have yourself a merry little cocktail!

hello and happy December!
today I have a fun, whimsical card up on the Newton's Nook Designs blog!

so great, ha!
I needed to make a card for a friend this holiday season with a fun nod to drinks this season, and I just LOVE this set! the puns are my favorite and it's such a fun spin on the holiday spirit! lol!

I stamped all of the images from Christmas Cocktails and then used Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers to color them in!
I also added some details with a white gel pen. then I used the coordinating dies to die cut them out!

for the background, I did some ink blending with Picked Raspberry, Abandoned Coral and Dried Marigold Distress Inks. then I used the Plaid Stencil Set and some white embossing paste to add some texture! plus I love the look of plaid for holiday cards! I think it adds a warm and cozy vibe!


the sentiment was heat embossed in white onto black cardstock then fussy cut it out! I also popped it up with foam tape. then I splattered some black ink at the bottom of the card, too!

be sure to check out the card up on the Newton's Nook Designs blog too!
enjoy!
