CASology Week #33 - Circle and Unscripted Sketches #200






Edited to Add:
My clever, CLEVER dear friend Darnell has enlightened me on the number of circles that I actually have on my tag!  She must be really good at doing the "Find Waldo" thing!

"darned if those glass bases aren't circles, and the wine levels are ovalated circles and the "o" in the word "to" is a circle, and, what's that? Isn't the neck of your adorable tag a circle? "

...see, I told you she was clever!!! Thanks pal!

Well folks, a rather loose interpretation of this week's Cue Card at CASology as well as this weeks Unscripted Sketch #200.  I'm thinking that I never should have drank the whole bottle of wine before starting....just kidding!

Where are my circles you ask? The way I figure it is ...
- bubbles are somewhat circular
- the pearls are intended to represent the bubbles
- when viewed from straight on they are like teeny weenie circles.....

Yes? No? Maybe? Maybe Not?

I did try using punched paper for the bubbles, but it just didn't have the same effect as the pearls.

I made my own tag template (100 tries to get it right!), fussy cut the wine glasses and paper pieced the lovely Merlot.  I'm sure you all know that Merlot doesn't have bubbles ... but it sounds a bit more sophisticated than Baby Duck, Lacosta or Strawberry Patch!  Yes, those were the wines of choice 37 years ago!

I added a bit of Copic Cool Grey at the base of the glasses and stamped a Studio G sentiment.  Stampin' Up pearls were colored with a light blue Copic marker.

Tons of inspiration by both DT's and some awesome entries posted, so head on over to the blogs and check things out!

Happy crafting!

  1. Well, clever you, Geri, and darned if those glass bases aren't circles, and the wine levels are ovalated circles and the "o" in the word "to" is a circle, and, what's that? Isn't the neck of your adorable tag a circle?

    (Ovalated. I might have to trademark that one, huh?!)

  3. If you had any trouble with the 'circles' cue card, it doesn't show here! Even after a bottle of wine! I see as many circles as Darnell did, and let's not forget the circles left by drippy wine glasses on your white linen table cloth. This is fun and creative. Love it my friend. Bev
