Breakfast in New London layout for Sketches in Thyme

Welcome

I hope you are having a great day.  This breakfast in New London, CT was a great day.  I always oh and ah over sweet breakfast pastries.  But logic wins most of the time, I didn't have any of these delicious goodies.  I opted for an egg and cheese sandwich on croissant. We ate outside watching the water, not sure if I have posted my pages of the outside photos yet. Don't worry I will get to it soon.    

Here is the sketch from Sketches in Thyme Facebook Challenge Group.

I did a lot to this page. First I stamped and embossed the coffee cups.  Next I started on the background.  I stenciled coffee beans and stamped coffee rings.  Finally I splattered the background with shimmer spray.

I cut down the photos as small as would work and matted in brown card stock.  I trimmed the background card stock and matted on brown card stock.  I adhered the fussy cut coffee cups with pop dots. I finalized the layout with sticker letters for the title.

Ingredients:

Tim Holtz Coffee Time

Anna Griffin Chocolate ink

clear embossing powder

Coffee Ring stamp from stash

Stampin Up Chocolate Chip ink

Gina Marie Designs coffee stencil

Distress Ink Walnut Stain

Bazzill Gemstone card stock

Tattered Angels shimmer spray

Creative Memories sticker letters

brown card stock

Thank you for reading today. Play along with Sketches in Thyme Facebook Challenge Group until September 30.

Gorjuss Witch card with Creative Memories Hocus Pocus papers

Welcome to October!  It's my favorite month of the year.  I was so excited to use my "new to me" witch dies. I purchased these second hand with no packaging.  Therefore, I just did my best with google to identify them.  I recognize the "gorjuss" look.  I used a combination of card stock and alcohol markers on white cardstock to create her.

Here is the sketch I used from Tuesday Morning Sketches.

I created the moon from two Spellbinders nesting circle dies and some Distress ink.  I free handed the flag.

Ingredients:

Gorjuss "The Hour" Witch dies

Creative Memories Hocus Pocus 6x6 papers

Alcohol markers: 

Copic Neutral Gray N4 and N6

Copic E02 and another flesh I didn't record info

Distress inks: Squeezed Lemonade and Fossilzed Amber

Spellbinders Nesting Circle dies

various papers and card stock including Bazzill

gems
