Burst of Colors

Hello Everyone and Happy Sunday! I know it's Sunday not Friday....but nevertheless here is my creation using some of this weeks featured products. See all deets over on the Whimsy Blog . I did not feel like coloring this time and thought of a way to showcase the stamps otherwise. I opted for embossing on pink cardstock for my main image. Everything else are just die cuts - except the sentiment of course. For the rainbow I used glitter cardstock. Here is a link list of all Whimsy products used on my card:                               Thanks for stopping by! Hugs,

H appy First of May!  Whimsy Stamps is having another super cute mini release today. Have you been to the store already? I'll be showcasing one of the adorable Hippos from the Hippo Beach Fun  clear stamp set by Dustin Pike. I started out by stamping the image onto Strathmore Bristol Smooth paper with Versafine Onyx black ink. Then I watercolored the image with ZIG clean color brush markers and cut it out. My cardbase is a A2 size cut from white 110lb cardstock. Base layer is blue shimmering cardstock. To create the wavy background I used Distress Oxide inks (peacock feathers, salty ocean and tumbled glass), the Making Waves stencil and a blending brush on white cardstock. To finish off my card I've added a Connected Rectangle Frame cut out from white cardstock, a sentiment (from the set) and a few sequins. Here is a link list of all Whimsy products used on my cards:                      Hugs,

I hope everyone is doing well out there and staying healthy! It's a gray and rainy day here on Florida's Space  Coast  today. So I thought I have to post something bright and uplifting.  I made this card using the gorgeous Fabulous Florals 6x6 paper pad from this month's release. The sentiment is from the Sympathy Life Goes On clear sentiment set. The words Hope and Friend that were used in the background are from the Butterflies clear stamp set. This beautiful paper and a sentiment make a quick CAS style card. I also have another Cute Cacti card to share. As well a fairly quick card using papers from the Festive Desert paper pad, a sentiment from the Cute Cacti set and a  Festive Edger die on the black layer. It is almost time for another NEW Mini Release from Whimsy . Just a few hours away (available tonight at midnight!). There will be some SUPER cute products waiting for you in the store tomorrow....here is a little glimpse
