When All Else Fails ... Drink Coffee!

Autumn is here and so are the endless cups of coffee to keep me warm, some days I even get to treat myself to a trip to my local coffee shop for a special one.

Today I am here to share a layout with you documenting my all time favourite drink ... the flat white.  This coffee pictured was one of the best ones I had while visiting Bondi Beach, NSW (not my local BTW!!)

RRBF Mini Theme Graduation - You're A Star

RRBF Mini Theme Graduation - Graduation Snippets

RRBF Mini Theme Graduation - Die Cut Pack

RRBF Corrugated Card

I used the Ruby Rock-it Graduation Mini Theme again as I just love the mix of natural colours.

The words and phrases printed on the papers fitted perfectly too ... I mean there is 'no time like the present' to enjoy a coffee is there!!??

I loved the clipboard in the die cut pack a fun little way of adding journalling.  The corrugated card makes a fantastic background mat for your photos too!

Remember To Wake Up

Each school morning we are always asking what the time is.  Have we enough time to have another coffee or grab some more breakfast.  

My daughter had decorated her room and needed a clock to help her know the time as she got ready in the morning!

I was inspired by the colours and theme she had chosen and the Memories Mini Theme fitted in just perfectly.  The clock started life very plain and I sanded it down before I decorate the outside covering it in the papers.

Products Used :

Bella! Memories Mini Theme - Vintage Floral

Bella! Memories Mini Theme - Memory Lane

Bella! Memories Mini Theme - Die Cuts

Bella! Memories Mini Theme - 3D Stickers

Bella! Bling Fabric Trim - Pink

Fundamental Wood Veneer - Numbers

Fundamental Wood Vaneer - Stars and Hearts

Around the edges of the front I added some of the Fabric Trim from the Fundamentals range.  This softened the edges of the clock.  

The little wood veneer numbers fitted perfectly around the clock face and I love the mix with the Roman numerals.

The die cut packs in the mini themes have soooo many create things that can be used so I decorated the bottom of the clock with them.  I used the flower and butterfly on the pendulum inside the glass so it looks like it is flying when it ticks!
