There is always an interesting challenge at the Friday Mashup and I play along whenever I have the chance. This week we are asked to follow the sketch, or use an "unexpected element" or "mash it up" and combine both. I went with "mash it up" and I must admit that I've never seen my "unexpected element" (cork slices) on a card before and who knows, maybe I'll start a new trend!
This card was made for a wine loving friend and has a greeting similar to one of my all time favorite sayings "Like fine wine, improving with age."
Close To My Heart products used:
Smokey Plum CS
White Daisy CS
Black Ink
3D Foam Tape
Shin Han Touch Markers--Lavender, Sap Green and Pastel Peach
White Embossing Powder (retired)
Other products:

Let me know what you think of my new embellishment idea.

Guess I am not the only one who thought to use cork on a card! Beautiful card!
I love your Bokeh effect on your celebration card--very cool! Thanks for leaving a comment on my Mashup post about also using cork as a surprise element. I guess we must fit the saying "Great minds think alike!"

Such a fun card, perfect for a wine lover!
Thanks for playing along with us at The Friday Mashup!
What a fun, unexpected element to go with your image. Really love the color purple you chose. Thanks for joining the Friday Mashup this week.
Great 'unexpected' element! So fitting for the card and sentiment. Such a cohesive and fun card! Thanks for sharing with us at The Friday Mashup this week.
