Wake up and smell the coffee

I did an online colouring class! It's the first time I've ever followed an online class and as I'm normally not  much of a watcher, whether it's of TV, videos or demos I wasn't sure I would enjoy it. But I loved it.

I had won the class and materials for it when Sweet Sentiment sponsored a giveaway in the Swedish House Facebook group,  and the class was the April one which included this beautiful coffee cup stamp and four matching sentiments.


I coloured the cup and flowers according to the class instructions, except that I have Promarkers rather than Copics, and the thicker tips mean it's going to take me a while to get used to creating the very fine lines used in the video - it's all very different from the techniques I'm used to, and I'm pretty leased with the result for a first attempt.

Keeping on with the coffee theme, I made a background of a stencilled coffee cup top - it's one of the stencils you are supposed to hold over a cup of coffee to sprinkle chocolate powder through  - and some stamped  coffee cup stains then added the sentiment and popped the image on with foam pads.

I am sharing this with

    I think you did a fabulous job of coloring the image. I can't color worth a lick with pens, Copic, etc, so your project looks great to me! Very nice entry into our "Get Your Drink On" challenge at Shopping Our Stash. Thanks for submitting such a pretty project!
    Hugz,
