The theme was Girls Night Out! The only catch was you had to use one of the MFT's Who's That Girl sets. Well I used my Hanging With My Peeps set. Originally she is holding a little bird, but I thought since it's GNO, why not hold some purses. Someone always has to stay behind and hold the purses while your dancing right?
So for my card, I paper pieced her outfit, using decorative paper from Luxe's Cocktail Dress series...Amaretto Sour & Martini. Appropriate wouldn't you say so... I even paper pieced her shoes as well. Then I stamped and embossed my purses from my MFT "Monsters Ink" set, and placed a rhinestone on top. Colored with copics, arranged purses, layered my card and added ribbon.
For the purses I found this cute template...http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=424164. I used both sides of the Martini paper to create these. I added a Velcro button to the inside and put a red button on the outside attached by a glue dot.
For the martini glasses, which I got at the dollar store ($2 total) I used Martha Stewart's glitter glue and added Martha Stewart chunky glitter around the edges. Then I used some left over paper (Martini) and made olives. Attached them to the toothpick and stuck them in the glass. I used my nestabilities to cut the circles for the glass charm. I stamped her shoes and colored with copics, cut out and glued to the charm. I had some silver stretchy cord so I used that to tie it on to the glass.
I think this little set came out really cute! I really like the glasses but I think they will just be for show. Don't want to swallow a bunch of glitter! TFL
