Cheers!.....



Wow! What a fab weekend we've had down here on the south coast! Breakfast, lunch AND dinner outside-and it's still only May! Hopefully we'll have loads more weekends like this one! It was my BIL Steve's birthday last week and this is the card that I made for him. It wasn't my 1st choice, but the cart I wanted to use for his card hasn't arrived as yet so I had to go to Plan B. I used papers from Creative Cardmaking with a 'booze' theme. There are also some die-cuts with the collection and I've used 2 here- one on the glass and one inside the card. I covered the front of the card with bottle label paper and matted a flat green paper on top of it. I cut the glass from cardstock weight acetate and adhered a piece of shimmer paper behind it, hiding the adhesive with the die-cut label. I added a piece of white card for the froth above the shimmer paper, and then adhered the glass to the card front with foam pads. I added 'STEVE' with mini bottle tops. I cut 'Cheers!' from red mirri and adhered it flat to the green panel. The inside was decorated with a large white sentiment mat with label paper border and another die-cut label.
