...Coffee Lover's blog hop!

Good afternoon! - if you are here to check out our new release sneak peeks for tomorrow's new release please scroll down - if not then you might be here for the Spring Coffee Lovers Bloghop! I'm taking part today and bear with me if I make any mistooks, it's my first time at this hop!

There are a ton of fabby companies sponsoring this hop - of which we here at Waltzingmouse Stamps are delighted to be one! There are prizes galore and to be in with a chance of winning one of the sponsor prizes, you will need to enter a post on the InLinkz List found on The Coffee Lovers Blog here. 

I hear that you can find all sorts of blog candy and other goodies just by hopping through the entire list so I would strongly advise that you take a peek at all the posts (cough...also see bottom of this post...cough)

The hop will start on Friday, February 27th and run until Friday, March 6th at 11:55 pm pacific. We would love for you to do one link per post, so if you have multiple cards please post them separately.  You must link up a newly created Spring-y project in order to be eligible for any of the Sponsored prizes. You must link your projects to the Inlinkz on the Spring Coffee Lovers Blog Post.

Well since Tea is my liquid of choice I chose to make my card with our Afternoon Tea stamp set. Since I'm literally prepping tomorrows new release, I chose to stamp my main label image in Versamark onto watercolour paper, I then sprinkled on clear embossing powder and heat set it. I used watercolour paints to fill in the negative parts of the label image. It's a bit of a cheat really as the clear embossing resists the paint and it makes it look almost as though I just painted that dinky label by hand! I trimmed out the label and mounted it onto a tag (Waltzingmouse Stamps - Stitched tag dies, see here).

I had embossed the tag with a lovely Tim Holtz embossing folder, the name of which escapes me, and the back panel is embossed with a chevron embossing folder from Spellbinders. A couple of miniature dried rose buds and I was done! I hope you like it!

Blog Candy!

Now for those of you who made it all the way down the page this far, I have blog candy - All I need you to do is leave a comment on this blog post right here. Comments will close on Friday, March 6th at 11:55 pm pacific (which is Saturday March 7th at around 8:00am here in UK) and a winner will be announced later that day! One lucky commenter will win a WMS goodie bag made up of a large set of stamps, a medium set of stamps and a die of their choice from in-stock items!

Hope it tickles! Thanks for playing along!
