Day 8: Let's Celebrate - 4th of July "Sun Tea":
Well, I wanted to do a Patriotic red, white and blue card for the 4th of July...and I think I accomplished that even with the Sunset color. The sunset color reminds me of Peach Tea, so this would be my theme for the Coffee Lovers BlogHop.
I again started out with the wax paper technique and sponged the challenge colors on white cardstock; but I wanted the embossing to show up more so I ran it through the Cuddlebug one more time...loved the effect. Stamped and printed my images, colored where necessary, fussy-cut and placed on the background with 3D Thin and Regular Foam Tape. Yummy colors...remind me of rainbow sherbert flavors.

I really enjoy doing the embossing and coloring with the wax paper technique, but the second embossment made a better background...just stopped by, back to commenting, getting closer to the end.
Fabulously fun card, Sue! I love your stripes and the way you placed the glasses on and behind the sentiment frame. Really cool effect. We're so glad to have you on the Color Dare team!
