Beer Cheers

Hello there.  I am popping in today with more inspirations from Whimsy Stamps (WS) latest release.  I’m using the same new products that were introduced in my previous post in two other ways.  First up is a fun and easy pop-up card that I’ve been wanting to try for some time now.  I followed this tutorial.  Here it is in action.

I

I kept the front super simple so when opened it would be more of a surprise! 🤗   Stretched the It’s Snowing stencil to create the confetti by applying VersaMark ink with a sponge dauber then heat embossing with gold embossing powder.  Die cut Cheers from gold foil paper and adhered to a black belly band. 


The Frosty Mug pieces were die cut twice to create the reverse image for the back as well.  Instead of colouring the beer, I used one of the Champagne slimline papers.  The glass part of the mug was die cut from alcohol marker (AMF) friendly cardstock and coloured with light cool gray Copic Sketch markers.  The foam was die cut from a scrap of off-white cardstock and the edges inked with Antique Linen distress ink.


Masking was done directly on the sentiment stamp from Brewskis stamp set so the sentiment would all be on one line.  It was stamped with VersaMark ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder on black cardstock then trimmed to a strip.  Assembled the card.  Embellished with some circle clear drops to finish.


My second card was straight forward.  Stamped the image from Brewskis stamp set with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on AMF cardstock and coloured with Copic Sketch markers.  Masked the image then ink blended light gray dye ink over the Brick Pattern stencil.  


The Shaker Maker Rectangle frame was in my stash.  Die cut Cheers! from gold foil and black cardstock to offset for a drop shadow.  Assembled the card onto a white card base to finish.

This is a fantastic pop-up card, Trina! Seeing is believing, isn't it? Thanks for the video! Using campaign paper for the beer and arranging the sentiment in one line are clever. The circle clear drops are nice icy touches too.
Masking and coloring of the second card are wonderful. The light brick wall stenciling is a perfect backdrop for the images.

You are so clever, Trina! I LOVE this pop up card and that glass of beer is so realistic! Your coloring is perfection! The second card is just as realistic! Wow! Cheers, my friend!

Oh, what a fab card, the pop up beer looks amazing - so life-like. It's been so stinkin' hot here in Australia today that I could really go a beer! LOL. Thanks for sharing with us at Just Add Ink.
