The MWLW Coffee DT have been creating with the New Coffee themed Digi's created by the lovely Paola Jofre; owner of MWLW. These digi stamps come as separate images, as well as a 3x4 "Whimsy Notes" for your pocket projects. 

I got to work with Don't Give a Sip! Whimsy Note and it just makes me giggle....Love this image!

I used Squeezed Lemonade, Tea Dye, Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain Distress Inks in the order on watercolor CS- starting in the middle and blending outwards into the darker shades. Edged with the Walnut Stain. I dribbled some water to get a worn, vintage feel to it.


I colored my image with Prismacolor Pencils,
fussy cut it out and applied it to my card base with Mutli Matte Medium. Added the Steam Lines with Faber Castell Black Brush Pitt Pen.
 Finished with some Coffee Bean Stamps from  the Stampin' Up! "Espress Yourself" Set (sadly, it's discontinued)
