Merry Cocktail Card by Samantha Mann

Merry Little Cocktails!

Celebrate the season with a merry little cocktail! Today Samantha has created an adorable holiday card featuring our Christmas Cocktails Stamp Set and Plaid Stencil Set. 

Samantha stamped all the cocktails from our Christmas Cocktails Stamp Set. Isn't it cute how they all have Christmas elements on the garnishes and stir sticks? She colored the glasses using alcohol markers in a soft rainbow of colors. 

For her card she masked off the bottom of the card and inked the top using pink and peach distress inks. Then she added the plaid pattern over the top using our Plaid Stencil Set. This stencil set has two pieces that you can overlap and ink with two colors for a two color plaid but on this card she used white paste on both of the layers and that has a beautiful effect too! 

She removed her masking tape and added the cocktail glasses along the bottom edge of the inked area using dimensional adhesives to pop them up. The finishing touch is the sentiment "have yourself a merry little cocktail." She embossed the message onto black cardstock with white embossign powder and fussy cut it out by hand before adding it to her card. 

We love the festive cheer this holiday card has! It would be perfect for an invite to a holiday happy hour too!
