Hello everyone,
I hope you are well and keeping warm!
I have not been around much in blogland because (drum role) I have had my first commission ~ yay!
Remember this card, well the recipient contacted me and asked if I could make it into Christmas cards for him and I said yes ~ well what else was I going to say! They finally went in the post today all the way to Spain ~ yes I've gone international! Will post some photos later.
Today I have a quick share ~ this is a card I made for a friend, who like me enjoys the odd glass of red.
I saw these stamps in a magazine feature earlier in the year and bought the whole set, ideal when you want a slightly quirky and humerous card ~ not everyone likes cute.
When I had finished colouring the image, I decided I didn't like the colour of her dress (blue), so I had a lightbulb moment ~ don't get many of those ~ and decided to paper piece it. I think it works okay?
It doesn't show up on the photo, but I used Glossy Accents on the wine glass to make it sparkle.
