Woman enjoying coffee from a teacup

Using a CC licensed image from OpenPhoto.net (photo © pinar for openphoto.net CC:Attribution-ShareAlike) I put together this image of a woman enjoying coffee from a teacup. I started by finding the woman’s face on OpenPhoto, which I imported into Inkscape, bitmap-traced and then edited down. Then, I added a path and sculpted it into a coffee cup. Then, using the pencil tool set to shape: ellipse, I made some steamy translucent wisps. Then, I added the letters on the cup, converted to path, combined, and bent with the LPE: bend. I put gradients just about everywhere: face, cup, text, background.
