THis is for 2 challenges. I wanted to honour our queen this week Gail, with such a neat gallery...I finally chose this card to case...Sweet Life by mamaxsix at Splitcoaststampers
I changed it from a icecream shop to a tiki bar. It also matched this weeks twisted sister challenge of using browns and one other color. plus 2 die-cuts or punches and ribbon or twine.
I thought it would be so fun....I used the browns for the straw roof which was hemp..cut up and glued on top, and added the pink in the drinks with a touch of blue( hope thats ok...:0)..)..had to have a fancy umbrella in her drink...lol. used the scalloped border punch for the ledge and roof topper. Made a lei for the bar decor and fake snow for the foam on the beers...lol. Just used coffee cupa and cut them out and raised them up, plus the martini i just drew and cut out...after coloring them...:0)
Was a fun card to do..thanks Gail for the fun idea dn tour...and the neat color combos for the twisted sisters...join us..:0)...Thanks for visiting....now time to party...:0)

This is adorable!! Wendy what a cute card. I have made some of the awning cards but never thought of a Tiki Bar. This is a great idea and an awesome card! Thanks for playing today.
