Coffee Cafe - Love U A Latte

My oldest grandson, Chandler, loves Starbucks and I love him!!  So a page was created from the love of both.  The colors in this suite worked out great for us both.  Dark colors for him, with a hint of blue for me

Starbucks gift cards have become a tradition for me to give him at Christmas.  So when I saw this suite, I knew I was going to create a scrapbook page. However, his birthday is coming up soon and even though he already has his birthday gift...we can always have Starbucks for an extra treat.


There is no picture on this page yet, as I will take one next week when we make our way to the coffee place of his dreams...literally!!!



For the page title, I used the Stampin' Up! Large Letter Framelits for the "U A Latte", and the "love" from the Sunshine Wishes Thinlets.  I went back and forth with the "A", leave it or keep it.  This was due to the title placement.  But what I love about scrapbooking is, it's your page!!  It's art!! You can have your title on one, two or even three lines.


I took the coffee bean stamp and inked it up in Early Espresso, then added a bottom border to my journaling card.

And keeping the rule of three, I added three different coffee cups to the side.   I have hot cocoa in one of them, as I don't drink cofee....was that a "WHAT?!" I just heard?  Yes, I do not drink coffee but I love tea, it's close enough.

Under the picture mat, I used three different ribbons.  This is what I love about Stampin' Up!  Not only is it quality product, everything COORDINATES!!! Including the accessories, like the Corrugated Elements.  On this page, I used the heart and tag on my cups.


Back to the ribbons, I used the 3/8" Burlap Ribbon, 3/8" Shimmer Ribbon in Pool Party, and the 3/8" Classic Weave Ribbon in Crumb Cake.

I also used Whisper White, Pear Pizzaz, Soft Sky, Soft Suede, and Early Espresso Cardstock to complete the elements and photo mats.

This suite was gorgeous to use, and if you would love to play with it too send me a note.  Or follow the link at the top to my online store, but fair warning U will Love a Latte!!!
