D is for Drink (sneak peek!)

As promised, here is a *sneak peek* from the new A*Muse "Cinco de Mayo" 2007 release! The sentiment is new too! I stamped the margarita glass on green cardstock and also on a lighter piece of green. Then I cut out the lighter green upper portion and glued it onto the first image. (This technique is called paper piecing.) I made the "lime" at the top by reverse masking around one of the circles in a Lime Peel Mod dot notecard (just use a 1.25" circle punch with post-its to make a frame mask). Then I used the Gerber Daisy to stamp inside the circle and punched out the "lime" using a 1.5" circle punch.
Images and notecards by A Muse. Palette Hybrid ink, 1.25" and 1.5" circle punches, ribbon, dimensionals, dazzling diamonds glitter, sakura quickie glue pen.

Love it! That's my hubby's birthday, and he was born in 1955, so his birthdate is 5/5/55! Can't wait for the new releases! :)
