Season's Greetings

Happy Sunday Whimsy Fans and thanks so much for stopping by! 

I just wanted to share a couple of cards with you today that I made using some goodies from our November Release.


If you hopped along with us last month, then you might remember seeing these cards along the way.

For the card above I used the super cute stamp  "Christmas Hamster" from Whimsy's Wee Stamps collection. The snowflakes background paper was created by using the  snowflakes background stamp designed by Ann of Raindrop Echo for Whimsy Stamps. I think it turned out beautifully embossed with white embossing powder. My sentiment is from the set "Holiday Notables 2" and I used the  notables 2 die to cut it out. 

Papers are from my stash, I embellished with some ribbon, gold cord and punched branches (MS punch). 




The card above was made using the super adorable stamp Wee Berry also from Whimsy's Wee Stamps collection. Another must have for me!


The designer papers used here are from Whimsy's Michele R. designs Winter Blues paper pack. These are so beautiful and perfect for all kinds of Winter Projects, not just Christmas.

The border on the left side was done using the Snowflakes border die, the sentiment was layered onto one of the snowflakes from the  Layered snowflake die set.
I used a sentiment from the set  Snowflake mini letter seals


Hope you're having a wonderful and relaxing Sunday! And don't forget about our upcoming 
NEW RELEASE - TOMORROW!!

Hugs,
Ellie.

Wee with Berries, Very Cozy!


Happy December Whimsy fans!  Oh my goodness, there's only 17 days left till Christmas!  Where does the time go?  Tammy Louise here to share a make with some terrific Whimsy products including dies and this adorable Wee image called Berries!  


This project is pink and dainty with the beautiful Snowflake doily die layer!  The berries on a twig and vintage ribbon is a perfect match to the image!  Isn't this Wee image with her little kitty just adorable!  I decided after shading the image that the greys distracted from the light tones so I grabbed up the new snowflake background stamp from today's release and masking the image, stamped it and embossed with white powder.  Adding just the right contrast for the darker coloring!  Really love the pop effect!
More info or ingredients can be found at HandmadebyTLC.
Wee stamp " Berry"
Paper is Doodle Bug glitter paper and DCWV "Garden Tea Party"
Snowflake Doily Die  Shapeology by Whimsy
Snowflake Mini seal die  Shapeology by whimsy
Snowflake mini letter seals  Sentiment by Raindrop Echo Design
Snowflake background stamp by Raindrop Echo Design


 If you enjoy a good 3D project or just need a special box or bag, stop by the Whimsy Stamps Store available today for my Shape "EZ" product line of Cut templates like bags, boxes, flowers, and cards with tons of add on's! These templates can help you make any project just the way you like it. Over and Over again! The NEW Shape "EZ" cut files are available today!
