One Martini, Two Martini....

This snowman knows how to party!  I loved this Stampin' Up snowman even before I realized I could put a drink in his hand and pair him up with this humorous sentiment!  I know there's a lot of snowmen floating around out there this time of year and I wanted mine to sort of stand out.  I don't think there are a lot of martini drinking snowmen out there so I think that I've accomplished my task.
