SOS #204: Red, Red Wine

It's Tuesday, and time for a new challenge over at Shopping Our Stash. Once again, the ladies were put at the mercy of my ear worm, as I thought of Neil Diamond's Red, Red Wine*. So this week we'd like you to make a card that either features red as the main color - OR - use wine as your theme. Or mix it up and do both!

Here's my card, then I'll explain:

Please pretend that little orange tab doesn't look like a bandage. I thank you.

Now is the time I come clean and admit I totally backed into this card.  You see, I pulled out my Simon Says Stamp Adult Beverages set to stamp the wine glass, and found pre-stamped, pre-colored, pre-covered-with-Tim-Holtz-Frost-Film images in the package. Sometimes, when you're indecisive (like the last time I used this set, apparently), and you over-stamp, keep those things, as you just never know when they may come in handy. :)

So I started with that glass of blush wine. I can't drink red wine, but I do love a good blush or Riesling. The color of the wine drew my eyes to my not-yet-put-away Fancy Pants True Friend 6x6 paper pack, and the rest is ... well, you're looking at it. I used up a bunch of tiny pieces of the paper, and even cut into a new one for the brownish layer. Heck, this card is practically all stash! Whoot!

So, got some wine-themed stuff? Love red? Why not join us this week at SOS?

Thanks for stopping by!

*No, UB40 did not write Red, Red Wine. Neil Diamond did, in 1968. I've seen ND perform UB40's version, and thank them, but ... no, ND wrote it.
