  • Cut a piece of yellow cardstock to 4 x 4 1⁄2”, add brown shading to the edges and adhere it onto the card base.
  • Die-cut parts of barrel out of brown cardstock and foam mount them onto the card.
  • Die-cut several branches of grapes and leaves out of watercolor cardstock. Color them, place around the barrel and adhere with glue.
