the Rockin' Rectangle Pop-Up!
Finally, for those of you who like to pin Fronts and Insides together on your Pinterest boards ... here you go.
Check out the C4C blog to see how the Crazies have been inspired by the challenge. We'd love to see your take on it, so be sure to stop by the Crazy4Challenges blog and link up your creations. If you are uploading to an online gallery, please use the keyword C4C473.

Frances' challenge is: March is Caffeine Awareness Month, so for our challenge this month create a Coffee themed card.
