Cheers!

It's Topflight Stamps Tuesday with an "Anything Goes" theme so I created a card celebrating a favorite pasttime with the Village Pub Clear Stamp Set from the Architectural Collection by Jamie Rodgers for Creative Expressions. I also used the Spring Sprouts Die Set 49 by AALL and Create and the Grunge Midtones 6x6 Patterned Paper Pad by Craft Consortium.

Here it is!

Instructions:
  1. Create an A6 card from white heavy cardstock. Set aside.
  2. Use Tuxedo Black Memento Ink to stamp the pub scene from the Village Pub Clear Stamp Set twice — once onto white Copic friendly cardstock and once onto repositionable sticker paper. 
  3. Use Copic markers to color the pub, trees, and foliage. 
  4. Fussy-cut the sticker paper version and place it over its counterpart on the image panel as a mask. 
  5. Position the largest die from the Spring Sprouts Die Set 49 facedown on the image panel and secure with low-tack tape. Run sandwich through a die-cut machine. 
  6. Trim the bottom off of the die-cut.
  7. Brush or sponge Della Blue Elements Ink over the masked image to create a blue sky. 
  8. Use an Isopropyl alcohol filled Fine Spray Mister  to mist the image panel die-cut. This step evens out the blended ink and adds a slight mottling to the ink.
  9. Remove the mask from the image panel die-cut. 
  10. Finish coloring the patio with toner grey Copic markers. 
  11. Cut a piece of patterned paper from the Grunge Midtones 6x6 Patterned Paper Pad to 6" x 4.25" and edge with a black marker.
  12. Use magnets and/or low-tack tape to secure the patterned paper background to the base of a stamping platform.
  13. Position the wine glass stamp from the Village Pub Clear Stamp Set facedown on the image panel die-cut so that it's slightly tilted on the bottom right corner. 
  14. Press the platform's lid onto the back of the stamp and lift.
  15. Ink the wine glass stamp with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and stamp.
  16. Thoroughly clean and dry the wine glass stamp.
  17. Position the wine glass stamp so that it's facedown and slightly tilted towards the already stamped wine glass.
  18. Press the platform's lid onto the back of the stamp and lift.
  19. Ink the wine glass stamp with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and stamp. 
  20. Remove the wine glass stamp.
  21. Position the"Cheers!" sentiment stamp from the Village Pub Clear Stamp Set on the upper left corner as shown.
  22. Press the platform's lid onto the back of the stamp and lift.
  23. Ink the sentiment stamp with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and stamp. 
  24. Use Copic markers to cut color the wine in the glasses. 
  25. Use a white colored pencil to add highlights to the wine glasses.
  26. Adhere the stamped background panel to the reserved white card.
  27. Use glue to add irridescent white sequins above the wine glasses to finish the card.
