This week for the My Grafico challenge we were given these yummy things to work with:
The papers are the Falling For Autumn papers from Cupcake Cutiees
The images are the Breakfast images from JD Digi Designs:
I used the sketch from EBTKS:
I used the colors from The Shabby Tea room challenge:
The challenge is embossing and I cheated by recycling some corrugated cardboard from a picture frame. The ledger stamp is Unity, the label is cut with the Spellbinders Scrap-Mart Exclusive die and the letter stickers are Cosmo Cricket. I put the coffee cup on foam squares. This is also for the Tuesday Throwdown - anything goes.
