Happy Birthday "Cheers" Card

Karen Brown4 Comments
I have a friend whose birthday is in December and she has a party every year with the subtitle \”Midweek Merrymaking\”.  She loves to try new cocktails so I thought she would like this CAS card.  I am looking forward to giving it to her next month.  
V04, B00 & YG01

I stamped three beverages from \”Raise a Glass\” by Clearly Besotted, then colored with Copic markers.  I really like the color combination of V04, B00 and YG01.    I fussy cut the images,  added a bit of gloss using Nuvo Tonic Clear Glaze and put them away to dry.  I then took an A2 card and scored two lines above and below where I wanted to attach the cut-outs.  I thought this would frame my focal point.  Next, I heat embossed a sentiment and adhered all 4 pieces with 3D foam squares.  Last, I stamped Happy Birthday inside the card.

I should do this more often, but I took a picture of the supplies I used

I am entering this card in the following challenges:

 For your blog

Seize The Birthday #154 – I went all the way and used the CAS \”Topping\”.

This is my first blog post….EVER!  I am featuring a card that I really enjoyed creating for The Stamp Ink Paper Challenge #146 – Food and Drink.  I used the fun citrus drink from Sunny Studio Tropical Paradise Stamp Set.

Handmade Card

I used copic markers to color the bright beverages and then topped with Wink of Stella.
