Little Blue Button Crafty Monday:
"Some Coffee"

Hi crafty friends! I have another creation to share with you using one of the new releases for May from Little Blue Button. For this project, I used "Some Coffee" digital stamp and I did a little experimenting with backgrounds--much improvement is left to be had! haha! Anyway, I hope that you like it!

I colored the image and background elements with my copics. Honestly, I'm not a big fan of how the trees came out! They look a bit like amplified shamrocks to tell you the truth-haha! I hope you'll like my coloring of the main image called "Some coffee".
