This is for Niece #4 (of 6). She is turning 21 next week. Where has the time gone? I had selected a card from my stash for her birthday - a mermaid card, more for a child. My mom reminded me how old she will be, and I had to come up with a new idea. Now, I'm not sure how her mother will react to this card . . . :)
But turning 21 and being able to drink . . . well I thought this would be more appropriate.
I needed this card and fast -- it has to be mailed. So I found this sketch:
Sweet Sunday Sketch
And this color challenge: Just Us Girls color challenge. My niece is a red-head (ginger), so I thought these colors would be good for her card.
The stamp is from Totally Stampalicious (now out of business), but available as a digital image on bugaboo stamps. I colored the image with Copics; and added some crystal effects to the glasses (wine and eye). The pattern paper (including the numbers) is from My Mind's Eye.
PS -- I did color her eye before I mailed it, but didn't have time to do another photo.
Thanks so much for looking. I hope you are enjoying your day -- all this coloring of wine . . . now I'm off to . . . well you know.
What a fun card....love the image. Happy Birthday to your niece. Thanks for joining us at Just Us Girls!
