TGIF, everyone! It's Friends with Flair Friday, and I have a fun card to share with you.
My sister is celebrating a big birthday in a few days. She's a fan of wine and I wanted to make a wine-related card for her. Unity Stamp Co. had the PERFECT stamps to convey what I wanted to say. First, I started with the wine bottles from the Let's Get SIP FACED stamp set. I liked the "aged to perfection" sentiment that comes with it, but I hoped to find something a little more specific to a big birthday. I think the perfect sentiment came with the Marlow Fashionista {itty bitty}, with the Italian Proverb "Age and glasses of wine should never be counted."
I had a very hard time finding just the right colors to go with the way I colored the wine. Luckily, I still have a few sheets of the retired Stampin' Up! color Bravo Burgundy. I held up the piece of burgundy cardstock to tons of papers in my stash, and the closest match came with the Eva line from BasicGrey. I chose the "Courtier" pattern from a mini-pack. The pennant die is from Sizzix and I colored with Copic markers.
Happy Stamping... and Happy Fortieth to my sister! :)
