Lisa's inspiration for this weeks Ways to Use it challenge is National Wine Day, my kind of holiday. I thought this stamp was perfect for the challenge. Since it's been awhile since I got a chance to play, I've got a few challenges to combine! This is my sample for Lisa, and it fits Sabrina's TLC Smack Down Technique challenge and her WT Hardware and Metal Accents for last week. I stamped, colored with alcohol markers then die cut the image and three frames in graduating sizes. I used the Smack Down technique with grape and leaf stamps to create the bg. Adhered the ribbon with filigree brads added the sentiment panel and the framed image panel. Hope you'll come play along! TFL

I love your smacked down background, and that image you used for your focal point is very unique. Love that sentiment and now that song is going through my head.

You did some great challenge combining here, Carla! Super easy to make the background. I love your main image, reminds me so much of that scene near the end of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.
