My Favorite Drink

 

 Hello Monday, my friends! And welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. Thank you for joining us for the  A BIT O'GREEN  Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is: FOOD or DRINK

Of course, I had to focus on my favorite drink....well, it must be since I have several cups a day...coffee! I get my freshly roasted beans from Upstate Coffee roasters, grind it at home, and make a pour over.  

I began with an ink smooshed background of Honey ink. 

Now, this trio of Pawsitively Saturated inks just calls out to be used with a coffee theme - Latte, Cappuccino, and Mocha. 

Then, I wanted to try out some new media from Dina Wakley - there's a lot of fluorescent going on with these Media Gloss Dropper mediums. 

Next up, some edging with Scorched Timber... 

Then, spritzing the page with drops, giving it about 30 seconds, and lifting with a paper towel. I love this spotty effect.  

Browns intermingled with brights... 

Now, it's time to  add images from Stamperia's Coffee and Chocolate paper line and ephemera. 

 

Yes...I always have time for a cuppa...a bit of hand lettered journaling

Are you enjoying your morning cuppa? What are you having - coffee? tea? hot chocolate? 

Enjoy your cuppa today!
