A big CONGRATS to you, Judy! I always love visiting your wonderful gallery. Today, I chose Thankful for You to case. I kept the layout, but flipped it. I changed the images, the colors and the theme. I also traded the ribbon for a stamped border. (After the beating I took from my ribbon on Friday's challenge, I'm not risking it again so soon, lol.)
I stamped all the drinks, colored them w/ markers, glittered them up w/ stickles then cut them out. I even managed to wait until the stickles dried before touching them. That hardly ever happens. I did the same thing to the border strip w/ the lanterns and retro chain.
I cut trapezoid squares out of several colors w/ a Cuttlebug die, used a Sizzix dots embossing folder on the white ones, then reassembled. I used the left over red, turq and lime centers to make the layer behind my greeting.
Using the neptune ink, I stamped the retro sparkles all over my white bg. This is attached to a red sparkle bg then to a white card. TFL

What a cute card! I love the little bit of cuttlebuggin behind the drinks! You did Judy proud. Hey, I have an idea! Maybe I will send Judy's giraffes over and we can watch them get schnockered and maybe they will make a noise! Then we will find out what giraffe's sound like! Snort!

Julie, I love these cocktails filled with beautiful colors. Great art deco look. I love your non symetric matting in the back of them. Just beautiful case. TFS
