To create…
1 Trim red cardstock to 12×3 3/4″ and border punch the long edges.
2 Trim a piece of patterned paper to 12×2 1/2″ and distress the long edges. Ink the edges with the black-brown ink and attach in the centre of the red card strip.
3 Paint the grungeboard with white paint and allow to dry. Ink first with the creamy brown and then with the brown–black ink.
4 Use the Big Bite to punch two holes on either side of the letter and thread through with twine.
5 Layer the letter onto the paper strip with the large Petaloo blooms.
6 Write ‘drink me’ onto the Science Fair paper, trim and attach to the monogram as shown using sticky foam. Tie the wrap around a drinking glass.
