Hello everyone! I’m on the Evalicious blog today, showing you my layout all about the coffee! When Eve showed us the new products in the shop, I was so excited to see the Life’s Sweet collection, because lately I’ve been all about the coffee!
I’ve had a Keurig machine since fall of 2010. A few months ago the water pump on it started having issues. I was going to purchase a new Keurig, but after having really great fresh-roasted coffee beans, we decided to purchase a coffee grinder, an electric kettle, and a pour-over contraption instead. Now my homemade coffee every morning is so good that I often don’t even add any sugar!
I used the new Faux Cork Puffy Alphas for my title. The brown colors seemed perfect for a coffee-themed layout! I also just love Life’s Sweet Wood Veneer V1, because that little latte with a cute face is my favorite! I stamped the latte cup from Addicted To You Clear Stamp Set and the coffee cup from Morning Coffee Clear Stamp Set onto white cardstock. Then I colored them with my new Copic markers. (Another new addiction, sigh!) Then I fussy-cut them out with scissors and adhered them to my layout using foam adhesive to pop them up.
I anchored the top and bottom of my layout with two wood veneers from Life’s Sweet Wood Veneer V2. I also used two journal cards from Life’s Sweet Large Tags, one for journaling and one on the bottom of my layout as word art embellishment.
I stamped a bunch of sentiments from both stamp sets onto the bottom white strip of my photos. I love seeing them together and lined up like this!
I hope you enjoyed a look at my layout using the Life’s Sweet collection! I’m beyond excited about all the new products in the Evalicious shop and can’t wait to create more projects with them!

Love this! I absolutely love her new line! Thanks so much for sharing the code! My keurig broke also...we were thinking of buying another one, but we figured since we don't drink coffee (I'm a tea person) and we only had the keurig for guest, so we decided to just use my old coffee maker/pot for guest since they are far and few. I'm a boba and tea person so this set was perfect for me! Thanks for always inspiring!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Claudi!
Deletelove your layout Christine. Especially the stamping on the photo mats.
ReplyDeleteI want to know more about that sea salt iced coffee!
Now that's finally warm-ish in Boston, I've switched to making cold brew iced coffee at home. I make a triple batch of Smitten Kitchen's recipe and I'm set for the week.
Hi Christi! The iced sea salt coffee is a specialty at a SoCal Taiwanese bakery called 85C. We've heard the rage about it and went to check it out, because they recently opened one in San Diego. They put some sea salt into the coffee, and they top it with sweetened cream. You shake it to mix it up before inserting the straw into it. It is DELICIOUS! You can read/hear an old NPR article on it: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=127474607
DeleteI will be trying out cold brew coffee very soon! Probably in a week or two. I'll make sure to check out Smitten Kitchen's recipe!
I think I recognize one of your latte photos! This is an incredible layout...and I am very interested in the pour over, fresh ground beans, no sugar, great tasting coffee!
