Lots of fun friends and wine releases today!

But before we get onto that -

I've made a few fun cards with the new Sentiment Kit - also released today!

All new{Be inspired} challenge is also starting up today,

so make sure that you come and join us this month!

So, here's the challenge inspiration photo and sketch:

Don't you just love the new color scheme?

Probably my fave so far!

So the rules for the challenge are - 

use the color combo and/or the sketch.

There's no other rules... 

except to use Unity stamps.

Makes sense, and easy enough?

To see the new sentiment kit - click here. 

Using that - I've made two quick cards today for the challenge!

Made each of the hearts into balloons.

I simply layered them, adhered foam on the foremost one, 

each with jute twine attached,

and tied them together with a red twine.

Simple but cute!

Next up is a washi tape card!

Since I love these colors so much, 

I was able to find enough to cover the whole lengthwise amount for the card base.

I adhered them at random lengths one beside another,

and then ran through the cutting machine to make heart cuts.

I backed the opening with a vellum and stamped the sentiment right on it.

The last up is the only new wine stamp release that I had a chance to make.

This one jumped at me and thought that it would be fun to make!

Let's get SIP FACED!

For this one, I stamped the wine image onto the white paper,  

cut out inside bottle portion of each of the bottle,

and backed it with transparency and various colored cardstock.

It's really fun to see this in person!

Don't forget to check out all the other fun wine stamps -

including a new ANGIEgirl, Fashionista girls and lots more!

Anyway - this feels like such a short post compared to my usual!

Been busy with the holidays - which is a good thing!

Don't forget to leave some love as TWO LUCKY WINNERS will receive:

Such a fun array of itty bitty stamps, right?

Also - HAPPY HOUR WINE DOT SALE IS ON!

Go check it out - don't miss out on the good deals!

Now, onto your next stop - 

Renee Aslette!

I know she's got some beautiful projects to share today!
