Happy Birthday Deb! 🎂

We here at Whimsy Stamps are celebrating our Creative Director, Deb Davis’s birthday today! Happy Birthday Deb! Hope you are having a wonderful day with many, many more to come! 🎂

I created this scene card for Deb using several Whimsy products from recent and earlier releases. Please scroll down to find the link list below.

For the background I used the NEW Nightmares SL paper and my focal image is the Dracula image from the 'Dracula I Compel You' set. The sentiments are from the same set. 
I embellished the card using the mini jack-o lanterns from the NEW 'Pumpkin and Mini Jacks' die set cut from golden glitter cardstock. As well as some bats from the NEW Batty die set.

Grumpin Punkin!

Hello Friends! Another Whimsy Stamps Halloween release just hit the shelves a few days ago! Here is my inspiration using the NEW Grumpin Punkins stamp set.

I colored the pumpkins using alcohol markers and then fussy cut them. I combined the NEW Grumpin Punkins with the Connected Bubbles die and made one of the bubbles a shaker element.
The shaker bubble and filling for the shaker element is made using several products from This Calls for Confetti. The round shaker pouch from TCFC fits perfectly in the bubble from the Connected Bubbles die!
I decorated my card using bats from the Batty die set and small pumpkins from the Pumpkins and Mini Jacks die set (cut from glitter cardstock). 
I also added texture using cheese cloth pieces which I dyed with distress inks to fit my color scheme.

Lets Get Spooky in the Haunted House

Hello to all my Halloween Friends! Whimsy's newest Halloween release just hit the shelves and I have tow cards to share today.

On my first creation I combined the NEW Exquisite Lace, NEW Exquisite Beauty, NEW Home Sweet Haunted Home and NEW Harlequin stencil on a mixed media style card. These new stamps and stencil are just perfect for mixed media creations. In addition to the new products I also used earlier released dies: Treasure Map die set and Bookmark and Tags die set.

Here is a quick How-To:

I die cut the treasure map from kraft cardstock to use it as a background panel. I also die cut it 3 three times from thick cardstock and layered it to make it nice and sturdy. I then stamped the lace images onto the kraft treasure map panel, the smaller lace onto an extra piece of kraft cardstock. The moth was stamped onto purple cardstock and cut out. I distressed all pieces with tea dye and seedless preserves Distress Oxide Ink as well as white pigment ink. In addition to the lace on the treasure map panel I also added texture using the Harlequin stencil and Versamark Dazzle Frost ink and embossed with clear embossing powder. The sentiment was also stamped onto kraft cardstock and cut out with a tag die from the Bookmarks and Tags die set. I also added some black and white splatters. I used acrylic paint to do these. I assembled my card using liquid glue and foam dots/squares. For a finishing touch I added confetti and crystals from This Calls For Confetti.

My second card showcases the earlier released Bookeh 6x6 papers and NEW Home Sweet Haunted Home clear stamp set together with the NEW Pumpkin & Mini Jacks die set. These awesome papers together with these sentiment stamps and mini jacks dies make for a fast and spooky card.

Hugs & Kisses & Halloween Wishes

Hello Crafty Friends. I can't believe it's this time of the year already where we start with our Halloween creations @ Whimsy Stamps. Yesterday Whimsy released the first batch of its Halloween products. Of course over the next several weeks there will be more and we have sweet and also creepy Halloween products for you! So keep your eyes peeled for more Halloween fun to come!

My first Halloween creation for this season is on the cute side. I used the adorable Halloween Night stamp set illustrated by Crissy Armstrong. My friend Crissy draws the most adorable Halloween images.  I combined it with the New Nested Web die set and New Batty die set. The papers are from the also newly released Bookeh 6x6 paper pack. I made a shaker out of the web die and filled with the polymer clay Halloween Night mix from This Calls For Confetti. Links to all products used can be found below. I colored the cute images with my Stabilo 68 pens and a waterbrush.

Blimey Pirates!

Hello crafty friends! It's another Whimsy Stamps release today and it's all about Pirates! On my card I am showcasing both,  the NEW Blimey Pirates clear stamp set and matching NEW Blimey Pirates Outline Dies. They are both available now in the STORE. Please scroll down for all products links.

I used Distress Oxide inks, masking paper, blending brushes and a water spritzer to create my background. I stamped the images onto Strathmore Mixed Media paper with a hybrid ink. I colored with waterbased markers as well as alcohol markers. After die cutting the images with the matching outline dies I adhered them using foam tape. I stamped the sentiment with Versafine Clair Nocturne ink and added a few glossy black sequins from This Calls for Confetti.

Let's Go Team!

It's the first of August and that means it's time for a Whimsy release! I am showcasing several of the new products on my card! You'll find all the new products in the store HERE.

On my A2 sized card I used the NEW Pink Plaids 6x6 papers to create my background. I combined the NEW Cheerleaders die set with the NEW Let's Play Sports clear stamp set as my focal points. The extra  separate pom pom dies make it easy to customize your die cuts. I opted for white glitter paper to add some bling to my card. You could also customize them to match your favorite sports or school team. A few matching sequins from 'This Calls For Confetti' finish off my card.
