Whimsy Stamp's New Release!

Good morning!

I have two cards to share with you today using these new Quick Card fronts from Whimsy Stamps. 

My first card I distressed the edges with scissors and added clear crackle paste. While it was wet I curled the edges.  After everything was dry, I added Gold Foundry Wax from Tim Holtz and embossed it.  I added a Hanukkah sentiment using the new die set. A bit of gold cording was added to finish off the card. 

For my second card, I decided to create a shaker card.  I used the Quick Card Fronts again and the Peekaboo Window Die.  I added acetate and crafty foam tape to pop up the frame of the card.  I added gold sequins, gold ribbon, and cut the sentiment into a banner. 

I always appreciate your visits! Thank you!

 

Merry Mail, Whimsy's New Quick Card Fronts

Hello friends!

I missed sharing Whimsy's new release last week.  I was in Disney World with my son, daughter in law, and granddaughter.  Experiencing this with my granddaughter was amazing!

Whimsy's new Quick Card Fronts, Merry Mail, are gorgeous.  I machine stitched around each card and used Sparkle Grit Paste around the perimeter.  I added a sentiment and a small red and white bow. These Quick Card Fronts don't require anything to make them beautiful, which I love! Sometimes you just need a .......well...quick card! ;)

 

Whimsy's New Christmas Release!

Hello friends!

I will be doing a mixture of Halloween and Christmas over the next few weeks.  I am so glad that I have been able to get a bit of time in my craft room again.  It really makes my heart happy.  AND next weekend I am heading to Disney to spend a long weekend with my kiddos and granddaughter. :) 

Today's card uses Whimsy's new stamp set called, Christmas Tickets.  I love that there are coordinating stencils too! I had to use the striped stencil to play off the candy cane theme.  I don't have the dies, but they were easy enough to fussy cut.  I paired the tickets with a light blue background that was embossed with the new Tweed Cover Plate Die.  The subtle texture is perfect.  I added a candy cane that I had glittered, along with a pink bow.  It is giving me confection vibes! 

Thank you for stopping by today!

 

Bad Santa! New Release!

Hello friends!

Happy October 1st!  Today is Whimsy Stamp's new release day!

I am sharing a new stamp set called, Bad Santa.  The images are a riot and make me smile! I love that they come with coordinating dies too. This Santa was colored with Copics and added to the scene found in the new 6 x 6 paper pack called, Cozy Hearth.  I did a bit of machine stitching and added some chunky glitter to the edges.  Such a fun card for Christmas!

Be sure to check out the full release at Whimsy! 

Have a wonderful day!

 

Spooky Delights

Hello friends!

I have a Halloween card to share with you today using a bunch of Whimsy products!

The die cuts are part of the Elvira Moonlighting Die set.  She was colored in with Tim Holtz inks and Copic Markers.  I wanted her to look more like the bride of Frankenstein. ;)  The background was embossed using the Bats Slimline Embossing folder.  I added a circle die in the background for the moon and a large spider web in the corner. Some pearls and big purple bow were the finishing touches. 

Thank you for popping by today!

 

STAMPtember!

 Hello friends!

I am excited that today is the release of Whimsy Stamp's STAMPtember stamp set in collaboration with Simon Says Stamps! 

This stamp and die set are so fun!

I was so glad I had some crafty time and ended up making 3 cards. 

My first card used the Boo stamp and die. I used a jewelry tag for the sentiment and branches from the Bat Branch Die set.  They were colored with Copic markers.  I wanted some texture for the background, so I also used the Bats Galore Slimline folder.  

My second card uses these adorable ghosts with the Boo stamp and die set.  I added some tombstones from the Build a Graveyard die set.  Cobwebs from the Witch Broom set were stamped on the tombstones. I also added a circle for the moon. The background was inked with Distress inks.  

My last card I decided to make a fun shaker card! I used the Mitered Frame set and some acetate. This Boo was so cute with her little pink bow. ;) I added some pink sequin leaves and a sheer black ribbon. 

Be sure to check out Simon Says Stamp to get your exclusive set! 

It's been so much fun!

Howdy!

Howdy friends!

It is such a gorgeous weekend here in Chicago! My sister is spending the day with me and we are heading to a large craft fair near my home.  I am excited to spend some girl time with her and do one of my favorite things....shop!

Today I am sharing this adorable stamp set from Whimsy, called, Barnyard Friends.  This little cow is darling! I colored the image with Copic markers. I did some masking to place this little nugget in the bucket using the Barnyard Elements stamp set.   I added a sweet little tag, a flower from the Hibiscus die set, and some twine to the bucket.  For a finishing touch I added this wide striped ribbon. 

Enjoy your weekend friends!
