Tuesday Trigger - Chiclectic

When I first saw the photo for this week's Tuesday Trigger, I thought no way am I going to be able to make a card.. such bold colors. But yesterday, it just came together.


This is the inspiration picture. And underneath is my card.


I used a wine label (may they live long) as it already had gold incorporated in it. The stamp is from Hero Arts called Floating Garden which I distressed and sprayed with water before I stamped direct onto the label. The background (black to match the bedspread) is also a Hero Arts Stamp, a friends definition. My thanks to the lovely Tiffany who sent me a bunch of Cameos a while back!

Now I have a KITCHEN TIP:

When using old bread to make breadcrumbs in the Food Processor for a meal, add oil and herbs to give them more flavor. These are delicious on top of a Fish dish. Source: Jamie Oliver.

    You captured the colors in the original photo beautifully--and your wine labels in the previous post and what you did with them is just sublime! Thank you for the kitchen tips, as well--I will have to try making bread crumbs in my food processor; I'm just now discovering all the wonderful things it can do!

    I like how you incorporated the wine label. I really am enjoying viewing your wine label cards! The splash of pink and matching cameo are perfect!
    I'm appreciative of the bread crumb tip and will certainly use it!

    Well those are some pretty bold colors like you said. But you pulled it off.. Your card is gorgeous.

    Thanks for the tip.. I use bread crumbs for my Chicken parm.. I bet that would work for that..
