Hello friends!
Whimsy Stamps has a new release that includes Robots! So much fun!! I colored them using Copics and a few details with black colored pencil and a white gel pen. I framed the images using the new Peekaboo Window Die.    I added a few stars and a bit of white string to finish off my card.  :)

Whimsy Stamps New Release!

Hello!
It is Whimsy Stamp's new release, and this one is all about birthdays! I LOVE this new Happy Birthday Coverplate Die!  I cut it out of white and black card stock.  I layered them a bit off center to give it a bit of dimension.  Behind it I adhered strips of card stock to printer paper for a fun backdrop! I used the tiny stamps from the new Koala Birthday Stamp set.   The images were colored with Copics, fussy cut, and Stickles applied.  

I popped them up using 3D Foam Squares. 
Pop over to Whimsy Stamps to see the full release!

Thank You for Your Service, Whimsy Stamp's New Release!

Hello friends!
My husband and I just got back from Arizona. We got to see all of the bucket list items while there, Grand Canyon, Antelope Cavern, Horseshoe Bend, numerous hikes etc. My son and his wife took their honeymoon in Disney at the same time we were gone. While there he was selected as veteran of the day while there.  He was part of the flag folding and color guard ceremony.  He was touched and extremely proud, and so was this mama. 
So Whimsy Stamps had great timing with their newest stamps and dies celebrating our military.  As a DT member, it touches my heart that they created these sets. I used the new Sheroes Die set.  It was intended for a female military person, but I knew I wanted to save these cards for my son.  The edges of the circles have crackle paste on them and once dry I rubbed some brown distress crayon in the cracks.  The paper is part of the new Military Slimline Paper Pack.  I did a bit of machine stitching on the edges and distressed them. A few stars and twine finish off the card. 
Sheroes Die and the Slimline Military Paper Pack was used again here.  I layered some vintage tags that were splattered and distressed. I added a red poppy and burlap. 
And here is my son graduating from the Nuclear Program in South Carolina.  So proud of this kid of mine!
Be sure to stop by Whimsy to see the full release!
Thank you for making me part of your day!

Embracing Vintage

Hello friends!
I have fallen back in love with vintage once again.  I used Whimsy Stamp's Gerbera Daisies stamp and colored it with Copic Markers.  I splattered it with a bit of white and black acrylic paint.  I added some silk ribbon and twine directly to the flowers.    
I don't know if you can see the background well, but I used the Brick Pattern Stencil in a light blue. I also stamped the Vintage Script Background stamp in random places. I rubbed a bit of Tim Holtz's Foundry Wax to the edges and heat set them. 
Thank you for stopping by for a visit! :)

Same Die, Different Look

Good morning friends! 

I have another card using the Coneflower Frame Die from Whimsy Stamps.  Last card was soft and vintage.  This card I decided to go bold.  The card uses several colors of card stock.  I added some details with Copic Markers.  When the card was pieced together, I gave it a splatter of white acrylic paint.  

I decided to add a sentiment to this card.  It is from the Doggie Naughty set.    I added some bright ribbon with a vintage button.  Stickles were added to the flowers for a bit of sparkle. 
Thank you for stopping by today!

Whimsy Stamps New Release


Hello!
It's that time of the month again for Whimsy Stamp's new release. I know I say this every release, but this one is absolutely awesome! This card was created using the new Coneflower Frame Die. I cut it from water color paper and used my Zig Clean Color Water Color Markers.  The frame was given a coating of crackle paste and rubbed with brown ink.  A bit of sewing machine stitching and some tulle finished the card off.  
Pop on by the Whimsy Stamp's store to see the full release!
