Mojito Anyone?

Here's a scrapbook page I made with my niece & nephew playing bartendar. I have to say this is one page that went through quite a few revisions. I started with one version and ended up with a completely new version.

Here are the ingredients:

Stamp Sets: Tart & Tangy
Paper: Polar Bear Press Designer Paper (non-SU), Riding Hood Red (retired), Whisper White, Good Morning Sunshine (retired) and Jersey Shore (retired)
Ink: Real Red, Wild Wasabi (retired)
Accessories: Tim Holtz Grungeboard, Riding Hood Red Buttons
Tools: Big Shot, Go-Go Boots Sizzlets, Swirly Sizzlet, Eyelet Border Punch

Here are the special touches on the page:
Covering the Grungeboard with with Real Red Craft Ink and using strips of Ridding Hood Red as accents to the page. Cutting the line in half and adding it to the page with dimensionals.

KWernerDesign Color Inspiration #55

I decided to do the color inspiration on kwernerdesign.com this week. The colors are Really Rust, More Mustard, Basic Gray and Very Vanilla. I have to say I love the way this came out. I wasn't sure what I was going to do with the Basic Gray and I love the the touch that color did for the page. So I started with the background paper from the Juntos designer series line. The title I mixed it up with Tim Holtz Grungeboard and On Board chipboard for the &. I sponged on some Very Vanilla craft ink first as a base to soften the color then I followed with some Basic Gray. The journaling was done inside a Top Note Sizzex die cut. I tied some Basic Gray taffeta ribbon. Next came the leaves from the retired With Gratitude stamp set. I colored them in with my Stampin' Write Markers and then colored them in. The finishing touches were the pewter jumbo eyelets, vintage brads.
