Life's a Beach!

Hello friends!
I have a summer time card to share with you today using Whimsy's new stamp set, Red Panda Beach. This little guy with his fancy cocktail and floaty, just cracks me up! The image was colored with Copics.  The "pool" was created from the new Ripples Die set.  I colored it with Copics to give it a watery look.  I kept the rest of the card fairly simple by just adding a bit of white ribbon and a flip flop sticker I found in my stash. 
I always appreciate your visits!
Thank you!

Florida

Hello friends! I have a new card on my blog today using Whimsy Stamp's new Florida Strong Die. I cut it twice with black paper and added several coats of glossy accents to the letters.  In person, it has a ton of dimension! I used the new Hibiscus Flowers to frame Florida.  I used water colors and gold glittery paper for the centers.  The background was a bit stark for me, so I used a stencil to give it a bit of interest and color. I added a few sequins and string to finish off the card. 

Have a great day friends! Thank you for stopping by!

Summer Fun!

Good morning! I have another card to share using Whimsy Stamp's Sweet Summer Fun Stamp set. I colored this adorable image with Copics and cut it out with a circle die.  I had an OLD sun die cut in my stash from probably the 90's! LOL but I liked how it looked behind my image.  
The yellow patterned paper is part of the 6 x 6 Starring Hearts paper pack.  I added a bit of two sided ribbon for an extra punch of color. 
Thank you for stopping by today!

Summer Vibes!

Hello everyone!
I have another summer shaped card using some new and previously released products from Whimsy Stamps. The stamp is part of the Sweet Summer Fun set.  I loved coloring this sentiment....those Popsicles....Bomb Pop vibes for sure!  I fussy cut it out.  I wanted to create a cold glass of lemonade, so I used the  Frosty Glass Die set.   I was trying to figure out how to "ground" my summer sentiment and decided I needed a lime slice in the corner. 
I used a circle die from the Haunted Graveyard Border set, and colored it with Copic Markers.  I added white gel pen details to make the lime more realistic.  I layered the lime, sentiment, a couple of flowers from my stash, and a bit of string. I tucked in a paper straw between the layers and a few clear droplets to finish off the card.
I hope you liked the card! :)

Whimsy Stamps New Release!

Hello friends!
Today is Whimsy Stamp's new release, and it has my mind thinking about summer! Warmer temps, outdoor activities, sunshine, and ice cream! I created this sweet treat with a rectangular piece of card stock and then used a corner rounder.  The drippy part of my ice cream is from the new Juicy Die set.  I gave it a generous coating of glossy accents and added sprinkles to the top.  The stamp and sentiment are from the Sweet Summer Stamp set. 
I added a bit of ribbon, string, and the sentiment was cut and shaped into a banner.  The popsicle stick was painted white and glued to the back.
Be sure to check out Whimsy Stamp's full release!
Thank you so much for stopping!

Waving Hello!

Happy Hump Day!
I just can't seem to get enough of this truck die and love this little otter laying on his back....and BAM! Inspiration struck! ;) I'll place this cutie in the bed of the truck with his inner tube! The inner tube was made using two circle punches, colored with Copics, given a coating of glossy accents, and white gel highlights to finish it off.  I used the Puddles Stencil to create the splashes around the truck.
This new release from Whimsy is so stinking cute!  Be sure to stop by to see it all!

Have a Fin-Tastic Day!

Hello Friends!
Just a quick post today!
I am finishing up summer school and VBS in the evenings at my church, so needless to say this week has been a busy one!
I created a shaped card using Whimsy Stamp's Mermaid Moments Stamp set and the Clam Shell Die set.   I added a small flower and leaves to the clam using the Grass Frames Die set. 
Tomorrow is Whimsy's new release, so be sure to check back!
Have a great day!

Mermaid Hello!


Hello!
My card today uses Whimsy Stamp's Fintastic set! The image was colored using Copic markers and then fussy cut.  I added glossy accents to the eyes and pearls to the mermaid's flower and top.  Stickles were added to the sand for a bit of sparkle. For the background I used the Scallop Circle Frame and the Stitched and Pierced Circle for the card base.  While the die was in place I placed the Mermaid Scales Stencil over it. I inked it in a soft blue and then removed the stencil and the die.  Leaving the die in place gives you a nice white border around the stencil. 
I added a few clear droplets from the Celestial collection as a finishing touch. 
Be sure to hop on over to Whimsy to see all of their fun new products! 




My picture for today! Right outside my back door! Have a wonderful day friends!

Enjoy Life!

Happy Friday!
Just a quick post today sharing a fun card using Whimsy Stamp's Gnomes at the Beach set.  My gal was colored with Copics.   I masked her off and used the Sun Rays Stencil behind her. The paper behind the image is from the 6 x 6 Rainbow paper pack. 
I can't seem to complete a card these days without some kind of heart. Why should this card be any different? LOL...so,  I used the Sparkletz Crystal Hearts to finish off my card. :)

I hope you are all doing well! This summer is flying by a bit too quickly for my taste.  I keep willing it to slow down just a bit. ;)
Have a great one!

You're Fintastic!


Good morning! 
I have a card to share today using Whimsy Stamp's Fintastic set. I colored this sweet gal using Copics and then fussy cutting her out.  For the background I used the Scribbles background stamp. It was stamped on a pale pink paper with Versamark and embossed in white.  I added white scallop circles to help "ground" my mermaid, so I used the new Scallop Circle Frames.  I adhered my gal using Crafty Foam Tape.  
I added a few clear droplets, my sentiment, and a scalloped edge using the  Slimline Wavy Edger Die. 
Be sure to stop by the Whimsy Stamp's store to see all of their latest product releases! 
Have a great day!
