Hot Flash Happy Hour!

What a fun stamp set name... by Unity Stamp Co.  

I coloured her up with Copic markers, and die cut her with the Essential Arches dies from Spellbinders.

Sentiment is from Uncorked by My Favorite Things

Sip, Sip Hooray!

I just adore this sentiment from My Favorite Things!  You've seen my wine themed/ink blended cards on my blog a few weeks ago, but I have a new colourway using Distress Oxide Inks that I quite love:

Inks are Tattered Rose, Worn Lipstick, Picked Raspberry & Seedless Preserves Distress Oxides; Tim Holtz Mini Wine Blueprints stamp, Sentiment is My Favorite Things; Spellbinders Hemstitched Rectangle Die.

Wine cards

I had a little time to play with some new things this week - Tim Holtz Blueprint mini stamps: Wine, and a new-to-me My Favorite Things stamp set called "Uncorked" (a whole bunch of fun wine themed sentiments).  I also played around with my Oxide Distress inks, doing an ombre blend of Candied Apple, Abandoned Coral, Worn Lipstick, Spiced Marmalade & Wild Honey:

 I experimented a little with water spatters, and some gold paint spatters...

 And I am in love with these "Hemstitch Rectangle" dies from Spellbinders!  I love the effect.

Next up will be the Tim Holtz Beer Blueprint minis, so stay tuned :o)
