Don't Mind If I do!!!

Now onto my second challenge card today!

Ooooh, I've had such creativity flowing through my veins it's painful!!

Let's face it, nothing else happens round here lately so entering into challenges is the highlight of my days!

Actually, that's not quite true.
I get up each morning looking forward to getting into my craftroom and pulling some inspiration from deep inside me until real life kicks in and I find myself checking Facebook, paying bills, housework and general rubbishness! Eventually, I'm FREE to indulge my passion - cardmaking, scrapbooking and ......drinking martinis (but I don't do that during the day and not even in the evenings these days :( ).
which brings me perfectly round to this card I made for the second challenge!
The theme is DRINK - alcoholic, tea, pop, water..whatever, so this is my entry.

I used Kraft card for the card base and stamped a generic Celebrate stamp onto cream card which i mounted onto aubergine card.
I stamped the card with a bunch of grapes stamp and a Martini glass stamp.
I coloured in the grapes and glass using my Spectrum Noir markers LV1, LV2 , LV5, LG1 & LG2.

A little bit of DecoArt Glamour Dust for sparkle, purple ribbon and a few gems to decorate.
In fact, the purple, metal framed gem on the ribbon was taken from a bracelet which my daughter bought from a charity shop for pennies. I had 12 and now about 7. We love bargains!
So, this card is clean and simple yet again.

TBH, these photos don't do it justice! It's much more sparkly on my craft table x

I'm entering it into this challenge :- Daring Cardmakers  DRINK

  1. The colours on your card are beautiful. I instantly thought of red wine ... so the Martini glas at the bottom is an interessting surprise! Thanks for taking part in the Daring Cardmaker's dare.
