Hello friends!
I am finally recovered from my cruise and the 7 hour time difference! Oh! and laundry.....soooo much laundry!
I have 3 cards to share with you today using products from Whimsy Stamp's new release. This adorable Bookworm is from the appropriately titled, Bookworm stamp set. I did a no line coloring with Copics and a bit of colored pencil. I stamped the sentiment from the new stamp set, Book Nerd, directly over the image in black ink. I added the image to this cute Book Die and added the stamping to the spine of the book. I wanted to add a bit of interest to the background without overwhelming it, so I used the Vintage Script background stamp in Tea Dy ink over a pale pink paper. Everything was layered and I tied a bit of twine with a vintage button to finish it off.
My second card uses the same products except instead of the script background, I used the Tweed Cover Plate die. I also added some leaves using vintage book paper and the Hibiscus Flower die set. I added a little posy flower.
My 3rd card uses these gorgeous papers from the new Enchanted Mushrooms paper pack. I cut out the portion of the paper I wanted using the Book Die and then stamped the sentiment directly over it with Versafine Ink and white embossing powder. The purple background paper was a water colored piece I had in my stash and I sanded the edges a bit. I ribbon was tied vertically to finish off the card.
I will have a few more cards soon using these sets! They are so much fun and slightly addictive. ;)
Have a wonderful day!
