Valentine Ice Cream Soda Card!

Happy Saturday!

Whimsy Stamps had their new release yesterday and this new set called, Frosty Glass Die is perfect to create a beer themed card, but also perfect for an ice cream soda! I die cut the glass portion with Copic friendly paper and created the glass using a B000 and B01.  The foam at the top was glitterfied with Glossy accents and glitter.  I added hearts from the Slimline Hearts Background die. They were colored with Copic and given a coating of glossy accents.  They were then adhered to the top, along with a fun paper straw!

The sentiment was actually from two sets, the Acts of Kindness and Lady Bugs. A bit of red twine and silk ribbon finished off the card. 
Be sure to check out Whimsy Stamp's full release!
Have a great weekend!

Been Tied Up!

Hello friends!I ADORE this new set by Whimsy Stamps called, Doggie Naughty.  They are so fun and dare I say, whimsical! ;) I colored this poor tied up pup with Copic Markers. I added a few flowers from the Fabulous Florals Confetti Mix. The image was matted with dark blue paper.  The striped paper is part of the 6 x 6 Fabulous Florals

Seriously? How cute is this pup?

Luck of the Irish!

Hello friends!
Happy weekend to you! Today is my son's 26th birthday and as a married man. So hard to believe I have children that old! LOL.  Today I have a St. Patrick's Day card to share.  Because really, aren't we all a little bit Irish on St. Patrick's Day? ;)  I used Whimsy Stamp's new Shenanigans Lassie Die set.  I cut her out using several pieces of cardstock.  Her skin was cut using a Copic friendly paper and colored.  I pieced her together and added a little bow and pearl to her belt.  I stamped the new Lucky Horseshoes on aqua paper.  I situated my Lassie to top and added a few Shamrocks.  (Also colored with Copics) 
 A few gold sequins were added for interest.  They are part of the Champagne Confetti Mix. 

If you haven't seen Whimsy's new release make sure you do! You will love everything!

Whimsy Stamp's New Release!

Hello Friends!
Today is February 1st and that means Whimsy Stamps has a new release!
This adorable set is called, Doggie Naughty.  The dog with the toilet paper reminds me our King Charles Cavalier, Myla. As a puppy, she was enamored with TP! She constantly was pulling it and playing with it.  It was cute, but a bit of a mess!
This naughty fella was colored with Copics.  I added a few black sequins and tiny paw prints from the Rainbow Bridge Confetti Mix. 

Be sure to pop by Whimsy Stamps! They have some adorable sets all ready for St. Patrick's Day!

Orange & Pink!

Good morning!
I am four weeks into my recovery and heading back to school on Monday. I am looking forward to seeing my students again, but a bit nervous about working all day.  I still get tired and sore after being on my feet for awhile.  But my doc thinks it's best to get back to "normal" as much as I can. 
So wish me luck!
This is version 3 of Whimsy's new set, Love and Unicorns.  
The image was colored with Copics and fussy cut.  I didn't have paper that seemed to go with her, so I created my own striped paper using Copics. 
I used a Stitched Circle die with black paper to help ground my image.  I stamped the sentiments using the new, Acts of Kindness stamp set.   The mane and tail have a light coating of Stickles for some added sparkle.  
Thank you for stopping today!

Valentine Unicorn!

Good morning! How do you like Whimsy's new set, Love and Unicorns?  You know I couldn't just make one card with this adorable set! So today I have another card.  I decided to go full on Valentine's Day colors, right down to the unicorn's mane.  She was colored with Copics and fussy cut.  I used the Mitered Frames Die. 
I added the sentiment, a small heart from my stash using the Slimline Hearts Background die, a few sequins, and the XOX from the Confetti Mix, Hugs and Kisses.  
If you haven't yet checked out Whimsy's new release, run over there now! You won't be disappointed!

Rainbows and Unicorns!

Howdy friends!
Today is Whimsy Stamp's new release day! The set I used today is called, Love and Unicorns. I think this world could use a little bit more of both! ;)I colored the image using Copics and fussy cut it. The background was done with water colors and water color paper.
Once the background was dry, I stamped the sentiment directly on the water color paper.  Unfortunately, I didn't wait until the ink was dry before adhering everything. As you can see I smeared some of the ink on the unicorn's leg. :(  The hearts are once again from the Slimline Hearts Background die. (Told you I have a problem!) I colored them with Copics and then added a coating of glossy accents to them.  Stickles was also added to the unicorn's mane. 
Thank you for stopping by today!
