MMSC46, Cocktail anyone?

Celebrate with a long cool one, whatever that would be!!  For my main focal point it is not at stamped or a digital image BUT a cocktail.  How about a big wish of "Celebrate"?  This is so festive, great for any good news or a birthday celebration.  This is also my first Easel card, not hard at all.  What got me to do one?  I have been meaning to, really but since this is very top heavy and was doing the splits for me when I tried to stand it up, well the solution was to make it into an Easel card, and now there is NO problem with that.  I just did a very small modification. 

 
So since I am sure you have noticed by now how thick this card is with the bead on the stir stick and all the other goodies (but so worth it) I needed to create a thick style envelope, this card is 5 x 7 and so I used the template from Priscillastyles for this size.  She also offers several other envelope sizes and styles so stop on by for the endless possibilities.  Priscillastyles is also our monthly sponsor at Midnight Madness and our Midnight Madness Mistress.   Our weekly Sponsor is also with Midnight Madness as a Design Team member Jeni.  Jeni is the owner of D'Amour Allure home of stylish and unique stamps.  Her sponsorship this week is some stamps, wood paper and Prima flowers.


Thanks for visiting today, always glad to have you.

  13. G-G-Gorgeous! Jane, I cannot keep up with you girl! Every thing you touch is golden these days... Where did you find this cool cocktail glass? I just love your easel card. Believe me, I've tried to make one and ruined three sheets of card stock because I kept mis-measuring! Oh well, better luck next time. :) Michelle
