Is there a nurse in the room? Someone needs to check my temperature! I colored with Prismacolor pencils. LOL I feel so... retro. LOL I tried to get fancy and add some shading and color graduation, incorporating brown on the skin and grey on her dress to add to the deepness of the shading. I was just winging it so who knows if it is "correct" or not. The great thing about Prismacolor pencils is they are very forgiving.
I "salted" the rim of the glass with some pearlescent Stickles I had in my stash. I wanted chunky, but not glittery, and didn't want to deal with anything loose that I would be wearing for the next 3 days. You know it happens. LOL
I stamped this cute sentiment on the Wine Glass Charm Die-namics from the new Let's Toast Die-namics and tied a sweet bow using Honeydew twine.
Good thing MFT has the Monarch style border in three sizes! This one called for the Mini Monarch Border. :)
Salted, on the rocks please.
I finished off the inside with matching papers and the XOXO stamp.
