** Replaced with better daylight photo.
This is my sample for Carla's WTUI challenge - which you can find HERE.
This was a bit of a challenge for me, I have to say, and this was the best I could come up with. These are certainly no spring chickens. I think the one on the right isn't sure whether she's aiming for the Wizard of Oz or being Mrs. Claus. I have very few images with people at all, and certainly none suitable for the challenge, as they are just not my personal style.
The image was a RAK, coloured with Inktense pencils, and with silver and gold pens and lots of Stickles. I added a die-cut border along each edge, and then stamped the sentiment part of a Serendipity stamp above and below. Then I edged it with stickers to finish it off.
I think there are so many people I could give this to - some of the ladies in work would love it, especially given that we start drinking soon after ten in the morning, LOL. It's definitely 5 o'clock somewhere, though.

Great card with those old birds having their cocktails! I like how you added the fancy corners for a bit of an elegant touch I'm sure some of your coworkers would appreciate this especially considering what you do at your job. Cute!!
