Liquid Death, a Skeleton, and Some ATCs

Do you ever fall for super creative marketing?

I couldn't resist buyigg this Sparkling Water after seeing the name and the image on the can.

This water is almost as expensive as beer, but it is soooooo cool.  

Even the wording on the can is cool - here is a little bit of it:

"This infinitely recyclable can of stone-cold sparkling water came straight from the Alps to murder your thirst."

"Once cracked open, no thirst is safe from Liquid Death."

Love it!  It is also my ticket to T-day over at Elizabeth's Blog.

I plan to serve this water at our family Halloween party.  We are going to do a skeleton charcuterie  board too.  We bought a cool skelton at Target to fill with candy and treats on our board  The Grandsons all loved it, and one of them strapped him the car seat for the ride home?


I am still on an ATC kick.  Here are three versions I did for a multi-level Back to School Swap - I signed up for three diffeent ones.

1.  The top one is a book cover theme  - we were supposed to come up with an ATC that looks like an old fashioned book cover.  I had a lot of fun with that one.  I kept this as it wa my favorite. 

2.  The left one was for a cool kid/nerdy kid  theme.  I used a book page, part of a sheet music page, a TH paper doll, some bright ink, and a fun title. 

3.  The right one was for a swap focusing on school supplies.  I kept this one because it was so cute with the mouse but also because it ddn't have a school supply other than the library card. I had intended to add  pencil image, but coudn't seem to find it.  

Happy T-day!  

Hugz,

Nancy

  12. I am late visiting because my electricity was out from shortly before 5:00 p.m. last night for around 19 hours. My apologies if you think I had forgotten or was ignoring you.

    I love those ATCs. You are definitely on an ATC kick.

    I look forward to seeing your Halloween party. That skeleton will surely liven up the place. And that sparkling water was to die for!! I can see why you will be serving it for drinks at the Halloween party. Thanks for sharing your ATCs and your sparkling water with us for T this Tuesday, dear Nancy.

  13. That is one cool can of water. The name is perfect for Halloween. And it is perfect for an October T post. Your grandson is adorable too. I like his idea to strap in the skeleton. And fabulous ATC's also. Hope it was a wonderful T day Nancy. Hugs-Erika

  15. Liquid death, such a cool name and can :)

  16. Ohh I am with you I would buy the water for the can. Very cool. Love the car partner all strapped. The art is just beautiful.

  17. What a cool way to market their sparkling water! Your ATCs are wonderful. I like the variety.

  18. That's a clever bit of marketing. You are actually just paying for the can (as water doesn't cost anything). But I can see it is fun.
    Your ATCs are beautiful. No wonder you want to keep them yourself!
    Sorry I'm late but as you regulars know, we are away on Tuesday, and today we had a power cut so I'm even later (It's nine pm)
    A belated happy T-Day,
    Hugs,

  20. How cool is the water and the can…love it and also the skeleton. Love how your DGS strapped him in the car. I bet it will look fantastic on the board for Halloween. I love all of the ATCs. The fish one does look like leather. Happy Tuesday Nancy. Sending hugs. Jx

Forest Goodies and Other Projects

 Hello Crafty Friends. I just got the Stamperia Forest Paper and Die Cuts in the mail so I had to play with them right away.   I have a combo creation - journal page and card.  On the journal page I used my 6x6 Dina Wakley Journal and laid a base of gesso.  I then used Dina's pastel crayons and some SU! inks and stamps.  Also added in some TH Dress Ink in Vintage Photo since I don't know how to make anything without it  (seriously).   The eagle is a Stamperia Forest die cut and is coated with gesso.  Did a bit of stenciling and distressing to finish the page off.  I am linking this the the **Art*Journal*Journey* September Texture Theme (last day - can't wait to see what October's Theme will be).  The die cut and the little smears add texture to the already very textured page.   I love the blue and green together and was inspired to made a quick card for my Son-in-law who cut down some tree limbs for us the other day.  The paper in the middle is from the Stamperia Forest

A Martini, Peanut Butter Cupakes, and Art

Hello Friends. Today, I have an ecletic mix of drinks, dessert, and art. First, it's T-day somewhere in the world so time for a drink post which I am linking to Elizabeth's Blog - Altered Book Lover.  Last week we had a work related dinner.  When the waitress asked what I wanted to drink, I had a sudden craving for a martini.  I use to love them, but I guess my tastes have changed because I wasn't a fan.  I was a fan of the chips and dips though! And the day before, I brought my Sister's fabulous peanut butter cupcakes.  Mainly because I was craving them and couldn't ask her to make just one..... Over at **Art*Journal*Journey* Elle picked a theme of Books, Cats, and Tea (you can pick one, two or three of the items).  I did a Bible Journal Page in my Journaling Bible - Luke 13:24-25.  After a layer of Gesso, I took a Sharpie pen and drew the kitty, then the narrow door, and then colored the door with Arteza Brush pens. The verse was written with a Micron pen.  This

Milkshake Malt Porter and a Bit of Art

 Hello friends and Happy T-day. It has been hit or miss with me lately on T-day posts. The remodel of our house next door has taken our mental and physical energy.  I think a few more weeks and things will be on the contractor instead of us.  Hopefully I will be back to normal by then. My Oldest Darling Daughter asked if we wanted to come for dinner Saturday.  Translation:  go to the store with me and we will bring part of dinner to your house and you cook the rest.  While at the store, I saw one 6 pack of this fun milkshake porter so, of course, I bought it.  It smells wonderful (a hint of chocolate and a hit of malt) and has a light creamy taste.  I would definitely buy it again if I see it.  My son-in-law did not like it, but he is more a  Miller Lite fan.  Now if this had been a whiskey, he would have been all over it.  LOL.  Linking this to Elizabeth's blog for the T-party gang. Darling Daughter had tried her hand at dried pintos, and she rocked them (I will begging for a rep
