A friend who owns a restaurant in Florida recently received his liquor license. (A very good thing in this economy to help increase revenue!) So to make him a congratulatory card, I started by raiding my bin of images to recycle. Lo and behold, I had this macro photography of ice cubes dropping into a beverage. How perfect!
The image is layered over ivory cardstock which had been sprayed with Walnut Ink, then sealed with sealant. The lowercase letter brads spell out *drinks be in the house*.
Sorry that I couldn't get a better snapshot. The lighting just wasn't cooperating today!
Thanks for looking and have a wonderful day!

Glad you told us what the photo was, or I think I would still be trying to work it out. Looks like a perfect card for the occasion. Love the effect of those little letter brads.

Thank you, Anne for being such a terrific woman!
