Cocktail Glasses Sneak Peek

Hi Bloggers.

I have shows on Hochanda tomorrow at 8am, 12noon and 3pm with Sue Wilson's Cocktail dies from the Necessities Collection and Background Collection.

As promised, I have a sneak peek for you today -

This is a really simple card but it's one of my favourites. When cutting the Celebrate sentiment from the 3D Cosmopolitan Cocktail Glass Die Set, I discovered that you could still read the negative - it's the same with the Party sentiment in the same die set - very clever of Sue to do that! So, these dies make perfect masks - I've done that in some of my samples. On this card, I could have cut the sentiment out of Double Sided Adhesive Sheet on card 3 times and added Polished Silk Glitter to each one. But, to be honest, the letters are very delicate and this way is much easier and you get the cut away sentiment to use onother projects.

I started with a piece of Coconut White Card that was left over from cutting out a frame using the Double Stitched Rectangles Die Set. I cut the Celebrate sentiment from the 3D Cosmopolitan Cocktail Glass Die Set out of the card 3 times as shown. I cut 3 strips of Woodware Double Sided Adhesive Sheet. I added one to the back of the top sentiment and added Sahara Gold CS Polished Silk Glitter to exposed adhesive on the front. I repeated the process with the central and bottom sentiments with Rose Copper and Silver Chrome Polished Silk Glitter respectively.

I matted onto Black Card cut using the next sized die in the Double Stitched Rectangles Die Set and then onto another piece of Coconut White Card.

I added a piece of Woodware Double Sided Adhesive Sheet to a piece of Coconut White Card. I cut a glass, a straw and an umbella from it using the Cocktail Glasses Die Set. I peeled away the other backing sheet and added Sahara Gold Polished Silk Glitter to the glass, Rose Copper Polished Silk Glitter to the straw and Silver Chrome Polished Silk Glitter to the umbrella.

Simple!

I've added photos of the samples from the shows to the Gallery Section of this blog and to my Julia Watts Crafts Facebook Page.
