Whimsy Stamp's New Release


Hello friends! Today is Whimsy Stamp's new release day! I used a new stamp set called Hello Friend.  This little bunny was perfect for may egg shaped card.  (I used the Nested Pierced Egg Die set)
I cut the eggs out of white and pink cardstock.  On the pink cardstock I used an old retired Whimsy Stencil.  But really any smaller stencil pattern would work great as a background.  I used embossing paste and white embossing powder.  I popped the image up with Crafty Foam Tape.  I added a bit of white string and cute little pink pom pom.

Good luck

Hello friends!
I have a slimline card to share today using Whimsy's Rainbow Landscape stencil and the Terrific Slim Tickets Die. I love the ease of using the stencils and as you complete each layer, it's like magic! 
I just had to add a bit of chunky glitter to the stars and the clouds. Simple black and white twine finished off the card. 
Thanks for stopping by today!

Whimsy Stamp's New Release!

Hello friends!
I am off today and enjoying the 60 degree temps in the Chicago area.  A little spring cleaning always makes me feel like the winter blahs are over! 
I have a brand new card today to share using Whimsy Stamp's Ticket Coupon Elements and Terrific Slim Tickets Die.  I stamped everything in black on cream card stock.  I added pops of color with red, gray, and yellow Copic Markers.  The numbers are from the Candle Numbers stamp set.  My husband turns 58 in June, so I thought this would be a perfect masculine card with a vintage feel to it.  (Since he is so vintage himself! LOL) 
I have a large container of glass glitter but didn't want it to be too stark and "new" looking.  So mixed the glitter with a couple of drops of mushroom alcohol ink from Tim Holtz.  It gave it the perfect vintage shade! 
I love the look of coffee stains on cards so I took Distress ink and my water bottle.  I watered it down a bit and "inked" the bottom of my water bottle to give it a coffee stain effect.  I added a few splatters and a bit of grit paste to the edges.  
Be sure to check out Whimsy's full release! So many fun products!

St. Patrick's Day!

Hello friends!
I have two cards to share with you today using Whimsy Stamp's new Terrific Tickets St. Patrick's Day Stencil and dies! My first card I stenciled the image and went back with embossing paste and green glittery embossing powder.  I love that it gave it some sparkle and dimension.  I used the Terrific Tickets add on dies to cut out the image and matte it with dark green and gold.  I added a few clear gems, and coordinating ribbon. 
My second card uses all of the same products except no embossing paste or powder. :) 

Two quick easy cards perfect for the upcoming holiday! 

Have a wonderful start to your week!

Bear Love!

Hello friends!
I have two cards to share today using Whimsy Stamp's Bear Love stamp set. This set is so cute!The first card I colored the images with Copics and used the coordinating dies to cut them out.  I used the Terrific Tickets Add On die to create the background.  I adhered the images including a spot of grass from the Field of Flowers die set. A few extra hearts and twine were added to as finishing touches. 
My second card I colored and die cut everything out.  The background cut out using the Wonky Stitched Rectangles Die and clouds were added with the It's Cloudy stencil.   The Grass and butterflies were cut out using the Field of Butterflies Die set.  

Thank you for stopping by today!
Have a wonderful day!

Whimsy Stamp's New Release Day!

Well hello again!
I am excited to share Whimsy Stamp's new Planted Hearts Layering Stencils.  This set is so sweet and I used it here in two ways.  The first was to make a gift box.  I used the Mini Treat Box Die in a dark green card stock.  Edged the bottom using the grass and teeny flowers from the Field of Flowers Die set   For the sweet watering can I used various Tim Holtz inks and used the square from the Peekaboo Window Die.  
Inside the box, I made a pair of Shrinky Dink earrings.  I hadn't made them in a zillion years, so it took a couple of tries.  But my 3rd attempt came out pretty well.  I used Sharpie markers to fill in the stencil. I used a color pencil in spots to darken specific areas.  I added some dots around the flowers to fill it in a bit.  
Thank you for stopping by! I always appreciate your visits!

Happy Anniversary!

Hello friends!
Just a quick post today sharing Whimsy Stamp's new Field of Flowers  and Field of Butterflies die sets. I paired it with the adorable stamp set, Woodland Valentine. These cute little bunnies were colored with Copics. I used the dies to cut the grass (2 layers), flowers, clouds, and butterflies.  I stamped the sentiment directly onto the grass and added a few gems. 

 

Thanks so much for popping by! :)
