Simon Says Stamp | A Meal Without Wine…

…Is called Breakfast!

What a great sentiment to use for a funny card! Wouldn’t you agree? I love to have a glass of wine during dinner and I know a lot of my friends love to have one too, so I think this makes a great card for a wine and cheese enthusiast.

CARD DETAILS

I had my eye on Simon’s Time For Wine set for a long time, but I couldn’t find that one perfect image to go with it. Finally I decided to stamp a bear-cook and have him hold a glass of wine.

I used Smoke cardstock for my main panel and did my stamping using Intense Black Ink (the reason I went with Smoke and not white is because I wasn’t planning on coloring the bear at all, but after I colored the hat and apron I decided to add some shading using warm gray markers). The grapes on the top left and bottom right corners were stamped using Stone for a tone-on-tone look. I also stamped cook’s hat and apron in Intense Black onto white paper, colored using Copics and cut out using coordinating dies.

I used the following colors to do my coloring (same I have listed in my Favorite Copic Color Combos chart):

• Chef’s Hat, Bear and Apron – W1, W3, W5.
• Wine: R39, RV29, R24.

I also used a white gel pen to add a highlight to the glass and to color bear’s paws and inside of the ears. Lastly, I added a generous coat of glossy accents to the glass and buttons on chef’s apron.
