Less Tequila

The challenge at Art Impressions for May was dancing. When I saw this stamp, I knew I had to use it. Of course, I entered the contest with 2 1/2hrs to spare. Nothing like waiting till the last minute!

To make the card, I use Nestabilities Labels 8 for the shape, stamped my image (the dancers are one image) with Memento ink, and colored everything with Copic markers. To give a hint of ground under the dancers, I brushed on some brown chalk. I don't think I normally would have added the strip with the saying, but I messed up and had to cover the mistake. :)

I LOVE this card!! Too cute! Is it because I can envision joining the dance after a wee bit too much Patron? Q

This cracked me up! I love the stamp and the message. Hmmm were the beverages at VSN your inspiration?

lOL! Too funny and of course fantastic coloring. Love the fact that you had a boo boo and had to use the strip. Sounds like me!

Sometimes a mishap will make you do something just a bit different and I like the sentiment... LOVE it... because it just fits so well. Love those ladies dancing. Marvelous coloring.
