Splish, Splash, Sparkle


One of stamping's most endearing aspects is its ability to easily re-purpose our projects.  I got caught in a real time crunch in June and many of my Summer cards are being rescued from my stash and given a face lift.  The text gets swapped out, images get rearranged,  and maybe even a whole new card base is in the works . . .


The original card was part of a stamp club challenge and while I kept the basics, the stenciled card base and frame are new.  The "ice cubes" are Page Pebbles - very popular embellishments a few years ago.  After stamping and glittering the cardstock, I cut it out in the shape of a tumbler, embellished it with a fabric flower and a jewel, and added two white cardstock strips to serve as straws.

Hopefully, your Summer will be full of many frosty and delicious moments!
