Coffee Time – Elle’s Studio

Hello!  Hope you are having a great week! I am back with my last layout for my guest spot with Elle’s Studio!  I have thoroughly enjoyed myself, I loved using the October kit and want to thank Elle, Meghann and you all for having me!

For my 8.5×11 layout, I wanted to use the super cute Coffee items!  I got out my mixed media (Vicki Boutin) and mixed and made all sorts of painty puddles and splatters.  I used the bottom of a jar dipped in paint to make coffee circle stains!

I chose a photo I took late this summer while we were out for lunch.  I added a bit of text in photoshop before I printed it.  It occurred to me that I only take coffee photos when I am out and about, so I decided to make my page about that!  I typed my journaling in photoshop as well and printed that out and cut it into strips.

To embellish I added the typed word strips (so many great sayings on this sheet!) puffy stars and dots in grey and black and the wood veneer coffee cups, which I LOVE!!

I backed my photo with two of the journal tags and tucked in the perfect cup label at the top of my photo, along with the cream + sugar sticker!  I love how my page turned out, I quite possibly wouldn’t have made a page about this photo, but Elle’s unique designs inspired a story to be told!!
