This is another of Sparkle N Sprinkle's newest sets called Chianti, but I made it into Chardonnay instead. I'm a white wine kind of person, even though I know red wine is better for you. If you want to see all the possibilities for this stamp set, you'll have to check out the fabulous cards the rest of the Design Team at Sparkle N Sprinkle has come up with (click here). I used my watercolor pencils since I'm still in the practicing stage with Copics (someday I will surprise you). The picture in the center is from a set of digital scrapbooking papers by Silvia Romeo called Scenic Papers - Italy. I love the subtle tones on this - reminds me of an old painting. I left the sentiment off this card so that I can add that later for the appropriate occasion. I think it could be used for almost any occasion. The glitter on the edges of the card is Sparkle N Sprinkle's Gold Dust, which looks almost brown on this card. It seems to add an elegance to the card. Complete directions can be found at Sparkle N Sprinkle here.
Thanks for looking!
