Create a vibrant cocktail-themed celebration card featuring a layered Tequila Sunrise glass with realistic dimension. Using three coordinating stencils, you'll build up colour and depth to create a stunning 3D effect with ice cubes and gradient liquid. The design is enhanced with stamping and 3D embossing techniques, finished with a bold 'CELEBRATE' sentiment on a striking red and black card base.
