The Heat is On at Twofers

It's time for our new challenge at Twofers, and although Christi is not yet back with us, she has chosen the them of The Heat Is On.

Here in the UK we've not had much hot sunny weather this year, so we're having to get our heat from other sources, like chillis! I've used a great set of chilli themed stamps from Rubber Dance for this card. The background is blended distress inks, overstamped in Stazon and finished with a white Gelly Roll pen, and the chillis were stamped on separate paper, coloured and fussy cut. If I hadn't thrown my Glossy Accents away in a fit of pique recently, I would have added some shine with it, but failing that I used the white pen again to give just the illusion of shine.

 
As I've used hot colours, and our garden is always full of chillis in summer, I am sharing this with Hot Summer Days at Country View Crafts.

Wonderful hot and spicy card! Now, dare I ask, what did the glossy accents do to offend you?! Cara x

They went all gloppy and wouldn't come out of the bottle except all at once when you didn't want them to!
