Early Espresso: Latte Love Scrapbook page

I’m thrilled you are here to join us each Wednesday evening for the AWHT Colour Creations Blog Hop showcasing the full range of 50+ gorgeous Stampin’ Up! colours.

Week 23 – Early Espresso

Today I have something a little different… a 12″ x 12″ scrapbook layout for you!

Stampin’ Up! have recently welcomed the Close to my Heart family to join in recent months and with this some scrapbooking inspiration has returned to the Stampin’ Up! range and I am excited to be reinvigorated to scrapbook memories. This one today is of me and my girlfriends who have caught up most Friday mornings for many years, since our kiddos were in primary school and these A Little Latte Designer Series Papers were the perfect choice!

• First, tear the edges of the Pool Party design on both sides and sponge the edges with Pecan Pie ink and adhere it to the Basic White 12″ x 12″ scrapbook page.
• Layer the coffee bean design onto some Early Espresso cardstock and the heart design onto some Pecan Pie cardstock and lay these on the page to work out where to add the stamping of the coffee stains and splatter [Latte Love stamp set] in Early Espresso & Pecan Pie inks.
• Once stamped then adhere these DSPs to the page.
• Layer the 10cm x 10cm photo onto Basic White, Pool Party & Early Espresso cardstock and adhere to the page.
• Die cut the Peacan Pie circle using the Spotlight on Nature dies and sponge the edges.
• Die cut the three coffee cups from the Designer Paper and die cut the coffee pot using Pool Party, Early Espresso cardstock and Window Sheet for the glass, and the spoons from Silver Foil, then adhere these to the page.
• Stamp the sentiment in Versamark ink, add White WOW Embossing powder, tap off the excess and melt it with your Heat Tool.
• Die cut some leaves from Early Espresso cardstock using the Enduring Beauty dies and die cut the sentiment using the circle die and adhere these to your layout.
• To finish off I added some Adhesive-backed Swirl Dots and put it into a White Frame to display.

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Wednesday for inspiration using Flirty Flamingo.

Please enjoy the wonderful inspiration of our next team member, Andrea Sargent.
