My first card I think would make an ideal little thank you to the handyman in your life when he's putting up your selves in the craft room - mine has a job to do tomorrow so will get this when he's finished! It's a tiny 3" square and the stamp is a personal impressions from a tool set. The cocktail inspiration comes from the name - a screwdriver is basically the fancy name for vodka and orange.......
My second card is a Christmas one - Magnum from Ladybug Crafts stamped on kraft and coloured with pencils. The cocktail here is an oldie but a goodie - a Snowball - advocaat, lime and lemonade - I was always allowed a very weak one with my Nannan on New Years Eve and thought it was the height of sophistication - well you would when you were 8 or so wouldn't you ;-)
I think that's exhausted my cocktail stamp ideas and I have to go and make tea as we're out early tonight at the Sheffield Comedy Festival - I may even partake in a cocktail while I'm there!
Catch you later ;-)
Well done Tara they are both great xx Jan

I have heard of a "screwdriver" drink...but never heard of the second one. You are definitely creative and unique with your card! Well done!
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas Tara and both fab cards too, not a cocktail drinker myself and I think these are the only two I could name...funny, my nan let me try a 'snowball' at Christmas time around that age too!
