So the Flourishes Newsletter is hosting a challenge - - For the entire set of Flourishes stamps. I don't own many of them, but I want to own more!!!! This is for a chance to win the whole February release. YAY!!! The challenge is Whats Your Cup of Tea Challenge. You are to be inspired by your favorite beverages container.
I had to pick one drink that I drink almost every day - Diet Dr. Pepper. The image is from the Year of Flowers Calendar set. I colored the roses with copics R22, 24, 27, 29 and used a little of the copic blender to lighten certain areas.The leaves are G21, 24, 28. This is mounted on a black and maroon ovals.
The "Love you" is from Flourishes as well. I stamped it first in Versafine Red and then over-stamped it slightly offset with Versafine Black. I then clear embossed it. It is set in a maroon slightly off-centered oval. I added two strips of black ribbon (the actual drink itself), and I had to add a yellow cap, because all the ones that come out of my vending machine at work are topped with the yellow cap. (picture of it on my blog LOL).
