HAPPY Memorial Day to all of your in the U.S.A. Such a wonderful holiday to remember the ones that made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom! I am forever grateful!
It’s Sunday and it's time for a new challenge at The Paper Players!
Our lovely LeAnne is the hostess and she has a wonderful sketch challenge for all of us! I think this sketch is fantastic! I had so many ideas. Can't wait to see yours.
My card is created on a white card base. I cut a Berry Blast panel with a stitched rectangle die. My top rectangle was created with a variety of distress inks on a watercolored panel using the smooshing method. A few splatters were added with the inks. I trimmed this with another rectangle stitched die. I used the Reverse Confetti Clink Cuts for the sentiment and the wine glasses. I stamped the red wine using Fresh Fig ink and the Clink Stamp Set. The "Cheers" sentiment was cut with black and then four times in Berry Blast card stock. I had a scrap of the distress panel left from trimming the rectangle and used it to stamp the rest of the sentiment in black. A white circle was cut using a stitched die to mount the glasses on. A few sparkling clear sequins were added to complete my card.

ReplyDeleteOh you've done that clever DIY DSP again! It's lovely! This stamp set is one that I can relate to - and it will work really well with Merry Merlot, I think. :-) Have a great week.
