This sweet coffee card by KT Fit Kitty is so adorable! We love how she paper pierced the coffee mug wrap to coordinate with the plaid on the background! She used our Newton Loves Coffee stamp set and the "meow" from our Newton Unwinds Die set.  

 Karen Baker created her own interpretation of plaid using the frame from our  Garden Starter stamp set. It's so cool how she overlapped the frame with different colors to create this plaid look! The added sunflower is from the Flower Garden stamp set and the banner is cut out with the Garden Window Die set. 

One more favorite - this tag by Vicki is so gorgeous! We love how colored the pup onto kraft paper and added a plaid paper-pierced sweater! The subtle brown plaid behind him adds the perfect touch too!  She used our  the Holiday Hounds stamp set to create this lovely Fall tag!
