The Memory Box Challenge ends today so I'm sneaking in a last minute entry with a Kir Royale cocktail for the theme "I'll drink to that!". I've never tried a Kir Royale cocktail, but crème de cassis (blackcurrant liqueur) and champagne sounds like a delicious combination!
I used an MFT 'Cross-Stitch Tag' die and chopped off the top of the tag to make a rectangle. The cross stitching was done with crochet cotton. For the background I used a Memory Box 'Bubble Burst' die and the deep red mats are pearlised paper. A Woodware sentiment was stamped using a Stampin' Up 'Cherry Cobbler' inkpad.
I am joining in the following challenges:
The diecut looks like bubbles from the glass of champagne, sounds like a tasty cocktail
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever way to use that die Liz, would never have occurred to me.

Hi Liz,
ReplyDeleteoh this is such a brilliant card and a very beautiful design too.
Love the cross stitch cocktail glass and the lovely colours used.
Not heard of that cocktail but then I don't drink so that is maybe why.
I was brought up in a pub and after seeing people drunk and what not it turned me the other way.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
So awesome, love the bubbles and lovely cross stitch work.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for joining in with our challenge at Little Red Wagon, hope you will play again..

ReplyDeleteThis is a fabulous keepsake, Liz! I love your x-stitching and how you added the bubble die! I've never had that drink either, but it does sound delicious! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteThis is the second time recently I have seen this unusual and fun Bubble Burst die and it looks great with the stitched cocktail Liz, and I love the look with the red card behind it and making a matted background layer and a matching layer behind the stitched topper, also a very stylish Deco look to the sentiment...a super card! x
ReplyDeleteI've seen a few uses of this die and yours is just so inventive. It looks wonderful.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun card, I am so loving the bubble burst die and love the way you used it. So unique and clever! I also love your cross stitched wine glass-so card is stunning! Hugs, Brenda
