For my first card, I started by stamping the images from MFT Martini Time Stamp Set. I used Limeade, Lemon Drop, Safety Orange, Bubblegum and Grout Gray dye inks for martini glasses, Red Hot, Pink Lemonade, Limelight and Cactus dye inks for small images.


For the shaker, I stamped it with Summer Splash dye ink. Then, I sponged Blue Raspberry and Tropical Teal dye inks to clear stamp using mini blending tool and stamped it again to give it a gradation effect.


I then die cut all images from Inkadinkado Stamping Mask Paper using MFT Die-namics Martini Time.


After masking the images, I stamped MFT BG Itsy Bitsy Polka Dots Background onto the panel as shown in the picture. I used Grout Gray and Cement Gray dye inks.


Next, I die cut the shaker using coordinating die and fussy cut again with scissors. I then applied glitter pen to it and adhered a mini wobble spring behind it.


I pulled out another A2 sized card base and stamped shaker images. I gave them a gradation effect again using Grout Gray, Cement Gray and Steel Blue dye inks. I stamped sentiments from same stamp set using Blue Raspberry and Tropical Teal dye inks as well.

I mounted two card bases each other with a glue tape and adhered some stickers as shown and finished off this card. Now it's time to shake it off!




Here you are. Today's special martini I prepared for you is....


...Espresso martini! Cheers! :)

For this card, I began by watercoloring the galaxy background using Gansai Tambi watercolor paints. I splattered white inks here and there and mounted it on an A2 sized white card base after it dried.


I die cut martini glass using MFT Die-namics Martini Time and colored it with alcohol markers.


Next, I die cut a piece of white card stock using MFT Die-namcis Stitched Scallop Basic Edges. I then stenciled circles from MFT Stencil Basic Shapes-Circles using dye inks and mini blending tool. I also die cut sentiment from metallic gold card stock using MFT Die-namics Cheers.

To finish, I foam mounted the scallop panel using craft foam and double sided tape and glued all elements as shown.
