Cheers


When I read that our new theme  at Fashionable Stamping Challenges was called 'In the Holiday Spirit', I had to get my thinking hat on. We were given some guidelines--A chilled and relaxed feel for the Holiday season. Remember some parts of the world have summer at this time of year.
So in the Holiday Spirit', this card is to send to friends, knowing that over the festive season, we will be raising a glass or two, remembering the times when they lived closer to us.
So 'cheers' everyone wherever you are.
This card  has  a random stamped layer . The stamped images are all  from Creative Expressions.
Mind you I don't think I will be fussy cutting bunches of grapes again  for a while.
The wine label was water coloured and all the other shading is Vintage Photo and Dusty Concorde distress ink.
Please pop over to FSC for all the details and see what we all made.

Thank you for stopping by to take a look, I realy appreciate your comments.

  1. Good on you for fussy cutting all those grapes! I remember when Christmas meant warm sunny weather, my last one was way way back in 1978!!! Cheers indeed with health & happiness to all, far & near :-D
