And based on the men I know, their world would involve fire somehow. I don’t know what it is, but men seem to like fire.
A recent order came in requesting favors for a husband’s 40th birthday party. There was no “theme” per say but she did say she was going to have a few things printed up with “40 & Hot”. My thought process went from Man…Hot…Fire. Flames! And so I designed these 40′s that are on fire. Super fun to make and in my opinion a super cool and unique theme for such a milestone birthday.
Dew my inspiration from this cool car flame
Wanted it to be a fuller flame around the 40 so I drew it up using a Bic marker
Then went to town
Happy Birthday Curt
Oh and I have to thank Pinterest for this order. Small world it is…the super nice woman who placed this order lives in Bellingham, Washington…where I WENT TO COLLEGE!!! I couldn’t believe it. Testament that social media does in fact work

The birthday boy must have loved these. They are great and I too love that social media really can bring us all closer together.

I’m sure these made him feel younger and ready to roll. Or at least remind him of the “hot” rods of the past. They were “cool”!
