For a wine lover's 40th birthday

It's my son in law's 40th birthday soon and as he's a serious wine lover I've made him this card:



I love making double easel cards with an angled easel and a straight one - non crafters think they look so complicated and yet they are so very easy! And of course they give you lots of surface to decorate which increases the impact of the card.

For the backgrounds I've used an old set of Card-io peg stamps to make a border on the base, an edging on the triangular easel panel and an all-over pattern on the rectangular easel panel. The bottle,  glass and bunches of grapes are stamped with a Honey-Doo crafts stamp set (and how I wish I had matching dies!) and then coloured with Promarkers and a white gel pen. The numbers are cut with Spellbinders dies.

I am sharing this with Passion for Promarkers - Fancy Folds
