cocktails




3 parts Courage
2 parts Talent
1 part Intellect

And a Splash of Impishness

Finish off with an olive (this part i agree with love olives!!)
The rest well not too sure but would love to think so! :-0

Gosh ladies you don't half know how to stump us!This week the Less is more Challenge is to make a card with cocktails as the theme -  of course I don't have anything to do with cocktails ( meaning card wise i hasten to add) animal or even as some of you clever people have done, dresses ,so thought I'd download an image - this one with all my scribbles on it,.Then while the boys and hubby were busy building flat pack units for one of the boy's rooms (and I would just be in the way) I decided to have a bash at drawing it,coloured it with promarkers and chalks though in real life it is much paler any one else find that happens when it comes up on the screen ?? .Then printed out a list of some cocktails,stuck on a big fat gem and some stickles for fizz and there you have it,my take on this weeks challenge
            ... hope you like it! and once more thank you for all your lovely comments last week and a big thank you to Liz for becoming my 14th follower x

    Very resourceful Jenni! Your cocktail looks brilliant and I love the cocktail list text you've used as a background too. I've never thought to use "I don't want to get in your way..." as an excuse to slip off and craft but I've filed it away for future reference! Vx
