The Psycho and The Alcoholic

Good evening all

I have got two friends coming round tonight for a couple of glasses of wine, they both have birthdays over the next couple of days.

As little keepsakes, I thought I would make them each a door hanger. One of my friends likes a few glasses of wine, so the verse I have put on her door hanger is about alcohol and my other friend is the total opposite and doesn't drink but is completely mad, so the verse on her door hanger reflects that.

To make them I have used:

MDF door hangers

Patterned Digital Papers

Spellbinders Decorative Labels Twenty-Eight

Heartfelt Creations Striped Sun Kissed Fleur Stamp and Die set

Tim Holtz Tumbled Glass Distress Ink pad

Memento Paris Dusk Ink pad

Nail Art Miro Beads

Pinflair glue

Winter Snowmen

Good morning

Very unusual for me to do a morning post, but it got to late last night. This is another double Z fold card and is the second of a large order from my colleague at work.
