It's Five O'Clock SOMEWHERE!!

Seriously, how fricken CUTE can this stamp set from There She Goes get?? The little drinks, the cute little tiki bar, the AWESOME sayings??!! Yep, nothing says summer like a nice cold drink served in a coconut....oh CABANA BOY!!!LOL!! Dont' I wish!! Seriously though, I made this card for this past Friday's Weekend Sketch Challenge, hosted by my pal Charmaine!! As soon as I saw the cute little circles, I KNEW what I was going to put in them. I started by stamping my three drinks from Life's A Beach (I just saw that this set was out of stock, I am so sorry!! Jessica is usually pretty quick to get them back though, so no fear)on an MFT Perfect Panel with Memento tuxedo Black ink. I then colored them in with my Copics. They were punched out with my 1 1/4in circle punch, then layered with either Regal Rose or So Saffron, which was punched with the 1 3/8ths. The scalloped circles are Old Olive. All three punches are from SU. The DSP is from the Georgia Peach pack, and I used the previously mentioned colors for my layers. I then added some So Saffron polytwill ribbon, some Regal Rose wide grosgrain, Old Olive narrow grosgrain, and then some white grosgrain. The brads are from Spare Parts(Hobby Lobby). I added some crystal effects to the drinks to make them shiny...now if only my cabana boy would bring me one???!!!
Well, anyway, that is it for me now!! I will be back soon to announce the winner of my BLOG CANDY!! You have until 12pmCST to get entered, so better get it in gear!!
