Best Friend

Hello folks, I am back! I am terribly late sharing all my latest creations but life interfered big time. We had some major very unexpected repairs going on in and around the house in the last two weeks. So hopefully we are done now for a while replacing stuff and I am looking forward to a relaxing weekend with hopefully some beach time.

Without further ado here comes my first creation I made for Whimsy's latest release:

I inked a white cardstock panel that would fit my 8.5" x 3.5" slimline card using distress inks and blending brushes. I used spiced marmalade, worn lipstick and bundled sage. Then I stamped the floral background using the NEW Dainty Daisies Slimline Background Stamp with Versamark ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder.


I then cut out a white frame using the previously released Slimline Fancy Frame die set. I stamped one of the frames from the NEW Doodles Frame set onto vellum paper with Versafine Clair ink and embossed with black embossing powder. I then die cut the frame using the matching NEW Doodles Frame die set


I die cut the NEW Best Friend word die several times. 2 x from black cardstock and 4 x from white cardstock. I layered and glued (using a glue pen) them on top of each other starting with the two black layers and followed with the white layers on top. This gives a bit of a shadow effect and makes the letters stand out more from the background. I then assembled my card and added a few confetti sequins for decoration.

Sending Smiles Across The Miles

Hello There! Here is another card I made using products from Whimsy Stamps most recent release.

I stamped the Gerbera Daisies Background Stamp and Die Combo onto Hahnemühle Harmony hot pressed watercolor paper using Versafine Clair Nocturn ink. I colored the beautiful array of flowers using Derwent Inktense Blocks and Faber Castell Polychromos pencils.
 

I then cut out the Gerbera Dasies top edge with the included border die and cut it to fit onto my landscape A2 sized side-fold card. I adhered it using Scrapbook Adhesives foam squares and dots. I stamped the sentiment from the Simple Sentiment Strips clear set onto white cardstock and cut it out using the Simple Sentiment Strips die set. A few clear dew drops finish off my card.

Whimsy May 1st Release - All About Cake!

Hey Whimsy Friends!

There is a super duper new number and cake stamp and matching die set (sold separately) available in the Whimsy Stamps as part of the new release. I am in LOVE with the new stamps and dies 😍!

Here is a slimline card I created using the Make a Wish stamp and Make a Wish die set as well as the Eat Cake 6x6 papers. 

I colored the cake and numbers using Dr.Ph. Martins Concentrated Radiant Watercolors. 


I also added Stickles glitter glue to the pink cake layer. The sentiment is from the same set: Make a Wish and cut out using the Simple Sentiment Strips die set. 



To the balloon numbers I've added some 3D glaze for more dimension.

Then I used Whimsy's Bold ABC die set to cut out the word happy and foiled it using Scrapbook Adhesives 3D Foam Creative Embellishment kit. The word birthday was cut out using Whimsy's Birthday large word and shadow die and adhered using 3D Small Foam Circles as well as Adhesive Sheets.

Best Friend!

Happy Thursday! Another slimline card on my blog here today. This time it's all about our best friends 🐶. I love the NEW Slimline Dog Bone die set.
