Happy Friday! I'm over on the Jane's Doodles' blog sharing this card today.
I created a 'table' for my glasses by using the thin stripe from Dots and Stripes, inking it up, and then swiping the ink pad across the stamp to create the woodgrain.
The glasses were stamped slightly overlapping one another because I wanted to play with the colors a bit and show the difference in color where the different liquids overlap. I simply colored them with Copics, and where they overlapped, emphasized that with a little extra Copic coloring.
To give it a little more interest, I used Liquid Glass (similar to Glossy Accents) on the glasses. I wanted them to appear distinct, so I did this in two steps. I added the Liquid Glass to alternating glasses, and once that was dry, went back and did the others.
You can see that this creates a distinction between the glasses. I got a fair amount of bubbling when I did this, but it actually works in this instance since many of these drinks are bubbly.
I hope you have something to celebrate this weekend! Tomorrow night I've got an evening all to myself as Andrew is taking the girls to the Daddy Daughter Dinner Dance at church. Have a great weekend!
