This is my Valentine for my youngest son (by 8 minutes). I made cocktail Valentines for most of my family this year... this is due to those awesome Spellbinders Happy Hour Dies! I have been having so much fun with them. Jon loves an Old Fashioned. I think this is a funny drink for the young these days - that drink has been around forever and is suddenly in revival mode. Google tells me that popular lore credits its creation to a bartender at the Pendennis Club in Louisville, Kentucky, in 1881, inspired by distiller James E. Pepper.

So super cute, Stephanie! These are amazing dies, and I love the colors you used - looks JUST like an Old Fashioned! Thanks so much for playing at Make My Monday!

Stephanie... this is just fabulous! Did you see Carol's valentini? So love these drink cards. Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful card with Just Us Girls.
ReplyDeleteI know he loved this custom card you made him. Love the drink details you added and of course that heart embossed background! Thanks for playing with JUGS!
ReplyDeleteFab card! Love the design. Thanks for stopping by my Blog. You asked about 143 and I Love You: I (1) Love (4) You (3) as it has the same amount of letters as the numbers. We're on Cape Cod and that particulate lighthouse is called Minot Light located in Scituate Mass, another gorgeous seaside town!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the info. We have a home by the sea in NJ named for it's lighthouse - Barnegat Light. Lighthouses are so wonderful. Thanks for stopping by my blog!

What a great pair of Valentine's Day cards you've created. The multiple layers of the drinks are fabulous, but the stirrer and the embossing folder are such fabulous pieces of this card! Thanks for playing along with our Make My Monday challenge. I hope you play along with our next challenge! Sue - DT
