DT 170 - Birthday Drink and Flamingo

 Welcome to Double Trouble Challenge 170!

Embossing/stencilling and lush leaves are the theme for this challenge. The small graphic is below - please visit the Double Trouble Challenge Blog for detailed information. 

I embossed a piece of green cardstock with a leaf embossing folder and then inked the edges to enhance the design. The drink glass with the scene inside was all die cut and assembled. The corner image with the flamingo was also die cut from various colours of cardstock and I added a hot foiled sentiment at the bottom. A few clear gems were added around the glass. 

Come and join us at Double Trouble and show us how you interpret this challenge. 

I am also linking up my card with the challenge at Park Hopping - My Happy Place. My card was inspired by a water park with poolside drinks. 

You have two weeks to link up your project. 

We can't wait to see what you create!

Enjoy, 

Alyson

So cooling, a drink by the poolside. The embossed background is perfect for your experience at a water park.
