Unicorn Magic - Whimsy March 1st Mini Release

Hey Peeps! Can you believe it's March already? Where did the time go. It feels as if Christmas was just last week...jeeeez! Anyhow, it's March Mini Release time at Whimsy Stamps. Here is my first creation for this release using the utterly adorable Unicorn Magic stamps by Dustin Pike.

This is a one layer (even though that the image is cut out and adhered to the card front I see it as a one layer card) A2 size topfold card.  I colored the little fella with Dr Ph Martin Bombay Inks and Derwent Colorsoft pencils. Because I like to combine coloring mediums I often stamp my images onto Strathmore 400 Series Mixed Media paper. The doodlings are stamped using two different stamp sets from Whimsy. I listed them below in the product link list.

Whimsy Stamps New Release - Meme FYI

Hey Friends, guess what! It's release time at Whimsy Stamps again. Like every 10 days we're having a new mini-release in the store.  

Here is my card with some of the new stamps combined with previously released dies.

I started out by stamping the NEW WTF Background Stamp onto light blue cardstock with Versafine Clair Warm Breeze. I cut it to 5 1/4" x 4" and layered it on top of a white, topfold, portrait A2 size card base.

I then stamped the image and sentiment from the NEW Meme FYI onto white Hammermill 100lb cardstock. I fussy cut the image and die cut the sentiment with one of the Speech Bubbles die set. I decided to leave the image uncolored. I wanted it to match the sentiment and large word and make everything really stand out from the blue background. The Large Word and Shadow die UGH! was also cut out from white Hammermill 100lb cardstock. The UGH! shadow has been cut out from black cardstock. I also cut out another speechbubble from black cardstock to use as shadow behind the sentiment and to match the large word. 

I arranged everything on top of the background layer and adhered it with liquid glue and foam dots. To add some bling I used Stickles Stardust on the large word UGH!

Happy TGIF! If you're like me then cards like this one below should always be in your stash...LOL I'm so bad with remembering B-Days and sending cards out in time. So this NEW super cute beaver clear stamp set from Whimsy Stamps - Oh, Dam! - is perfect to create some belated birthday cards.

So, this super cute beaver clear stamp set is perfect to create some of these belated birthday cards. There are also matching outline dies available for this stamp set to make cutting out the images a breeze. 

I colored the images with Copics. To make them more pop from the background I added a kraft rectangle and adhered a layer, stamped with the Tree Ring Background and cut out with the Extreme Postage die set, on top.  The serntiment is included with the Oh, Dam! stamp set

Slimline Pocket Birthday Card

Hey Fellow Papercrafters! Today I have another slimline card to share using the NEW Slimline Scalloped Edge Pocket Die Set together with the previously released Slimline Pillows die, Slimline Vertical Sentiments and Bookmark and Tags die set.

I chose only two bold colors for my slimline card - black and lime green. I think they work perfectly together as are the NEW Slimline St. Patrick's Day papers which I used for my background. The pocket is created very easily with the Slimline Scalloped Edge Pocket Die and can also be used as gift card holder in addition to the tag I made. Decorating the pocket is easy with the included butterfly die. 

I cut the large tag from the Bookmark and Tags die set from vellum paper and stamped the sentiment from the Slimline Vertical Sentiments with Black Stazon Pigment Ink. A matching chiffon ribbon and some pearls added to the butterflies are finishing off my card.

Fairies and Gnomes - Whimsy Stamps February 10th Mini Release

Happy Wednesday and Welcome to another Whimsy Stamps Mini Release! 

This time I am visiting the magical world of fairies and gnomes and with the newly released Whimsy products its easy to create this magical fairy garden on my card.

To create my card I started out by making a horizontal top-fold slimline card which is 3.5 x 8.5 inches in size. I then chose one of the new Slimline Enchanted Forest Papers as my background. 

The frame on top is the Slimline Waves die, cut from white glitter paper. I then used the Build a Fairy Garden die set to create the scene. 

I die cut the mushrooms from mixed media and glitter paper and colored all non glittery parts with Copic markers. The little fairy was die cut from green glitter paper. I used the fairy dust die to create a stencil for applying matching green glitter. 

The cute gnome couple is from the Gnome One Like You clear stamp set as is the sentiment. The image was colored with Copics as well. Some die cut butterflies from vellum paper and green cardstock finish off my card.

Copic colors used:

Skin: E000, E00, E11, R21

Hair: YR30, YR31, E23

Beard/Mushroom: W1, W2, W4, W6, W8

Hats: RV93, RV95, RV99  BV31, BV34, BV25

Clothes E81, E84, E87, E89

Mushroom Caps: R32, R35, R37, R39

Lucky Ducky Challenge

Hello Crafty Friends! It's challenge time again. Together with my friends Alanna and Faye we challenged each other to create a card using the cute Lucky Ducky clear stamp set from Whimsy's most recent release.

Each of us is using a different coloring medium. It is so much fun to see what everyone creates. We did this before with the Wonky Donkey clear set and had such a fun time so we decided we want to do it again.
It was my turn to use Copics this time. Alanna is using pencils and Faye watercolors.
Please visit my friends blogs and see their awesome creations with this fun clear set. Alannas Lucky Ducky Card & Faye's Lucky Ducky Card.

Whimsy February 1st Release - Happy Springtime

Happy Monday and Welcome to Whimsy's February 1st Mini-Release. The card I am showing you today is made using the NEW Basket Rubber Cling Stamp together with the NEW Slimline Meadow Die Set, NEW Slimline Scalloped Edge Pocket Die set and previously released Honeycomb Drips Stencil. The sentiment is from the Easter Memories Clear Stamp set.

To create my scene I die cut various elements of the NEW Slimline Meadow Die Set from Montval watercolor paper. I then used my Graphitint pencils and paint to color them in. The background for my little scene was created using the NEW Basket Rubber Cling Stamp - which I also colored with my Graphitint pencils - and the Honeycomb Drips Stencil together with Cosmic Shimmer paste in polar white. The butterflies were covered with Distress Glaze to make them shine and stand out.

Hello Crafty Friends! I am here today to share another card made with the new Always and Forever clear stamp set by Deb Davis for Whimsy Stamps.  

Together with the NEW Always and Forever stamp set I used the following new and previously released products - NEW Baby Bear 6x6 papers, NEW Slimline Hearts Background die, Twinkle Scribble die. 

I like the starry paper as background and think it goes perfect with the image and design I had in mind. The Twinkle Scribble die is complementing the BG star design and makes the perfect frame for my image.  I colored the image with Faber Castell Albrecht Durer pencils. Cut out heart shapes from the Slimline Hearts Background were used as embellishments. The sentiment is included with the clear stamp set.
