Colours used to make this card are:
To recreate the water colour cocktails card, you will need:
Strawberry Slush card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Basic Black card – 4⅜” by 2⅞”
Basic White card – 4¾” by 3¼”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside
Scrap Fluid 100, Old Olive card & Basic Black
I used the cocktail umbrella image to stamp in the upper left and lower left corners of the Strawberry Slush card base using Strawberry Slush ink.

From scrap Fluid 100 card I die cut the large and small glasses using the Cheers & Sips dies. I added colour to the die cut pieces using a Water Painter and Strawberry Slush or Lemon Lime Twist ink and set them aside to dry.

Using the Textured Notes dies I die cut a rectangle from the 4¾” by 3¼” piece of Basic White card. I stamped the watery image from the Sunrise Sailing stamp set along the bottom of the die cut rectangle and then added Balmy Blue ink to the top of the panel with a Blending Brush. This piece was then adhered to the Basic Black layer and then to the card front.

I stamped the leaves in either Granny Apple Green or Garden Green ink where the top of the glasses were to be placed. The glasses were then added to the panel with Mini Glue Dots.
