Aud Sentiments Challenge -18 August 2011

Well you certainly don't make life easy for us at the Aud Sentiments Challenge Blog as we had a wonderful turnout of entries for the challenge last fortnight.  Click here to see if you are a winner.
This fortnight we are lucky to be sponsored by Whimsie Doodles.  They have a gorgeous array of images to choose from so you must go and have a look.
For my card I have used the margarita's image and coloured the image in with Promarkers, cut out with my new X-cut doorhanger die, inked the edges to distress a little and then put Glossy Accents over the glass to make it more realistic.  I am not sure why the card turned into green based - maybe it was the two pieces of paper I spied that I won in blog candy.  I couldn't decide so I used both - the check one is from Lime Twist by My Mind's Eye and is a double-sided piece of paper with trains on the other side.  The one that looks like limes is from my Basic Grey Lime Rickey paper pad.  With the Basic Grey off-cuts I used a small X-cut circle die and cut them out and mounted on foam to add some dimension.  The card is finished off with some mirri card cut with an X-cut die, get well sentiment off the computer, glittery Henbury Lane brad, ribbon, flower brads and small circle brads.
