Hello Friends, How are you? I hope you all are healthy and safe. If you live anywhere near the fires my prayers are with you and anyone that is helping in any way.
I am popping in today to share a really fun stamp set from Picket Fence. It’s available for purchase now and it’s aptly named Happy Water stamp set. The Happy Water Stamp and die set are also available for a limited time, while supplies last. The exclusive collaborations are selling out in record time this year, so if you love something don’t delay.
Love the new mix of sequins and boy did they sell out fast … sorry about that. The good news you can be notified when back in stock.
It was hard to decide which sentiment to stamp so I stamped them all on the background. Make it easy by not removing the sentiments and place the acetate with the stamps in your misti. Ink them up and away you go.
In this case the shadows were colored first. The sentiments were stamped with Warm Glow ink (watercolor and marker friendly). One thing to notice is that I did NOT mask the drinks. Since Warm Glow ink isn’t really dark I knew the marker would cover most of the letters on the drinks.
This was photographed at night so it’s hard to see the glossy accents on the olives and ice.
Even if you don’t drink this was so fun to color these cocktails and seriously these sentiments I LOVE them!
I hope your week is off to a good start and see you soon. Hugs, Kathy

Thank you Carol
Just love this. Such a fun colourful card. The extended shadows make you think of low evening sun…. perfect time for cocktail hour! Or if you use my Uncle in Scotland fav saying… “it’s 5 o’clock somewhere in the world…. cocktail hour”
Love it!
Such a fun stamp set and I love how you used it, Kathy!! It’s been a while but I’ve used an entire stamp set right on its sheet to create a background – good reminder! Showstopper though are all your cast shadows from the drinks – exceptional!!
Thank you Linda – so much
