Challenged to create a card with a cup on it I opted for this mason jar stamp as the closest thing in my stamp collection to a cup. Stamped on white base and also on vellum. When ink dried, flipped vellum over and used SU blushing bride marker to create the pink lemonade in the jar. Cut slits in the white base to allow the striped "straw" to be inserted. Covered said straw with the vellum layer to create the impression of being immersed in the drink. Put bow on the jar rings to hide fact that the straw wasn't showing through at that point. Had cut slits in the white base to allow insertion of paper for straw. Added Glossy Accents to provide illusion of moisture beading on outside of cold drink. Used jars embossing folder for pink layer added enamel dots to corners for fun. Sentiment from SU Express Yourself set.

Oh Pansy - this is one of the very sweetest cards! I love the creativity of the condensation on the jar and the beautiful little straw is So whimsical!!
