Modern Coffee

Hi there, Jenny here on a Monday morning and I'm on the coffee again!!!

Yes I'm drinking it and also re-visiting the Coffee Date stamp set from MFT. 

Last time my card was retro and.... erm... quite bright!! This design is still colourful but has more of an abstract/modern  

edge to it and I was totally inspired by this picture on Pinterest...

 Those solid shapes of colour have such an impact and I knew I wanted to try 

it with this set straight away.

I arranged the images in my stamp press and used Memento ink to stamp them, that way I knew 

the black wouldn't smudge when I added the colour on top. I used strips of masking tape to make

 the random shapes and daubed on distress inks.

I had left the stamps mounted in the stamp press so I returned the panel of card to the exact same position 

and re-stamped the images in black Versafine ink to give a deeper black line.

The Mama Elephant Occasional Labels has a great choice of sentiments and they were perfectly sized to fit 

the space left. I stamped them on a scrap of white card and trimmed around them with a craft knife

 and ruler.... that way they look more like Dymo labels.

  

Thanks for stopping By :)
