In My Head I'm Busy!

It's Tuesday which means it's time to share a project created for Topflight Stamps! This week my teammates and I are showcasing Hobby Arts Ltd.'s fabulous products! 

Since Topflight Stamps is a sponsor of the 2022 Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop, I decided to use the super-cute coffee-sipping cozy sloth from the Sloths Clear Polymer Stamp Set by Hobby Art Ltd. with the polaroid frame from the Sloths Clear Polymer Stamp Set, also by Hobby Art Ltd.

Here's the card!
