Hi, everyone! Today I would like to share a birthday card which I made for my hubby, using this week's Sketch Challenge #830 (flipped on its side). His card request this year was for me to make a 'Bahama Mama' card (his fave tropical drink when we go on vacation!) I had been searching for a fun stamp set to buy and found this 'Cocktail Mixer' set by Newton's Nook. The image was stamped with Stazon Jet Black; everything except for the liquid was colored with markers, then sealed with a clear glaze pen; after the glaze was dry, I used sponges and inks to color in the cocktail. The background panel was sponged with the same colors: Marigold Morning, Tangerine Tango, and Real Red. The palm tree dies are from Top Dog Dies, who went out of business several years ago. The water and clouds were also colored with sponges. The small strip of designer paper is from the 'Weathered Wood' Paper Collection by Divinity Designs LLC. Here are the additional items from Divinity Designs LLC: Pierced Rectangles Dies, Matting Rectangle Die, Pierced Circles Dies, Circles Dies, A2 Portrait Card Base with Layer Dies. Thanks so much for looking! Have a very blessed day!

What a fun take on the sketch, Angie! Those warm tropical colors are so beautiful and very inviting as it is beginning to get very cold here! What a perfect card for hubby!
