It's time to get "A Little Bit Dark" with Team Lou & the Southern Girls

It's time for another challenge with us at the Southern Girls.

This fortnight Team Lou have created projects to inspire you for the new challenge

A Little Bit Dark with Team Lou

Oddball Art


Krafters Cart

Today I have used the Cafe Mummy digital stamp by Oddball Art, one of our generous sponsors this fortnight.

How could I not add some fun coffee sentiments to this steaming coffee image?

I had a couple of different coffee phrases in my stash and they both worked perfectly, so of course I had to make two cards.  I used the phrases to make billboards for the mummy to sit on.  I overlaid the image, added some bats, printed, heat set, trimmed, then coloured with Copic markers.  I tried several different combinations for the fabric strips wrapping the mummy.  I'm really pleased how well the E53 and W3 markers worked together.

Here are another couple of photos,
you can click on them to view in full screen.

   

What do you think?
I'm sure that's what the Cafe Mummy is thinking!
