Burst of Colors

Hello friends, welcome to my blog today. Here is a card I made with the NEW VooDoo clear stamp set from Whimsy Stamps . What an adorable set. I stamped with Versafine clair Nocturne ink onto Canson 140lb watercolor paper. I colored the little voodoo doll with FB Albrecht Durer watercolor pencils and a waterbrush. The base is a pink A2 size card from heavy 110lb cardstock. The designer papers are also from Whimsy - 6x6 pattern paper Starring Hearts. I embellished my card using a button, enamel dot, thin rolled paper strip and pink staples. Here is a link list of all Whimsy products used: (I am part of Whimsy Stamps Affiliated Program.

Hello folks! Wishing you all a very happy and healthy 2020! Let's kick start the new year with our first new Whimsy Stamps release for 2020. This release is AHH-MA-ZING! But see for yourself. HERE in the store you'll find all the new goodies.  I am showcasing a new flower set today illustrated by Crissy Armstrong   and it's part of the Whimsy Stamps Crissy Armstrong collection . They are called Layered Peruvian Lilies . This set is very versatile. You can layer the flowers, stamp them with different colored inks to receive beautiful images quickly without coloring. Or you can use just the outline images of the flowers and color them with your favorite medium. I used the latter method. Because I wanted a bucnh of flowers coming out of one corner of my card I used the masking technique to create this cluster of   Peruvian Lilies . I used only the outline stamps from the flower blossoms and leaves and stamped them on a A2 size watercolor panel with

Hey Friends Happy New Year's Eve! Welcome to my blog today and to my last post for this year! It's the time of the year where a lot of us dealing with the sniffles, coughing or if it's worse even the flu! So why not sending some love and making someones miserable time a little bit more bearable? Here is a get well card using the 'Get Well' clear stamp set by Dustin Pike from Whimsy's December release. I colored the adorable image using  Karin Brushmarker Pro  pens. There's also a little January release sneak peek on this card. You might want to be paying attention to the background ;-) I used the stencil, Distress ink (tumbled glass) and a blender brush to create the BG.  To add some accents I used FaDoodles in two of the corners. Some sequins and jewels finish off my card. Please make sure to come back tomorrow where I will have a new release creation up here on my blog to kick off the new year. The new release is STUNNING and

Hello Crafty Friends,   are you all ready for Christmas? Just one more day. To shorten the waiting time a bit I want to share one more card with you. On this card I used several different coloring media as well as a combination of several  Whimsy stamps . Coloring media I used:  Karin Brushmarker Pro ,  Copics, colored pencils and watercolor pencils as well as some white acrylic paint.  I stamped the images (  Very Mice Christmas ,  Mason Jar ,  Christmas Postcard ) using the masking technique onto Strathmore white mixed media paper with a hybrid ink.
