Hello Again
and
Welcome Back For another Mail Art Monday!!!
Ok, So I have a confession... Yes, I am addicted to Coffee!!!
I got a Keurig for Christmas, and Now I'm Crazy addicted! So if you are like me grab a cup of White Chocolate Caramel Cappuccino and lets get Crafty!!!
(stamps used listed at the bottom)
I started with a standard plain white A2 Envelope. I started by measuring out where I wanted my quote stamp, then I stamped it in Versamark Ink. Then I used black embossing powder so that It would stand out. Next, I stamped the coffee cup in black StaZon ink in Jet black, then masked it off so that I could work on the background.

I inked the background in frayed burlap distress ink, then I stamped the waybill/invoice randomly over the envelope. Next, using Vintage photo distress ink I stamped the coffee ring stain, and double coffee ring stain. (Before I stamped them on the envelope, I spritzed them with water so that the ink would be a little more drippy).

Ok, now remove the mask.
I used vintage photo, and frayed burlap ink on my craft mat to water color the coffee cup, and the shadow below the cup.
Well, There you have it.
