Spring Coffee Lovers Blog Hop - Super Sponsor!

It's time for the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop, and I'm honored to be a Super Sponsor again! Keep reading to find out how you can win one of two handmade prizes, and receive a special coupon code for my online store!


In case you're new to my blog, I'll tell you a little about me.  I adore Winnie the Pooh, randomly burst into song, and love fun socks. I'm a working artist (see my commissioned pet portraits HERE), have my own line of stamps, papers and stencils at Impression Obsession, and I'm the Artist in Residence at Splitcoaststampers. I have an online store where you'll find prints of my original artwork as well as notecards, jewelry, upcycled bags, and other items. I've been blogging here since 2006 and I'm a serial creator!


I had started this little canvas a few months ago when my coffee pot stencil was released - it began with a gel print and needed more layers and some touch ups. I filled in the image base with the same acrylic paint, then shaded with brown acrylic paint and added highlights with a colored pencil and acrylic paint pen. I painted in a shadow and horizontal line, then used matte gel to add in a couple of paper scraps and a die cut word. I used a Pitt pen to shade around the die cut, then stenciled in the clouds in the background. (I'm hosting the Mix-Ability challenge today at Splitcoaststampers, and the theme is Clouds in My Coffee! Perfect.)  One lucky commenter will win this mini canvas (4" x 6")!


Products used:

This week be sure to check out my Etsy store for coffee themed items and more - prints and necklaces make great gifts! I've got glue pins and craft and coffee themed purse charms as well (contact me about custom designs too!). Clicking the graphic below will add a 20% coupon to your cart when you spend $20 or more. Thank you!


use code COFFEE20 for your discount!

My 2nd prize this week is a handmade mini tote bag in a coffee theme! My bags all feature upcycled, vintage, and thrifted textiles - this little bag is made from some leftover quilt scraps and kit pieces, thrifted strap and fabric, a valance, a pant leg, and some upholstery samples. The bag is about 10.5" wide with a 3" base - great size for some books or a project on the go.

  41. I LOVE everything you do - no matter which craft it is. Your canvas is just wonderful as is your coffee tote. I have sewn my entire life, but sadly, not since the card/stamp business came into play. Oh, how I do miss it, especially now with grandchildren and daughters-in-law who would like to learn to sew. Maybe someday -- Love all your inspiration and thanks so much for the chance to win!!! Sharon Johnson - Stamp Simply - sharon@stampsimply.com
