Cheers to 21! - Monday Montage / Create with Kaitlyn

Hey everyone! Welcome to another Monday Montage Blog Hop! Have I ever mentioned how much I love all these girls??? They are all seriously awesome, and I'm so grateful to have gotten to know them over the past year. I know that you're here for the projects, so let's get right to it!

A couple of weeks ago, my best friend turned 21 and she was just a tad bit excited about it! So I bought her a bottle of wine and made this cute little tag and card to dress it up a bit. I loved how it all turned out, but more importantly she loved receiving it!

I knew that the perfect stamp set to use was the Happy Hour stamp set. However, I have never been really inspired by this set so I CASEd (copy and share everything) this card right from page 135 of the Annual Catalog. All I did was change up the colors. Since the wine bottle label was Rose Red (this is a beautiful color that really needs to get used more) and gold I went with those and added a touch of Bermuda Bay. I really love this color scheme, and I think I'll have to use it more in the future!

I think my favorite part about the card is the Gold Glitter "Cheers!". It is super easy to achieve this! Just stamp you image in Versa Mark and cover it with some Heat & Stick Powder. Then heat the powder and pour on the glitter, tap off any excess glitter, and ta-da! I like to go back over it with some heat to make sure the glitter is attached really good.

For the wine bottle tag, I just folded a piece of Rose Red Card Stock and punched a 1-3/4" Circle in the smaller end. The 21 was done in the same manner as the "Cheers!" using the Larger Than Life Alphabet & Numbers set. I am so happy there are colored baker's twine! The Bermuda Bay Baker's Twine is the perfect finishing touch for both the tag and card.

Adorable and classy at the same time! And you've inspired me to pull out Rose Red -- I totally forget about that color.
