Six glasses were stamped in Basic Gray ink onto scrap Basic White card. To create the fruit juice effect, I stamped the inner image in Tahitian Tide ink for blue raspberry, Parakeet Party for limeade, Daffodil Delight for lemonade, Sweet Sorbet for strawberry and Blackberry Bliss for blackcurrant.

Using clear packing tape, I covered all the stamped images before die cutting them out using the Brewed Dies. This made the glasses shiny……. so cute.

Using the Deckled Rectangle Dies, I die cut rectangles from the smallest Basic White panel and the Basic Gray panel. I added ‘ground’ using a Smoky Slate Blends Pen. The ‘bubble’ image was stamped along the top in Basic Gray ink. The two rectangles were then glued together.
