T stands for Today Journal

Thought I'd take a moment and do my T(ea) post before going to bed.  It is 11 PM and that's almost Tuesday.......and I know Elizabeth the Altered Book Lover isn't going to mind. Grin
This is the first page of a journal I call "Today", every page starts with "Today" and has some reference to a drink or a drinking vessel, it is a 5" x 7" in size.  As you can see by the lower left hand corner I started this last month.  I didn't draw the cup or the crown, I traced around some die cuts I made....no really I did!  This journal came about thinking of  T(ea) Stands for Tuesday and the showing of our drinks, and I have just the same ole cups (usually full of coffee) or the bottles of water.  Now how many times do you want to see them over and over again??  So I started this journal for the days that I really am not drinking anything different or exciting................or, like tonight, I'm just too tired.  Besides I just tossed the empty water bottle in the recycle bin......LOL

I have discovered that I really like this size, as I can throw it in my purse when I know I'm going to be sitting for a time.  Like last week at the car wash,  the cover has a pocket that I keep the die cuts in and before they were finished with the truck I had already inked in everything.  That page is still waiting for some color.......but Hey, it's there!

So now I'm off to dream land, I'll make the rounds in the morning to see what your drinking this week

Ok, so not to break, or crack any rules................................
I was drinking from this cup earlier today.  I know it was THIS cup because I only own one of them.....LOL

Nite All!

Actually, you would NOT be breaking any rules if you showed a cup in your art journal. This is really lovely, and I look forward to seeing more of these over the next few months, years, etc. I was thrilled you were able to take time out of your now busier than ever schedule to post. And it was a joy to see your art and drawings. Thanks for sharing this for T this Tuesday. And yes, it's Tuesday in both our worlds (grin).

Hello and Happy T Day! What a fun and pretty journal page. I like the "today" theme too, could do that with anything and would be fun. Can't wait to see more of your pages. Totally love your mug and the cute spoon holder on it, clever. Have a great day.

I love the quote, "Today I will drink tea and wear a crown." Ahh, oh princess-y! And I love those mugs with the built in spoon rest. I have a few myself. Happy T-day!

The journal is such a good idea. I look forward to seeing how you use it in the future. That's a cool cup you are using too.

That is a fun theme for your journal. I struggled to really define mine, but now that I did, the ideas come much easier. I love that mug no matter how many times you show it! Hope you got a good rest!
