I clear embossed the images on white CS , masked them, sponged all over with Aged Mahogany ink, then colored the beverages inside the pitcher and glasses. Then I stamped the sentiment in black.
I layered the images over a piece of white CS that I had punched two edges on using a scallop punch. I thought it made it look like the edge of a napkin!
In keeping with the inspiration napkin - I didn't add any other embellishments.

This is awesome. I love the deep color of the background and the hand-drawn look of the ice tea glasses and pitches. Love the scallops that do remind you of a napkin edge. Now I'm thirsty!!
