Fall Coffee Lovers Blog Hop
Hard to believe it is time for another coffee lovers bloghop
I decided to decorate and make a coffee themed rock for this hop.
I chose this rock because of the flat surface. I liked the colors of gray and brown in the rock. It made me think of vintage images. I cleaned the rock with water and dried it off.

I decided to decorate and make a coffee themed rock for this hop.
I chose this rock because of the flat surface. I liked the colors of gray and brown in the rock. It made me think of vintage images. I cleaned the rock with water and dried it off.
I chose some designer paper that had a vintage look. I stamped
STAMPlorations FRAMED TEACUPS
I cut some of the frame off so it would fit the rock.
I could have just added it like this and it would have been pretty, but I wanted to make it just a little bit MORE interesting.
I then cut out the individual cups.
I glued the cups to the original stamped image.
See ... don't the additional patterns on the cups make it just a little MORE interesting?
I stamped the sentiment using
STAMPlorations ANYWHERE THERE"S COFFEE set
I then used Mod Podge to adhere them to the rock. I also added several layers of Mod Podge to seal the rock. I added gold metallic rub to enhance the rocks texture.
If you liked any of the stamps I used you can get them HERE.
