My Cardmaking Haven

Martini Glass

Hello again,here is today's card a Martini glass.I was asked to make 5 cards with Martini glasses and thought.......what am I going to do.There are not many Martini glass stamps around, Stampin'Up! has one available on the 1st April,but it is a bit small for what I wanted.I had seen a Martini glass made,like the cocktail one I did a few posts ago......but couldn't remember where I had seen it so I went ahead and made my own.It is quite simple,it is based on the one over at Splitcoaststampers,you just use triangles to get the Martini glass shape.I have kept the layout much the same as the cocktail card,as the glasses fill most of the card there is not alot of room left after you add the sentiment(and it does make it easier to do 5 cards).I was also given a different colour combo for each of the cards,so that made choosing the colours easy.For the olive I used the small Stampin'Up! oval punch,inked the edges and put a small cross at the top with a black pen........I then attached it to a party cocktail pick.Thanks for stopping by.
