Floral District Happy Hour

It's been a while since I stamped and posted anything, but I had to create a fun card for a friends upcoming birthday, so it was just the excuse I needed to get in my studio and stamp! I used the super cute set Happy Hour along with a few goodies from the new Holiday Mini Catalog.

I used the new Window Frames Framelits to cut out the two layering shapes and then the Festive Paper Piercing pack to easily add some detail. I colored the glass image with my VersaMarker (which unfortunately is retired from SU!...but you could use a blender pen and VersaMark re-inker to do this) and embossed it with Clear EP to make it shiny like a glass...see the close up when the light hits it.

I got my color combo of Baja Breeze, Rose Red, Rich Razzleberry & Tangerine Tango from the fun print in the Floral District pack of DSP. I was also inspired by a M&T shown in a recent Stampin' Success for my layout. Even with all this inspiration, since I hadn't stamped for a while it seemed to take me forever just to create this one card! Tomorrow one of my friends is coming over to stamp, so hopefully I will find my mojo and have more to share here again soon.

Hope you are enjoying the summer! Thanks for stopping by today!
