Wake up and Smell the Coffee

The current challenge for Sunday Postcard Art... I'm a huge coffee drinker and I've had this lovely set in my stash for years - what a perfect chance to use it.


The images above are all stamps and I've added some shrink plastic spoons at the bottom.  I also had some card left over from the original collection that came with this set which worked well as the background to photograph it on.

M'mmm, I love coffee, too, though I can't have too much caffeine these days, so end up on decaff. Must get myself some coffee stamps. Lovely to see some of your work and those spoons are excellent :-)
