Nothing's Better Than

Cocktails, anyone?  Because Adulting is hard, "Cocktails" which I thought was a cute card so I cased it, but for the life of me, I don't remember who I cased it from.  I searched and searched.  I usually write it down to give credit to so if this was your card, let me know and I'll give credit to you.
The stamp set is called Nothing's Better Than from the annual catalog. The set can also be purchased as a Bundle to include the dies to save 10%. It uses the new In-Color Magenta Madness cardstock and DSP.  The drink looks so refreshing, doesn't it?  I used a Dauber to create different colors in the cocktail.  The sequins are from the Artistry Blooms Sequins.  The Designer Paper is the  6" x 6" In-Color fro 2020-2022 using the Magneta Madness strip.  The Embossing Folder is the Tasteful Textile 3D.  
Instructions for my card:
1.     The base of the card is Magenta Madness cardstock cut at 4-1/4” x 11” and scored at 5-1/2” in the middle.
2.    The second layer is Whisper White cardstock cut at 4” x 5-1/4” and adhered to the front of the card with Multipurpose Glue.
3.    The third layer is Magenta Madness cardstock cut at 3-3/4” x 5” and inserted into the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder and run through the Die Cutting and Embossing Machine.
4.    The Designer Series Paper is cut at 2” x 3-3/4” and adhered to the front of the card Multipurpose Glue and leaving about 1 inch at the bottom of the card showing.
5.    Die-cut the second largest circle from the Stitched Shapes Dies on Whisper White cardstock.  Adhere it over the DSP with Multipurpose Glue.
6.    Ink up the cocktail glass outline stamp with Memento Black ink on a scrap of Whisper White cardstock.  Die-cut it out with the Love You More Than Dies. 
7.    Using a Dauber in Magenta Madness, ink up the bottom of the beverage stamp (ice cubes).  Then use the other Dauber in Mango Melody for the top of the beverage.  Huff on it to give it moisture and stamp it onto the cocktail glass.
8.    Color in the lime with Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Write Marker and the umbrella with Pool Party Stampin’ Write Marker.
9.    Die-cut the word “Cocktails” from Basic Black cardstock and add it below the circle using Multipurpose Glue to adhere.
10.  Ink up the sentiment “Because Adulting is Hard” on Whisper White scrap.  Trim it out with the Paper Snips and add Dimensionals to the back and adhere to the top of the card.
11.   Add three sequins from the Artistry Blooms to the front of the card.
