Happy Hour Backgound with Misters on Acetate

Hi Bloggers.

Hope you enjoyed the shows yesterday. I thought it would be appropriate to continue with the cocktail glass show samples today as it's New Year's Eve -

A cool background on this one. I started by adding some CS Glue to some Acetate. I misted it with a little water and moved the glue around using my finger. I then misted with Aqua Lagoon, Scarlet Mist and Golden Mint Misters. I scrunched up a piece of White Tissue Paper, opened it out and added it to my background, tapping it down with a piece of Kitchen Roll. I put aside to dry - this takes quite a while depending on how wet it is. Once dry, it is possible to fill in any gaps by misting the tissue paper again with misters but I didn't in this case.

I cut the Happy Hour Background into a piece of Coconut White Card. I added some of my background to the back.

I made a frame out of Coconut White Card and added it to my Happy Hour Background using CE Mounting Cushion. I matted onto a piece of Coconut White Card, Black Card and then another piece of Coconut White Card.

I cut a Cocktail Glass out of Coconut White Card. I misted the stem with CS Riviera Blue Ink Spray Mist. I cut the Cocktail Glass out of some of my Acetate Background. I trimmed away the stem and added it to my part misted Coconut White Die Cut. I cut the straw from the 3D Cosmopolitan Glass Die Set out of Coconut White Card and the rind die out of Coconut White Card misted with Golden Mint CS Mister.

I cut the celebrate sentiment from the 3D Cosmopolitan Cocktail Die Set out of Black Card. I cut a banner out of Coconut White Card using the Stitched Flags Die Set.

Hope you enjoy your New Year's Eve.

Thanks for stopping by.
