It’s HERE! National Coffee Day (NCD) 2021!! I’m so excited to be able to participate in the Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog Hop for NCD 2021!

I absolutely LOVE coffee and I LOVE to create with it, whether it’s a stamped motif, a funny phrase about how awesome coffee is or even using coffee to DYE my paper (and FABRIC) I LOVE coffee! I drink two or three cups a day (which explains all the exclamation points!)

If you’re here from the hop, WELCOME! Thank you so much for stopping by! Please read to the VERY END for the instructions to enter for the GIVEAWAY!


Check out this AMAZING scrapbook page that my good friend Kimberly created using some amazing products from the shop!

Who isn’t ready for some weekend vibes, right? (I’m totally hoping for some actual fall vibes too – heat is for the BIRDS!)

You didn’t think we could get through National Coffee Day without actually PAINTING WITH COFFEE did you? Well, I certainly couldn’t. Here’s a REALLY QUICK video (reality sped up, I wish I worked this fast!) of me creating a couple pages in my Dina Wakley Art Journal.

  1. YAY! I love Kimberly’s layout!
    We welcome you as a new Super Sponsor!
    I *wish* I could drink my coffee black but honestly, it’s a dash of coffee with my creamer *LOL*

  2. I make a special coffee every morning with organic coffee, raw cacao, turmeric, and almond milk. I blend it in a blender and it comes out so frothy…SB has nothing on me 😉

  3. I love coffee! I drink freshly ground beans from a Veteran owned shop at at previous duty assignment. I use coconut sugar to lightly sweeten and Nut Pods for the “cream”

  4. I love having whipped cream with my pumpkin spice or hazelnut flavored coffee. I enjoy it every morning.😀

  5. I don’t pretend to actually like coffee!!! But I do like to add delicious flavored creamers AND never run out of those sugar free syrups too!! Mmmm! Every day!

  6. hi! I like coffee with milk. 2 cups in the morning and a couple in the afternoon. I’m a coffee lover

  7. GOTTA LOVE COFFEE!!!!! Sorry for the all caps – you’d think I’d had more than one cup this morning (I did not, but I did enjoy one very strong, oh-so-perfectly black, coffee! hehe) Such a fun celebratory hop – thank you Anna!

  8. Hummm, good question.. how do I like my coffee???.. well I would have to say I like my coffee to have some creamer and 1 – 1.5 teaspoons of sugar. Not too dark, not too light. Not too sweet and not too dark. Just in the middle for that perfect balance for me 🙂 Thanks! 😊

  9. Super cute layout!! I drink my coffee with Italian Sweet creamer, but the downside is I had to revert to a Decaf coffee…bummer, but I am getting used to it and can have coffee late in the evenings now and it doesn’t keep me awake, so that is a plus!!

  10. I loved watching that fast moving coffee journal demo – super duper fabulous! I like Mocha Mocha – which I make at home – and it has to be HOT! thanks for being on the blog hop and a super sponsor as well — enjoy your day!

  11. I am mostly a tea drinker but out with friends I drink my coffee light with sugar at least three scopes.

  12. I’m one of those ppl who puts way too much sugar in my coffee lol! I’m not much of a fan of the taste of coffee (I’m a tea girl!) but I need that lovely caffeine most days! So I make myself a soy mocha at home and it is lovely! (1 spoon cocoa powder, 3 spoons sugar and a lot of soy milk!) I know it isn’t good for me but boy does it taste amazing!

  13. Happy NCD! Like you, I love my coffee, especially my first couple of cups in the morning. I drink mine with cream and a little sugar. Can’t imagine starting my day without it!

  14. What a great layout by Kimberly. I like what she did to the center and it was so fun to watch you work in the Art Journal. Looked so fun! I have to have sweetener and Italian Sweet Creamer in my coffee. Thanks for being a Super Sponsor. Happy National Coffee Day!

  15. I’m an outcasst – I don’t drink coffee.
    Love to smell it being ground but don’t
    like the taste. Give me a cold Pepsi
    anytime. Love the layout. We’ll
    be needing that firepit soon.
    thanks for sharing.

    1. I used to be the same way about coffee until I discovered Starbucks Frappuccino AND flavored creamers. I usually have enough sweetener to fight the taste of the coffee.

  16. Love your scrappage!! So precious! As much as I love Coffee hops, I don’t drink coffee but I drink hot green tea. I drink it plain. Thank you for being a Super Sponsor!

    1. I like to drink iced green tea, it was my go to when I was working full time, we had a hot water faucet on the coffee maker so I would brew some green tea and add ice! My office always provided green tea bags in the break room too.

  17. I love my coffee iced with cream and sugar!! Thanks for the coffee crafting inspiration and the awesome giveaway.

  18. I normally don’t drink coffee. I’m a hot tea or hot chocolate girl. However, if I drink coffee people laugh at me because I have to add so much sugar and cream and then I LOVE the taste of it. Oh, Lordy. Does that count as drinking coffee?

    1. Sure does, sounds like how I like my coffee too! I have to add 4 Splendas (for my double size coffee travel mug) and a healthy splash of half and half!

  19. Hi, thank you for the ideas and inspiration. And of course for the giveaway. How I like my coffee you ask? Well, suffice it to say to me coffee = dessert. Make it heavy on the cream, heavy on the sugar and if there are toppings let the top! Lol. Be well.

  20. I love my coffee with some vanilla stevia! What a great coffee layout! Thanks so much for being a sponsor! HAPPY NCD!

    1. Oh that sounds good and like something I should try! I like iced coffee in the warmer months (which in Houston is practically year round!) In fact I think they created the iced pumpkin spice drinks just for us southern folks – but they aren’t very good IMHO.

  21. I’ll have a hot black coffee, please ☕😊❤ great LO and video! Thanks for being a super sponsor

  22. Great scrapbook page of a fun, relaxing time! Anna, your work is also so unique. If I drank coffee, it would have to be sweetened up with lots of creamer and sugar…not black. Love Hills Bros Cappuccino though! Happy to see you as a sponsor!

  23. I love your scrap page! So cute!! I love tons of sugar and cream in mine! I always get the stink face at McDonald’s. No more sugar please! Lol

  24. I love how you painted with coffee on your Journal page. I like a strong cup of coffee with 2 creamers and a sweetener, but really I’ll drink coffee any way I can get it 😉

  25. My sister says that I’m just strange. She thinks that because I don’t actually drink coffee. I’ve never acquired the taste for it. But I really love the smell of it brewing. If I did drink it, I’m sure it would have LOTS of cream and sugar in it.

  26. I definitely like my creamer, vanilla preferably, a good solid sploosh. Lol! Not too much though. Still want to taste the coffee. Haha. Thanks for the chance to win!

  27. What a cool idea to color paper with coffee – very creative. I actually drink hot tea, not coffee. I’m a lightweight. I will occasionally drink a cheap gas station cappuccino when I want to warm up when I am out and about.

  28. Great layout and journal pages!
    I like a mocha most of all, so I’ll go with sweet!
    Thanks for being a Super Sponsor!

  29. So excited to see you as a new sponsor on the hop! I checked out your store and want everything!! My favorite way to drink coffee is with half coffee and half plain, warm milk. Simple and easy.

    1. My mother in law got me a milk frother for Christmas last year and now I feel super fancy when I use it! (I use it with Half and Half though) and it has an option to just heat the milk without spinning it too.

  30. Love the layout! I order mine ‘regular’ – which, for those who are not from Boston, translates to with plenty of cream and sugar.

  31. I like my coffee with flavored creamer, or using our milk frother. I’m not too picky, as long as it’s hot and fresh! Thanks so much for sponsoring.

  32. I drink decaf coffee w/3 sugar packets and tons of cream. A nice chocolate chip cookie (w/more chips than dough!) on the side, goes really well w/coffee.

  33. Gorgeous palette on this pretty layout! Thanks for sharing the vidoe for the pages. I stopped drinking coffee in my 20s, my fave is flavoured green tea.

    1. Congrats Andre! You are the winner of the National Coffee Day giveaway for my blog! You win a $30 gift certificate to Piece Craft Love!I will be reaching out to you via email in a few so be on the lookout for that!

  34. A nice layout and that was fun to see your art journal work. I don’t are journal but I am thinking more about trying it. Freedom to just do. I drink black coffee. I used to have more in it but now just black most of the time.

  35. Amazing coffee inspiration! I usually drink black coffee. I occasionally get a Vanilla Sweet Cream Cold Brew from Starbucks. Thanks for being a Super Sponsor!

  36. My coffee always has a chocolate flavoring. Cafe Mocha from a coffee shop, mostly hit but on occasion iced. At home my coffee has a chocolate flavored international delight creamer. My favorite though is Oreo if they bring that back

  37. My favorite is a dark roast coffee.. black! I loved your painting with coffee and that super sweet layout! What a fun hop! Thank you !

  38. I prefer to drink my coffee really sweet with tons of creamer, thanks for being a super sponsor

  39. Beautiful coffee-themed inspiration! Belated wishes for a happy National Coffee Day! Every day could be coffee day around here! Hubby is the coffee drinker in our house and he likes lots of cream, while I stick to herbal tea, chocolatey chai is my fave. Thank you for sponsoring this hop!

  40. Wonderful inspiration! I’m not a coffee drinker – EEK!! I’m a tea lover of all kinds. Thanks for being a sponsor!
