Michelle Short

Cheers by Michelle Short for Hero Arts

What a fabulous kit! I love the Art Deco feel to it and I think its great for lots of different occasions. For my card, I took the lady in the hat holding a martini image from the main stamp set and stamped this on to a panel of white cardstock with Intense Black Ink. I coloured her with Copic Markers, adding some shading around her for added interest.

I then took the 'cheers!' sentiment from the Deco Celebration set, which is an add-on set this month, and stamped this beside the image with the same black ink. To ground the image, I took a thin black strip of black cardstock and cut the end at an angle. This was added to the panel with liquid glue and then the panel was added to an A2 white card base. 

Win a kit before you can buy it! Just leave a comment on this (and every) Countdown to Creativity post! We’ll randomly draw one lucky winner from all the comments left across all countdown posts, and announce the winner first thing Monday morning, February 4th, before the kit launches at 10am Pacific.

Good luck!

    Such a lovely, elegant, clean and simple card. The shading around the elegant lady is just perfect!! Love the font on the word “Cheers” — perfect for the 20’s era! My mom was born in 1922 and she is still alive — 97 years old!! She’ll get a kick out of this kit!!!

    Your kits are so innovative and original – only thing stopping me from subscribing is the international shipping cost. Would love to win this kit for sure with its 1920’s art deco vibes …
