Coffee Love

 

Coffee Tribute Journal Page by Stacey Dunning

I was 17 when I fell in love with coffee.  Of course at that time I was using whipping cream and lots of sugar and loved it as a liquid desert.  Now I just love coffee any old way hot or iced, dark or light.  I love the smell of the fresh ground beans and the sound the coffee maker makes.  I used this journal page to record my thoughts as well as play with some different Gelato colors and practice blending with PITT markers over the gesso covered paged of the book.  The stamps used are mostly from the Blockheads Coffee Tea stamp set and the new Journaling stamp set.  I simply drew some patches of color using the water soluble Gelato paints and wiped them over the pages with a wet rag.  I used Memento, StazOn and VersaMagic inks to stamp onto the treated pages.
