Italian Thank you cards

     If you saw my post from a couple of days ago, I made 4 "Thank you" cards in German for a co-worker of mine.  Today I'm posting the 4 Italian "Thank you" cards that she also wanted. 
     The image is from Digi Stamp Boutique, it is a company in the UK.  The set is called "Fancy a Tipple Doodles." Funny name...    This first one is made with Real Red, Old Olive and a misc dp. I colored with Copics and Prismacolor Markers. i added Stickles for the wrapper at the top and on 3 of the labels.  I added Stickles on 3 of the Wine buckets and the ice cubes.   This card has the fancy corners, using the Creative Memories corner punch.  This must be "Rose" wine.  The sentiment, "Grazie" I printed on the computer and mounted on an oval mounted on a scallop oval that I pierced.
           This is using Perfect Plum & Certainly Celery Card stock and Basic Grey "Springtime" dp. I added a piece of plum colored ribbon.  This must be a "Burgundy" wine.
    Here is another "Rose" (rose-ayyy) wine.  This is Real Red, Lovely Lilac card stock and Basic Grey "Euphoria" dp. 
     Here is another Burgundy, or maybe Merlot??  The card stock is Certainly Celery, and the dp is from Basic Grey "Hello Luscious."  I paper pieced the strip on this ice bucket.
       Well, I hope you enjoyed the "Italian" cards today!!   I hope Mary, my co-worker likes them!!
    P.S. Today is my birthday!!!  I'm working today, so I'm going to stop and pick up some bagels on my way in.   Today is also our Christmas Cookie Exchange.  I'm taking in "Pizelles."   What a coincidence, I think they are an Italian cookie!!

Secret Sister #4 Unusual Fold card

Image
Here is my Secret Sister Challenge #4. We were to make a card with an unusual fold.  I'm not sure what this fold is called. I have made it before, but this time seemed a bit more challenging!!  I hope you can tell that it is PURPLE!!   I hope my SS likes it.  I did emboss the flowers, sponged around the edges and added bling! She does like bling!! The paper is SU Lavendar Lace, and Gina K Vibrant Purple. I used Stephanie Barnard's the Stamps of Life , Thanks 2you, for the flowers, and Banners 4all for the "hi". This is the partially opened position. I added 2 Primas and a rhinestone brad. This is the open position. I hope my SS likes this one. I LOVE the colors myself!!! Here are the dimensions if you would like to try the card yourself. 1.Cut an 8-1/2 x 11 peice of cardstock in half lengthwise. 2.Score at the dimensions marked. Here is what it looks like when scored. I cut the contrasting color 1/8" smaller.  This card has a circle tha...
