This one is for Dark Cloud

Over the holidays we were visiting friends. Somehow diluting red wine with water was mentioned and out of the recesses of their cabinets came this bottle. They brought it back from Europe 25-30 years ago. It seems these split bottles were common as many women liked to mix their wine with water. I had never seen anything like it so I made Boss Hog pose with it so I could show it to DCBS who has a bit of a thing for bottles.
Never one to miss an opportunity, I made him take off his sweater too so you could all see the shirt I made him for our anniversary. It is another freezer paper stencil. I am no longer OBSESSED with stencilling everything, but I do still hold the freezer paper in high regard.

I LOVE the shirt! It never ceases to amaze me the wonders of freezer paper, and the crispness of the images. I demand a hands-on tutorial when you come for a visit!
