Vintage Easter Whimsy Stamp's Style

Good morning friends!
I have 4 cards to share today using Whimsy Stamp's new Vintage Easter Quick Card Fronts.  The images are so beautiful! Each card was made the same way, just with different color card stock.  Each one was cut out using the new  Spring Rectangles Die.  I used Gold Foundry Wax (Tim Holtz) for the edges and heat set it with an embossing gun. The center panel was popped up with Crafty Foam Tape.  I added some machine stitching along the perimeter and Stickles to the flower centers.  Just a few extra touches and these cards are done!




Thank you for visiting!
Have a great day!

Primitive Blessing Card

Hello friends!
I have a quick post today.  (Is there any other kind lately with me?) My card uses the Primitive Quick Card fronts from Whimsy Stamps.  The images are so colorful and fun! I made it a bit more vintage by tearing the edges, machine stitching and adhering bits of lace behind the tears.  I added a bit of gingham ribbon, some old buttons, and attached it to a black card. 
Thank you for continuing to visit here.  I know lately my posts are sporadic. :)

Whimsy's New Release!

Hello friends!
Happy Labor Day for those of you in the USA!
Today is Whimsy Stamp's new release....and it is a fantastic one!
These new Quick Card Fronts, Grunge Ghosts, are absolutely over the top cool! I used scissors to distress the edges and added machine stitching. Lace peeks out from underneath. I framed out my ghost with the new Keyhole and Keys die set.  I added grit paste to the keys and key hole.  Once it was dry, I rubbed some gold Foundry Wax on top.  I used my heat gun to set it.  I stamped the sentiments, cut them into strips, and sprayed some Mica stains over the top. 
I tied everything together with twine and stained Mummy Cloth.  
Aren't those keys perfect? ;)
Be sure to pop by Whimsy Stamps to see the entire release!
Have a wonderful day!

Vintage Joy!

Hello!
I have a quick post today sharing a card I created using new papers and dies from Whimsy Stamps.  I used the Joy Word Die with red card stock and stamped it with small snowflakes. I added some texture paste and glitter to give it a snowy look.  The papers are from the new 6 x 6 Chilling Christmas paper pack.   I used the larger holly leaves from the Holly Frame Die to frame my word. They were water colored and I added some glass glitter to their edges. 
Thank you so much for stopping by!

Merry Christmouse

Hello!
I have another card using the new Quick Card Fronts, Matchbox Mice.  I am not usually a fan of these critters in real life, but here, they are so sweet! I used some texture paste on the edges to give it a snowy effect.  I used the holly and the frame from the Holly Frame Die set.  Some ribbon and string finished off the card.  
Thank you for stopping by!

Christmas in July!

Hello friends!  It is hard to believe that this week is 4th of July already! Summer needs to slow down a bit! Because before you know it, it WILL be Christmas! So here's to Christmas in July. ;)
You already know how much I adore these Quick Card Fronts by Whimsy Stamps, and this one, Matchbox Mice, is no exception. These sweet little faces....
I cut the panel into three pieces, distressed them with ink and scissors.  Added a strip of red cardstock and placed the image on top.  I did some sewing, added white paint splatters, and used the holly leaves from the Holly Frame Die set.   I tied a little red jingle bell with a metal holly leaf to finish off the card. 
Thank you for stopping by today friends!

Vintage Bears

Hello!
I have two vintage inspired cards to share today using Whimsy Stamp's null new,  Quick Card Fronts-Take Care Bear.  As expected, these images are so sweet and vibrant! I distressed the edges with scissors and a sanding block.  I splattered a bit of black ink and used my trusty sewing machine to do some random, circular stitching.  I wanted the images to stay soft, so the paper behind it was done in soft watercolors.  I added ribbon, and flowers from my stash to finish off the cards.  
Pop by  Whimsy to see the full release! 
Have a great weekend!

Vintage Charm

Hello!
I have a new card to share that incorporates some vintage vibes.  It uses Whimsy Stamp's new Country Charm 6 x 6 papers.  I used scissors to tatter all of the edges, did some machine stitching, and added crackle paste to the edges.  I stamped a sentiment from the Southern Sugar stamp set.  I added some lace to peek out from under the paper and tied a bit of raffia with twine and lace. 
Thank you for popping by!

Vintage Love....

Hello friends!
I finally got to meet me new granddaughter.  It was so bitter sweet leaving her back in Georgia. She is perfect in every way.  
*Sigh* 


I have a card today using several new products from Whimsy Stamps.  I used the Fashion Dress Form Die set.   I added black tulle to create the skirt, a small flower embellishment, and a bit of black string.  The back ground was done using the Postmarks Background stamp. It was stamped in a light pink and die cut using the Inverted Scallops Rectangle die and the Stitched Oval Die. 
Thank you for popping by!

Whimsy Stamp's New Release!

Hello!
Today is Whimsy Stamp's new release day!  I probably sound like a broken record, but I really do love these Quick Card fronts.  They make creating a card so quick and easy! These Paris images are gorgeous.  I did some machine stitching and created a double layer using the Mix and Match Scallop Rectangle dies.   I added some pink tulle and cut the sentiments into strips.  Hanging them vertically is a nice change of pace.  ;)




Check out Whimsy Stamp's entire release! So many fun products!

Whimsy Stamp's New Release!

Hello friends! Happy Labor Day weekend to you!
I can not believe it is September already....time sure does fly!
Whimsy Stamp's has released some awesome Halloween stamps and dies this month.  I used several new products on this vintage, shabby, Halloween card. I used the stamp set, Exquisite Beauty for the butterfly wings.  It is a rubber stamp and it stamps so crisp and clear! For the body I used the Forever Cameos die.   The frame is from the Forever Cameos Frames die.   I grunged it up a bit with Grit paste and Crackle paste.  I used a Tim Holtz Distress Crayon in black and brown to get the cracks and such.  The background of the card is old book paper.  I used the Brick Pattern Stencil over it using Crackle Paste.  Once it was dry I swiped black and brown Distress Crayon over. it.  
I added lace, a bit of mummy wrap around the frame, a small posy, and vintage stick pins for the antennae.  This was such a fun card to make. :)

Have a great weekend!
