Masculine Birthday - Whiskey Business

I CASEd this card directly from the Stampin' Up! catalog. I used the Whiskey Business stamp set. I had to improvise because I didn't have exactly what was in the picture. As you can see I circled the picture in the book because I wanted to recreate it. 

I made this for my honey for his birthday. Ironically, he often drinks Old Fashions when we go out to dinner.



Stamp Set: Whiskey Business
Paper: Early Espresso Card Stock, Early Espresso DSP (retired), Very Vanilla Card Stock, Crumb Cake Card Stock
Ink: Momento
Embellishments: Twine
Tools: Label Punch (I can't remember the name of the exact punch because it too is retired.)

Happy Valentine's Day

Just a little something I CASEd for Valentine's Day. Nothing big. I went online and searched for male or masculine Valentine's Cards and this is what I liked.


 

Tangible Events DMV

So this weekend, I participated in a Paint and Sip event with Tangible Events DMV, a black owned event. It was a live stream event. The artist, Vanessa, gave us step-by-step directions for creating our masterpieces. Her directions were very easy to follow.

Here is an example of the Tangible Box. I got so excited after opening my box, I began pulling everything out and forgot to take a picture.  In my box, there were 2 easels, 2 canvases, 2 packs of brushes, candy, paint, rosé, rum, vodka, and wine. Your box depended on which package you ordered. It had everything we needed to sip a little bit and a paint a lotta bit. 


Here is the picture I painted. I added 2 extra hearts, just because I'm extra like that.

Finally, I was asked to take their logo and create two shirts for the host and his amazing wife. This is a picture of her shirt. Her shirt was silver glitter, while his was white with his name on the back.


I had so much fun painting with Tangible Events. I can't wait until the next event!
