So I had these friends Victoria and Jenni. We would meet almost weekly for craft days. Some days we'd actually craft. Some days we'd just talk and eat. You never knew. Thursdays were always fun because I knew to expect some girl time on craft day.
Then I moved.
:(
I miss them and our craft days. But before I left Jenni bought us all a matching mug. A friendship mug she called it. So we could remember each other every time we use it.

Of course I loved it so much that I had to scrapbook it. I just thought that was one of the nicest gestures anyone had done for me. Gosh, I miss those girls. And I do think of them every time I use it.
I stamped a bunch of friendship quotes alongside the photo:
I added a gold-embossed chipboard heart, a gold framed heart, an Epiphany Crafts epoxy, and a flair for my embellies.

Oh, and see those faux coffee stains? I just dipped my embossing powder jar in brown ink, misted it with water and then stamped it down to get a coffee stain look.

How lovely that you have friendship mugs! Love the layout you made.
The 'coffee stains' are a perfect touch! What a sweet story and I would've scrapbooked a pic of the mug as well!
What a fabulous idea - hopefully, you will find some more crafty friends. I know how much fun it is to craft with friends:-)
What a great LO. Love how you did the "coffee stains". Sorry you are missing your friends. I just got together today with may BFF. She moved across the state 3 years ago and we only see each other a couple times a year. Thank God for cell phones and computers!
Such a great layout! Great tribute to your friendship!
Fabulous layout - love how you celebrated these friendships!
