Cheers!

 Hi Everyone, I've been in playing mode, at last. I have a few stamps that I really have to use. This is card has some of them, using 2 sets of stamps to put these together. I stamped the main celebration image, then decided to add corners to it and decided to copy myself from this card and add the Cheers. I coloured them with DI's and dripped a big spot, that was not removable! I hate wasting what I attempt and try to do something with it. Hence, the shape of the image and corners.

Looking through some sketches to see if anything worked, I saw one that I could adapt, with a digital paper I found too, which I thought could work. I printed it and added it to red card. I cut a very narrow border then used a couple of off cuts for the banner shapes. Whew! A rescue that didn't turn out too bad.

I then went into Photoshop and designed an insert, and found a font similar to the font for "Cheers". Goodness knows where the verse came from, but I must have read it somewhere, as it popped into my head. I added a glass from my files and coloured it half full. A simple frame around the glass and sentiment, as I thought the front was busy enough and may have been overkill if I added the dp inside.
