Today we were to use twine on our cards. Just the other day I was at Bed Bath and Beyond bought me some kitchen twine plus other stuff. hehe You can always use kitchen twine don't you think? Even works on cards.....now mine....
While browsing magazines and such I came across these grapes. I thought these would look good on a card and man I think I was right! I had the perfect stamp set to blend it altogether. I have had it for awhile, so glad I finally got to use it.
Stamped, clear eb and colored with re-inkers the images except for the magazine grapes. Wish I could color like that.
On a scrap of cs I put lot's of double sided tape then put the twine on swiping an ink pad over top for color. Also made the twine pom pom.
But this all on a black AC card. Done........Well, I am going to go have me some wine while I fix dinner! hehe.....TFL :0)

Very striking. I like your pom pom. We had similar ideas today with the twine challenge. Hugs.

Love your card, Cathy. The magazine grapes look really awesome next to the cute image - almost as if they were made for each other. What an awesome way to ink up your twine. I actually, at first glance, thought it was multicolored twine.
