I focused on Lisa's:
-four-big-characters as focal point
-celebrate die cut
I changed:
-occasion
-numbers to letters
-colours
I used my grid mat to line up my letters and then taped them together and cut them out of my front panel. I then blended distress ink onto another panel, to show through. I kept the little centres of the letters to add back in.
Now. I don't actually have an 'eat' die cut. (do you?!) But if you look closely at that Essentials by Ellen Celebrate, the 'at' is together. I trimmed them out of the word, trimmed an 'e' and glued them onto my card front. Go take a closer look - you can hardly tell! I used a Quickie glue pen to adhere the thin die cuts. Its fine tip is perfect for delicate jobs like this.

Great card! I love how you manipulated your die cuts to say what you wanted. Great way to think outside the box!
