BBTB2: Ole! It's National Margarita Day

It's National Margarita Day, so at Bitten By the Bug2, our hostess for the week, Kelly, from Kellys Koncoctions, has come up with the theme of "Fiesta".  I created a layout from our cruise a few years ago.  Although not really fiesta based, it uses some of the same cuts, and it was a real festive treat for us to see Mayan ruins for the first time.  I used Ole for the gecko, chili peppers and word "Tulum".  The 'Mayan Ruins" sign is from Destinations.  I embossed the chilies with red embossing powder, but they have a pinkish hue instead of the bright red I was looking for.  I also embossed the gecko legs with blue.  The white circle/tags are for my journaling.   Join us for our "Fiesta" day at BBTB2 and create a wonderful project while drinking margaritas!  Cheers!
