2. sponged the stencil harlequin with tea dye distress ink in the circle area.
3. Stamped some newspaper stamp with black ink.(its my old stash)
4. Colored the stamped Image from The Alley Way Stamp named Breakfast Club with my copic marker.

  25. Hi Monika, your coffee card is fantastic!! Love the stenciling in the background and the coffee cup looks so good in kraft CS. And your birthday card is totally groovy.

And your Kraft paper cup is so cute! I do have a question, if you don't have a die cut machine then how do get all these beautiful dies? Anyway, however you get them they are used so well. Also VW van is so much fun! It makes a great guy birthday card.
