Seeking Ideas for Watercolored Drinks
A few months ago my very nice stamper friend Colleen came by for a few hours of watercoloring fun and brought along this stamp. It so isn't my normal style but I fell in love with it. Despite the fact that I like this little watercolored bit of paper, it quickly became buried under my pile. I was delighted to discover it while moving my stamping gear down the hall. I'm not sure what to do with it. I see a Happy New Year's card but I can't quite figure out how to use this very bold image. It's about a 3" square (I'd measure it but my rulers are still part of the "move.") Any ideas???? I'll post the final product once I can safely walk into my new stamping space!
Definitely a New Years card or maybe some coasters.
ReplyDeleteJoan, I cut the image out, glueing it onto a card which still leaves room at the bottom for a sentiment. Usually, I use Happy Birthday, but a new years' sentiment or any kind of celebration would certainly work.

It looks like something you could frame and hang in a kitchen
ReplyDeleteJoan this is B-E-A-U-tiful! Why not frame it and put it in your stamp room? You'll probably grin with pleasure every time you see it!
ReplyDeleteIt looks great, Joan. I think I will dig out that stamp and play with it some more. I really like the idea of making coasters with it. Let me know if you want to borrow the stamp!
ReplyDeleteI have this stamp and love it. Its great to stamp on a ceramic tile (I prefer unglazed) with Stazon and then paint or color. Seal with a good sealant, add felt to the bottom and you have a great coaster. I have made sets of these for gifts and people just love them.
ReplyDeleteIts also fun to use the A Muse stamp "one martini, two martini, three martini, floor!" (or something to that effect!)

ReplyDeleteI "see" this as your focal image - dead center - with Celebrate, Cheers, or other sentiment at the bottom - with curly ribbons from the top side...
I also agree with everyone that this is a stand along image (I love it!) for coasters.

Oh, WOW!!! Love the image, and love the watercoloring!!! I'm in love, too!!! I loved someone's suggestions for making coasters with it, or frameable art--gee, it really has a lot of possibilities!
