10. The rest of the design, such as "handle body" and "wine cup", you can also use some of the tools you have attached to design these parts. You notice every part of the design, create a layer for them.

Here are the steps I did.

- Body handle

Part VI, Complete postcards

So you designed to complete all the small parts on card_01. Again, "drag" set "tap hop cups" on this "Ly" document to "Thiep_01"

- Right click set "Tap hop cup"> Duplicate layer set => Duplicate set to create a new glass.

- Minimize the size of cups, and place them in an appropriate position on the postcard.

Here is an example

- Look at the champagne boys not "natural", try putting a bow on a champagne boy. Use the "Custom shape tool" tool and select "chiec no" icon on the option bar.

Add 2 new layers, draw 2 bows with 2 different colors. Not very good! But surely you will be more creative when drawing the bows on your postcard.

- Finally, send a message to send your love and sincere words to your loved one through cards. The Text tool will help you do that. Remember, it is not too strange to write text, because if you are more sophisticated with the effects of font text, it will make the card more "confused" by too many details.

1. Activate Hirizontal type tool (press T)
2. Open the Palette character table (edit text properties): Windows > character .
3. Type the text of the message, and adjust the color, font, size for text on the palett character.

- You can try the Style effects of text in Blending option just as you do with Layer

New year cards are finally completed. You can stop at this step, If you have practiced the song "Birthday card for your loved one" please spend another 2 minutes to create a few more snowflakes on the photo background.

This is my card.
