I've used Happy Hour and Fluid stamp sets, and Frosty stencil for the background. I started off with the Fluid stamp, and inked it up with Distress Inks a couple of times.
Then I stamped the glass, orange slice and cherry with Versafine Onyx Black, then flooded them with colour using Distress Re-inkers. The re-inkers give a much richer colour than you can achieve with the ink pads.
There is a die set to accompany these stamps, but I didn't want the white outline today, so I fussy cut the stamped images. You can see a little smudge line at the top of the drink, which was totally accidental, but worked out perfectly for the design.
I sponged some Salty Ocean around the top edges of the panel, and Tea Dye around the lower edges to indicate sky and sand.
Moving on to the base card, I slipped a sheet of copy paper between the folds of the card then sponged around the top third with orange and yellow distress inks.
Then I stencilled over with Salty Ocean Distress Oxide, and added a touch of Stickles in the unstencilled areas.
Here's a close-up of the cocktail - cheers! That little smudge lines up perfectly with the Fluid image.
And here's a look at the finished card with the Visible Image products used.
You can find these and the rest of Visible Image's range of fabulous goodies here.
