Welcome to Create with Connie and Mary’s Creatively Simple Challenge! Each month Mary and I will pick a theme. This month the theme is Goodbye! We will design our cards using this theme of retiring products!
WHISKEY BUSINESS
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Cajun Craze cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- A 3-3/4 x 5 layer of Basic White cardstock was stamped with the greeting from Whiskey Business stamp set in Cajun Craze Ink.
- A 1-1/4 x 3-3/4 piece of Textured Chic Designer Paper was added across the front. (I love how this looked with the “whiskey” color!)
- The whiskey decanter and glass were stamped with Memento Black Ink, then colored with Daffodil Delight, Cajun Craze and Light Pool Party Stampin’ Blends. The rind with Dark Daffodil Delight Blends. Everything was hand-cut, then added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- A trio of Champagne Rhinestones were added to the background. I am REALLY going to miss these!
A pretty quick card to make for the bourbon/whiskey lover in your life! Make sure to check out Mary’s Creatively Simple card over on Create with Connie and Mary!
