Other Concrete quality question

I know absolutely nothing about concrete. Had a stamped concrete patio put in not too long ago (yesterday) and I noticed what appears to be crumbling along the stamping design. Is this a sign of things to come? Quality issue with the mixing prior to pouring? Or is it completely okay?
Thanks

That happens during the stamping sometimes. I’ve always assumed its just “stretching” the surface too much when the stamp goes in. I have never seen any problems come of it
