Let the Sneak peaks commence!!!

I am so excited as today we can finally share our sneak peaks for the upcoming High Hopes release on Wednesday.... Yes, that's right... Wednesday 20th January!!!

You are in for a real treat and our new artist Dustin has done an awesome job! Well today over at the High Hopes blog for our new challenge this week you will see that the team have all used stamps from the new release:-) Wow, you will be blown away by their samples!

Our challenge topic this week has been chosen by the talented Jeanne who is asking us to use Spacey colours. Don't think just because you don't have the new images you can't play along! There are zillions of High Hopes stamps which would compliment Spacey colours.. green, blues and purples!!!

The fun image used on my card today is called Willy One Eye. I have coloured my one eyed friend with Prismacolor pencils with sansodor and paper stumps to blend. I was quite heavy with the red to create a more vibrant colour and just tickled the darker parts to blend lightly. I also added a little stickles sparkle to his spots and the ground.

Isn't the paper fab! I got so excited when I see this Orbit paper kit by Crate Paper. These kits are bursting with quality heavy papers and fun diecuts and stickers. To finish my card I added some jute for some added texture, buttons from the Sherbet collection and NEW Iridescent 4mm Pearls.

All new High Hopes stamps will be available to purchase from Bunny Zoe's Crafts on Wednesday, 20th January!!!

Have a wonderful Sunday and hope we see lots of you playing a long this week! You will want to play as our prize is some stamps from the new release!

Hugs,
