Good Morning everyone
I am honoured to be starting on the design team at We Love Stamping
and the theme for this month is Vintage. Slightly outside my comfort Zone but decided to use this fab vintage coffee grinder stamp, using kraft card and a bit of old lace to add to the vintage feel.
5x5" kraft card base with i rounded the corners on. I took a smaller piece of cream cardstock and again rounded the corners and stamped the image with a dark brown ink, i stamped the image again onto more of the cream and kraft card. On the cream version i watercoloured the flowers with distress inks and on the kraft version i added a little colour with vintage photo distress ink and a touch of pistachio oxide ink and cut them out. I also stamped and coloured some coffee beans.
On the base image i splattered on some of the inks i used to colour the images, added a strip of kraft card and the lace and adhered to the card front. I added the flowers and coffee grinder with glue gel for a little dimension. Added the coffee beans to finish.
Just a close up. This is a great image with the good morning to say hello to a friend and maybe a catch up over a coffee or two
