I used stamps, and white, black, blue and gold pens. I tore the words to the song - Java Jive by Manhattan Transfer - and partly covered them with watered down paint. Items used to apply paint were spatula, edge of card, splatter, scrunched baking paper, bubble wrap, brushes, and fingers. I like this little feature cup but it didn't show up enough stamped directly and painted so I simply stamped it on card and cut it out. I wanted this sweet little mug to be the star without being in your face.
