The challenge over at Mix it Monthly is coffee. I'm more of a tea drinker myself, but I couldn't resist... Plus, a few weeks ago, I bought a painting from PiaRom/Connie, who
sent it to me with a lovely assortment of napkins including the coffee
napkin in this journal page. A not so subtle hint I guess!
This page is the other side of the road trip page I prepped for my artsy trip in March. It already had the signposts (from a terrific stencil designed by Teri Stegmiller), but I added the cups and the sentiment: "Live your sweet life one cup at a time." The teacups are from a new Stencil Girl stencil that's in the works .... stay tuned! In the background are Mary Nasser's map 6 stencil and my Medieval Leaves stencil.
Check out all the great designs at Mix it Monthly!
Your comments make me so happy and let me know you were here. I read and treasure every comment and will happily answer any questions as soon as I can.
