Hello. It's me again! Finally posting another card. The posting process is just so time consuming for me, and while I've made a ton of cards, taking a pic AND getting it posted usually doesn't happen because I'm desperately trying to get it finished in the nick of time to give it to the person! So forgive me.
This card is for the Color and Sketch challenge this week. (I know, amazing to be doing the challenge and posting in the same week!) I'm working really hard on improving my use of Copics so here is a 'practice piece'. I used Crystal Effects to make the glass well, glassy. I lightly traced around where the nestability would cut and hand trimmed around the flour and the lime a little past where the cut would fall. Then I slipped the cut pieces over the nestie before running it through my CB so they wouldn't get cut off. I used a simple sponge to sponge around the nestie after embossing. I didn't have any more Wassabi so Old Olive will have to do.
Hope you like it.

What a totally fabulous card!!! That little guy in that glass with the ice is adorable!! You did awesome!! And, I think taking the picture of the card and loading it up, is not so fun - not my favorite part of the whole process for sure.
