Cocktails!

I needed a birthday card for a friend who has a birthday in late December and a cocktail card fitted the bill perfectly.  My background is made with the Pink Fresh quadrant stencil and die using various Distress Oxides colours with the stencil.

I then cut a card base using the die as the front , then foam dots to layer up my coloured die cut.

The cocktail is a stamp by Tim Holtz that I stamped, fussy cut and coloured with my Zig brush markers. The sentiment is hot foiled and from Pink Fresh and lastly I added a few sequins for sparkle.

 I am adding this card to the Wednesday challenge over at Simon Says as my Pink Fresh die and stencil are new.

Wishing all my followers a very Happy New Year .

Poinsettia

I have this new Quadrant foiling plate from Pink Fresh and I spent some time creating some backgrounds with it.  I decided to make another Christmas card as the design is perfect to show off other images.

This poinsettia stamp is an old woodblock stamp with dies from Hero Arts,  which I inked and embossed 3 images in rose gold to match the background foiling, I then coloured with Zig Brush markers and die cut the layers.  I also die cut the leafy sprig to layer up under my flower. Again this is an older die and I am not even sure where its from. The sentiment is also foiled, I then just added some sparkly gems.
 

I shall add this card to the monthly challenge over at the Pink Fresh blog.

Unfortunately I have caught a nasty cold and am keeping warm indoors, I should be out getting my last minute shopping but thats going to have to wait till next week now.
