Before showing you the cards created during Sessions 3 and 4 of the recent Virtual Retreat I hosted in my Facebook group, I need to mention that thanks to Lena of Lena's Creations, I've found a new Email Subscription provider... Follow.It.  So, if you've not yet followed me by email, or indeed unsubscribed after the news that Feedburner were discontinuing their service, enter your email address in the box on the side bar of my blog.

Now, back to the cards.  First, a masculine offering...

For the finale, I offered coffee and tea, though after 4 live demos in about 21 hours, I needed something stronger!

Hi everyone, 

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know! 

The card I'm sharing with you today is one I created for a friend who started a baking business in lockdown and also loves coffee...

When I saw Linda Williams' new coffee and tea themed release, they were absolutely perfect for my friend, so I've used 3 of the Grovi plates here...
