Paris and Lattes

I hope everyone in blog land had a wonderful weekend!! We got some much needed rain last night so for that I am very thankful.   Preschool starts this week and the rest of the kids go back the following.  We are slowly going to start going to bed early and the same with getting up.  The kids are all ready to see their friends again.
There is a new challenge up at The CMC Copic Challenge Group and it runs until August 31st.  This time the challenge is to us Black and Dark Grays on your image.  There are also a few more days to take advantage of the summer sale at the CMC Class Room so don't miss out.  Our sponsor this week is Milk Coffee Digis and they are offering the winner a $15.00 gift certificate to their shop.
I finally decided to get started on my Smash book that has been sitting on the shelf for 6 months.  I just love this girl from Milk Coffee -Tiffany.  She looked so cute and stylish with her latte I decided to add a Paris background stamp by Make It Crafty.  I tried to give the background a light water color effect using my Copics.
 The tape, journal page and book are all Smash products.  I cut the "Travel" out with my Slice and even added a little coffee stain on my doily to make it look authentic:) I had a lot of fun coloring this one.
