One Martini

I love this sentiment but it should be one tequila, two tequila, which I have! The sad thing is until I posted this card I thought I had put the tequila sentiment on, lol! Luckily my husband loves both martinis AND tequila. I cut out the image and put him on the background I made.

and then I reprinted the sentiment!
