Snowflake Dancer

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone who may be celebrating today, and I hope you have an abundance of family and friends.

It's my turn (Shelby) to give you a little inspiration today.  

This sweet stamp is from Wee Stamps (Sylvia Zet) called Snowflake Dancer from the November release.   The sentiment is from Raindrop Echo Designs called Pine Cone sentiments.

Thanks for stopping by today, and I hope your Thanksgiving and/or day is wonderful.

Abby & Jade

Hi Everyone! It's Shannah here today to share some Whimsy Inspiration with you!

For this card I've used this adorable image called 'Abby & Jade' from Crissy Armstrong, and Winter Brackets' sentiments from Raindrop Echo Designs. Both are available at the Whimsy Stamps store.

The patterned paper is from the Authentique 'Joyous' 6 x 6 pad, and I inked the edges with Distress Ink 'Frayed Burlap'. The image is stamped in Memento 'Tuxedo' ink, and coloured with Copic markers. I stamped another image onto patterned paper and fussy cut the jackets of both 'Abby & Jade', and paper-pieced onto the main image.

 

I sponged around the image with Memento 'Summer Sky' ink, and added Fun Flock and Stickles for fur and snow. Flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts and a few pearls were the finishing touches.

 

You can see more details on my Blog;  Embellished ExpresShan's.

Hope you have a wonderful week!

Winter Coat

Today I have a card for you using one of the newly released stamps, Winter Coat by Time For Tea Designs. What an awesome stamp!

Have a wonderful crafty kind of day!!

Lullaby

Hello it's my turn today to show you a project and I have made a tea light box

I have used the super sweet stamp called

Lullaby for the front of my box

and coloured with distress inks

I have also used the new Pinecone sentiments which are perfect for this time of the year

and the matching die to go with them.

Inside the box there is 6 scented candles

Thank you for looking

Wee Lullaby

Have you seen the new Whimsy Stamps release?  OMW this little cutie Lullaby by Sylvia Zet is just the sweetest little girl.  Yup, I’m in love!

I  used copic markers to colour this one up, colours used are on my blog.

Clearly Whimsy Stamps DT inspiration

Happy Saturday everyone!

It's time for some gorgeous weekly inspiration from our Clearly Whimsy Stamps DT.

You will notice that the DT have all used the same color scheme for their cards this week.  That's because they are for our brand new CAS (clean & simple) challenge blog, ShowCASe Your Style.  We have a color challenge this fortnight, and we would love for you to join us.

Time to Sparkle

Hello Whimsy Fans! Ellie here today, my turn to share a creation with you! This is a very recent card I made. Hope you like it.

The stamp is brand new, just released last week. The sentiment is an older one, but it fit so well with my card design, that I just had to use it. Dies are also older, but favorites too! 

The "curtains" were simply made by cutting an oval diecut shape. I had to cut two ovals, because my paper was double sided, but if your paper is the same on both sides, you can just use one oval. 

This is how I usually decorate the insides of my card. Fairly simple, with minimal stamping and matching designer paper strip. I do like to leave lots of room for writing.

Whimsy Product list:

Snowflake Dancer, Girl Talk, snowflake background, winter brackets sentiments 

snowflake border die, layered snowflake dies

 

Thanks so much for stopping by the Whimsy blog today. Be sure to check back often for more Whimsy Inspiration!

Have a fabulous day,

 

DT Call announcement

Thank you all so very, very much for taking the time and effort to apply for a spot on our rubber stamp and die design team. We were blown away with the number of entries we received, and it is so wonderful to know how much you love our little company.  We know that it takes a lot of courage to enter a design team call, as of course not everyone can be chosen. If you weren’t chosen on this occasion, please do not be disheartened. Please know that we appreciated each and every application.

We were not only looking for excellent colorists, but for people with a crafting style that would complement the current team. Whimsy Stamps carries rubber stamps from a diverse range of artists, from the cute and whimsical, to the more quirky and trendy.  As we require our full-time designers to work with images from every artist, we were looking for crafters who we felt would be able to do that. So in addition to reading your application posts, we also took the time to look through every applicant’s blog, to get a more well rounded idea of each person’s crafting style.

It was a very hard decision because there were so many fantastic entries, but without further ado we would like to invite the following ladies to be full-time members of our rubber stamp and die design team for our next 6 month term (January 1st 2015 through June 30th 2015).

Congratulations and welcome to Whimsy!

Hippie Birthday!

Hello Whimsy Friends, Iris here! Today I want to show you a card I made a while back for a magazine publication. The stamp is called Hippie Birthday, Man by Crissy Armstrong.

As always the image was colored with Copics. Papers are from an older Basic Grey collection. The sentiment is from the Boy Talk Sentiments set and the stars are cut out using the Pierced Stacking Star Die.  Both are by SC Design. Flowers and all other embellishments are from my stash.

Thanks for visiting us here today and have a great start into the new week.
