Mixed Drinks & Bubble Over

Whilst they were still out... this happened... lighter & brighter than the original... and for any occasion...
Details as per this card here... just a switch from Tranquil Tide to Real Red...

Leffe anyone?

So whilst I was re-making this card... as the Lager card... another thought popped into the head...

As I am rather partial to a Leffe Brune... so this card is designed for me!!

Remember that Mixed Drinks (for the glasses) is on Last Chance.... only a few more days to be able to purchase...
And a personal photo share too... to show the regular Leffe glass shape that was in my head... as this was a shot of my favourite beer (though the more readily available golden variety in this shot) whilst atop some mountain in the French Alps a few years ago... happy memories!
And I skied much better after that break!

Mixed Drinks Bubble Over... The Lager card...

So I was asked for a Lager Beer based card for a late teen... so a quick re-make of this card here... brightened it all up for a younger audience... and made a happy requester...
Bear in mind Mixed Drinks (for the glasses) is very sadly retiring... so is only available while stocks last - or till 31st May latest...
Mixed Drinks Photopolymer Stamp Set
Also bear in mind that Bubble Over does carryover to the new 2018-19 Annual Catalogue... but not with the bundled 10% discount for the stamps and dies that you can get now... but only till 31st May...
Bubble Over Photopolymer Bundle
And an interesting twist for the lager colour... I tried quite a few of the colours and they were all too yellow - or too brown... but Crushed Curry with Sahara Sand overstamped did the trick!

Bubble Over meets Mixed Drinks again...

A lot of this may seem familiar to some of you... as basically everyone visiting wanted to do this card which has been sitting on my display for the last 3 months... so my original card "grew" as I finalised the projects for my Men in May classes

Click here for all the details on the stamped inner panel...
And the extra... just a Thick Whisper White 14.8cm square card blank (US Letter nearest equivalent 5 1/2" square) to sit the panel on...

Now that's better!!!

Bubble Over... in glorious technicolour...

Sharing a card we made at our last Quarterly training... that I particularly love! 

A card that I had pinned to try later when I first saw it... so it was great to have the opportunity to make it with someone just telling me how!!
A bit of heat embossing and sponging magic with the Bubble Over bundle to turn a simple white card and die-cuts into something bright and cool... 

Though I do have to laugh at my Bermuda Bay straw going over the edge of the card so far... and I can even remember taking the time & effort to not let that happen!!! Must have started chatting instead...
Thanks to Sarah Klass for the stunning original design... and Julie for choosing the card for a Training make! More details for you on the card here at Julie's blog...

When Bubble Over meets Mixed Drinks...

With a bit of Waterfront thrown in for good measure...

A match made in heaven... particularly for those of you with a man who has a taste for Guinness or any other stout beer...
Clean & Simple Early Espresso small square card (10.5cm from A4 card or US 4 1/4" from US Letter)... with a 9.9cm stamping mat (4" US)

Bubble Over bottle stamped in Early Espresso and die cut using the Bottles & Bubbles dies... with Tranquil Tide bottle neck label... Basic Grey bottle label... and finished off with a Silver Foil die cut bottle cap
Mixed Drinks tankard stamped using Memento or Archival Black... Aquapainter watercoloured using Early Espresso & Soft Sky... with a faint touch of Sahara Sand on the froth... and all finished off with Clear Wink of Stella... and then fussy cut...

And all "seated" on a Sahara Sand stamping of the thin line in the Waterfront stamp set... life saver stamp! Stopped everything from floating randomly!
