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! :)

 

Buckle Up! 8, Yes 8 Cards to Share Today!

Hello friends!

Don't faint, but I have 8 cards to share with you today!

My sweet MIL who passed this past July loved giraffes.  She collected them, and I inherited some of them.  When I saw this new Quick card set, Heartfelt Giraffes, from Whimsy Stamps, I knew each image had to be made into a card. 

The first two cards uses the Wavy Pierced Rectangle dies.  I used Tim Holtz's Metallic Jewels Kraft Cardstock.  I sanded the edges and then inked them up with brown ink.  I added some die cut hearts from the new Field of Flowers die set. Red Twine was added to each and a sentiment to finish off the cards. 

The next 5 cards use the Mix and Match Scallop Rectangle Dies.   I popped up some of the panels with Crafty Foam Tape, added a sentiment and a ribbon. 

The next four cards are similar to the one above, but I did incorporate more of the Tim Holtz Metallic Kraft paper.  I also changed the ribbon to twine and some coffee stained red ribbon. 

This last shaker card was so fun to make! I added a layer of the acetate behind the frame, added my shaker beads, a scattering of hearts and some coffee stained ribbon.  

One last look at all 8 cards!  I LOVE this set so much!!!

Thank you for stopping by!

Winter Friends!

Hello friends!

It's been a minute since my last post. I went back to school and it has thrown my whole schedule off! LOL.  I actually have been creating quite a bit, but am not on my computer as much lately.  So here I am with a fun wintery card to share!

 It is perfect timing with our frigid temps in the Chicago area. 

I used Whimsy Stamp's Winter Friend's set.  It is an adorable set! Just look at that snowman's face!

Everything was colored with Copics and then I ink blended the background.  The image was given a splattering of white paint. I used a large circle die to frame the image.  A bit of machine stitching and a vintage ribbon were the finishing touches. 

I WILL be back tomorrow with Whimsy's new release! Stay tuned!

Have a great day!
