Crafting By Carol: Coffee With You, Art Impressions

Hello friends! It's week two of the Coffee Card Challenge over at Art Impressions. My card today uses the Coffee BFFs set, and I made a scene!!!

I stamped the girls in Copic safe ink and colored them with the markers listed below. I also stamped the bottom portion of the image onto some masking paper and fussy cut just the leg portion of the chairs out. I added it to the stamped image and then stamped the floor (all products listed below) in the same ink. I extended the lines of the floor with a Memento marker.

Here are a couple photos of the bead board wall I drew in with a pencil and ruler. (You can also spy the mysterious smudge in the upper left! Have NO idea how that happened!) After I drew the pencil lines, I used a couple gray markers to add some shading. I did this before I drew in the permanent lines because I wanted to use the finer tip of a Micron 005 pen and didn't know if it's Copic safe or not. Then I used two blue markers to color in the rest of the wall.

To cover the smudge, I stamped the sentiment on some scrap paper and used a ruler and pencil to draw a frame around it. Once I was satisfied, I went over the pencil lines with the Micron pen, fussy cut it out, and adhered it with glue. I added the finished panel (cut to 3-¾" x 5") onto a gray layer, and then added that to a top-fold A2 card base.
