Good morning!
I love my Starbucks. I saw an ATC swap called Spectacular Starbucks over at AFA and couldn't help but sign up for it.
I used a lot of recycled items for these.

The recycled bits on this one are the logo and the coffee sleeve on the cup is actually from a coffee sleeve. The rays are gold metallic acrylic paint. It's hard to see in the pic but they are very shiny and shimmery.

For this one I ripped up and layered a Starbucks napkin. I like the texture and random bits of text. The logo is from a brochure.

| Title: Not Just Coffee |
This one is in honor of my daughter. She loves the Very Berry Hibiscus with lemonade instead of water (try it - it's delish!). I have a stash of the mix for her at home. I took the cup and title off the cardboard packaging and then tried my hand at drawing a lemon wedge.

Ultra-recycled! I have no idea what made me think of doing this (probably because I was running out of ideas and materials), but most of the bits on this one are from a coffee bean bag. I've been collecting coffee bean bags for a couple of years. I saw a bag on Pinterest (damn that Pinterest!) made of them and hope to some day make one, but in the mean time I raided my stash and cut one up for this. I ran the background through my Big Shot to get a burlap-ish, coffee bag-like texture.
Here is a totally random ATC that has nothing to do with coffee. Corrie over at SDC put up a challenge to use pink and orange this week. I started with pink and orange on this but then blue snuck in.
Thanks for stopping by today. I hope the sun is shining where you are. It's thinking about it here in Seattle.
