TRIPLE THE FUN

 Today's card is all about the Celebratory Sips Designer Series Paper (DSP).  

The pitchers of drinks, bottle of wine and the drink in the glass were all snipped from one of the Celebratory Sips DSP designs.  I have really been learning to appreciate DSP that includes designs that I can cut out, either with coordinating dies, or fussy cut, and then use them as a focal point.

Do you see the pattern on the Basic White behind the DSP images?  This was created with one of the dies in Cheers & Sips!  It is about the size of the large glass in the stamp set and I believe it is meant to "dress up" a glass, but I thought it also made a pretty background. 

When I make cards for my Fairless Stampin' Flair website, I don't necessarily sit and make all three for a week at the same time.  The three cards this week were made over the course of a few weeks, and I didn't realize until I sat down to create the posts that both Monday's card and today's card both give you a sneak peek of the new Timid Tiger In-Color.  I'm thinking I must subconsciously really like this color because I've noticed that I'm using it the most out of the 5 new colors.

I never thought I was a big fan of any color orange, but this particular Timid Tiger orange is very pretty.  It is a soft orange but yet has enough depth-of-color to give a nice contrast with other colors.

The background paper on the card front definitely is one of my favorites from the Celebratory Sips DSP collection.  The 3 decorative panels on the front of the card sort of disguise the paper, but if you look at the peek of the decorated envelope flap, you can see that it is designed with several rectangular shapes that are various shades of yellow, pink, orange, red and deep purple. It reminds me a bit of a couple of the designs in the Full of Life DSP from the 24-25 Annual Catalog except the shapes in Celebratory Sips are scaled up to be larger in size.

To decorate the inside of the card I stamped the celery leaf garnish and colored it with Old Olive Stampin' Blends.  Then I stamped two strawberries on a Basic White scrap; colored them with Cherry Cobbler Blends, and die cut with the coordinating Cheers & Sips die.

TIME FOR CELEBRATORY SIPS

This week I am giving you some Sneak Peeks of a new OnLine Exclusive Suite of Products that will be available May 6, 2025.  The sweet is called Celebratory Sips.

It includes the great Cheers & Sips bundle, colorful Designer Series Paper (DSP), a 2-pack of embossing folders, embellishments and ribbon. 

Today's card is made with my FSF Sketch #6  This is a versatile sketch that can be used to show off DSP.  The Celebratory Sips DSP also gives you a sneak peek at some of the new 2025 - 2027 In-Colors.  This card base and the vertical banner use Timid Tiger.

If you missed April's Template Time Learning with Friends Video, you can watch it here to see more cards made with this sketch.

For the drink, I used the Packing Tape Technique that I shared a few weeks ago.  The glass was covered with packing tape before being fussy cut from the DSP to give it a high gloss shine so it realistically looks like glass.

The glass sets on two layers of Around it All dies.

Can you see the shine?  

The little umbrella was stamped on the same floral DSP as the rectangular mat and then die cut with the coordinating Cheers & Sips die.  It makes a really cute garnish for my Timid Tiger drink.

For the inside of the card, I mounted three of the sentiments all on one acrylic block and stamped them at the same time.  So quick and easy.  And you can test it on scraps to make sure you like the spacing and they are all straight!
