if this doesn't wake you up...nothing will! lol!
it's bright and full of caffeine! lol! I stamped the image from Coffee Delights and colored it in with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and then die cut them out with the coordinating dies! I also added some details with a white gel pen.

I also backed the image with some vellum and fussy cut around it to add some extra dimension.
for the background, I did lots of ink blending with Distress Inks in Picked Raspberry, Dried Marigold, Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn, Mermaid Lagoon and Blueprint Sketch. then I used the Mugs Stencil and the same colors, but with more pressure and the same colors to create the tone-on-tone colors. I splattered some water on top and also some black ink.

lastly, I heat embossed the sentiment in white onto black cardstock and then popped it up with foam tape.
be sure to check out the card up on the Newton's Nook Designs blog.
enjoy!
