The Queen's Gambit accepted and declined are very interesting. The Accepted is better for white and can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgJKxb2mhtw

The declined line is better for black and one of the many lines black can play is shown here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZvyGs193QQ

The Evan's gambit is what RunningToothbrush has shown can be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Chj9_vVas10

Queen Gambit is a solid opening and a lot GM's and Super GM's use it. But there is no wonder as it is a solid positional opening. White or Black would have fun with that opening.

The Evan's Gambit typically is more of a playful opening, I would not play it against an opponent of my caliber or higher. But I would highly reccomend it for 3/2 blitz or 2/1 bullet or 1 minute bullet. Otherwise it can backfire if the openent knows the theory and it can actually hurt white more than it can help white. 

With that said QG is great and I highly reccomend it, and for the Evans Gambit use it in blitz and bullet and it will serve you well. That is my tips hopefully they will helpful for anyone who sees this!

Im mean technically it is not, but the Evan's Gambit is a good opening, so I think it is fine to me.
