the smell of freshly ground heaven...

last week at tag tuesday the prompt was cups and cutlery and i went with a tea party theme.  this week the prompt is coffee and tea. well, i pretty much went with just the coffee...

because it really does smell like freshly ground heaven!  when i was growing up a coffee pot was ALWAYS on.  so it is a smell i associate with homey things.

vintage lady from the steampunk girls collage sheet by lunagirl. the white coffee pot is from delicious doodles and all the rest of the images are from coosty creations -- the latter two products are sold by stitchy bear digital images.

linking to try it on tuesday and the current challenge to "make us smile."

enjoy and love to all.

at the seaside...

the ocean and the beach are about my favorite things.  so i love the challenge prompt at tag tuesday this week which is "at the seaside."

i also love mermaids and other fanciful creatures so i went with a fantasy theme for my tag.  images and background are from gecko galz.  the crab, fishes and sand border are stickers from my stash.

happy summer (or happy winter if you are southern hemisphere -- you can still dream of the beach!)

i'm linking to try it on tuesday since we are invited to share where we'd like to spend a holiday and to delicious doodles for the "beside the sea" challenge.

love to all.
