I can't believe you drank that whole bottle of wine

I saw this quote on Facebook recently and thought it was adorable

 (and applied to some individuals I know -

 we won't mention names here)

It also works perfectly for the blog hop I joined this weekend over on

 Stamping With The Dragon. 

 (By the way - the CODE spelled:  STAMPING DRAGON).

   Here is the link if you want to play along.

The wine bottle and grapes image is also from them.  How cute!!!  

The idea for the grapes and/or wine actually came from MFP Speedy TV - Simple Salutations Challenge 32 - Theme of Wine/Grapes with a sentiment.

I JUST received my Spectrum Noir markers and this was the

 first time I've EVER used markers.  

I really like them, but need some practice -

 later I should probably head on over to their site and watch some videos. 

 I purchased these from Crafter's Companion and can't begin to tell you what

 great service 

(I received a $5.00 coupon for "following" their site) and

 SUPER fast shipping this company offers.  

Doing my Happy Crafter Dance!

 This shot almost looks a little distorted by I was trying to show the

 dimension on this card and the

 texture on the grapes which were spritzed with Goosebumps. 

 I printed out two images of the glass and bottle  (colored them both) 

and then cut one out and mounted it on top of the other with some foam tape.    

I used my  

Spellbinders Nestabilities 

Wavy Rectangles

 to emboss and cut all my main pieces.

Don't ya just love the purple and chartreuse - 

my color wheel tells me that they are

 Direct Complementary Harmonies

 (I learn something every day doing this :)

 Distressing with Memento LuLu Lavender ink and a little bling.

 Adding my homemade flowers

 (Cricut George and Basic Shapes Cartridge) and some ink.

I shape them with a toothpick.  

Message me if you want to learn how to do this. 

 A little time consuming, but worth the effort.

  Particularly when you live 100+ miles round trip to the closest crafts store like I do.

 The chartreuse ribbon is from a local Dollar Tree.

Wishing you a great day!

Blessings
