Around the World on Wednesday--The World Around Us!
/I really think this is a unique and interesting theme…the world around us! I mean one can go in so many directions. When I think of the world around me, I reflect on something that I do a lot of and I came up with drink lattes and take selfies :)
So I wanted to design a page that reflects my coffee loving selfies! I still have to print pictures, which I will admit is highly unusual for me. I almost always have my picture when I design a page!
We have so many awesome stamp sets to support this super fun theme! I started with the Press On stamp set as the to go coffee cup is just the best and the coffee beans make terrific background filler.
Of course I had to use the little coffee cup from the Warm Hugs stamp set as a background accent too.
I chose fun and cheeky phrases to describe my love of a good latte!
If you take time to search through your stamp sets, you might be surprised in the different ways you use them. Take the “Lucky Me” sentiment, it is from the Game on stamp set. And really, sometimes I do feel that way about me coffee :)
I cut the word Coffee using the Playful Alphabet dies and beside its added the phrase “Life is better with you” from the Many Mates stamp set. Who else can relate to feeling this way about your morning coffee? Ha ha ha!
The Nothings Better Than stamp set was another ‘must use’ stamp set in creating these fun pages. I had to stamp the ‘coffee’ stamp in the background!
I found the “I like you a latte’ in the Christmas set, Warm Hugs! And used the dies from the bundle to create a fun layer with some of the Faux Suede ribbon.
The Crumb Cake scallop border under the photo mat is from the Peony dies.
I really hope you enjoyed my take on our theme, The World Around Us! I can’t to see what the other gals in the hop have created, so make sure you visit everyone and please feel free to leave a comment!
