Catalog CASE - Whiskey Business

I've decided to try something new. New to me, anyway. I am going to case something from one of the catalogs at least once a month. I may do it more often, but we'll start with this. :)

So todays card comes from the 2020/2021 Annual Card Catalog (AC), page 33. I did a video that you can see HERE if you like.

How To:

Using Basic Gray, make your card base then set aside. Cut a piece of DSP (I used a retired sheet) and a piece of Whisper White (following the dimensions given below). Using the Whiskey Business stamp set, stamp the bottle image onto the white panel. I stamped towards the left and left some space underneath for "grounding." Stamp two glasses on a scrap of Whisper White. I used Basic Gray to do my stamping. Stamp your sentiment on scrap Whisper White as well. Color your images as you see fit. I used the following watercolor pencils: pacific blue, daffodil delight, pumpkin pie, and then basic gray for the "grounding" under the bottle. I also used a blender pen to lightly blend the colors together. You can use any medium you choose. Next, fussy cut out your glasses and set aside. Die cut your backing piece for the sentiment in Night of Navy, and use your Lovely Labels Pick A Punch to punch out the ends of your sentiment. Adhere the sentiment to the Night of Navy die cut. Adhere your DSP in a slanted fashion onto your card base. Adhere your stamped panel onto the DSP, lined straight with card base. (I also rounded adjacent corners of panel.) Adhere glasses to panel, one on each side of bottle. (See image.) One with adhesive and one with dimensionals. using some matching ribbon or thread, make some loops behind the sentiment, then adhere sentiment with dimensionals. Stamp an insert panel if you choose.
