Friendship Hop for Simonne


Hello and welcome to our Friendship hop! Today the Whimsy DT and some special guests have joined together to create a blog hop in honor of our friend and colleague, Simonne Clay! Simonne has been a member of the Whimsy family for many years and over that time has become a special friend to all of us.

We hope you will hop along with us today and visit each blog to see the creations made for Simonne along with personal messages from our DT. We might even have a special treat for some random hop participants too! So be sure to leave comments on all blogs for a chance to win one of our special Friendship Hop prizes!

Happy hopping and Simonne here's to you! 

Dreams of Paris

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

For this card I used the beautiful new 'Dreams of Paris' from Art by Mi Ran. I also used  Vines Die Set, and both are available now from Whimsy Stamps.


 
The image was stamped with Memento ink, and coloured with Copic markers. I then fussy-cut the image and adhered onto layered patterned papers. The papers are from Teresa Collins 'World Traveler' 6x6 pad.


I die-cut the Vines Die Set from black cardstock to suit my colour scheme, and added red and white flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts. I added a decorative metal brad to a satin bow, and finished with a swirl of rhinestones and a metal Eiffel tower charm.

Hope you like my card!
You can see more details on my Blog;  Embellished ExpresShan's.

Hope you have a wonderful week!

Dreams of Paris

Happy Monday Whimsy fans, and thanks so much for stopping by today! Ellie here today, sharing my newest Whimsy creation with you.

The main stamp I used today is from Whimsy's Mi Ran collection. It was just released earlier this month. I used some other stamps from Whimsy here as well, you can find the links below. 
I stamped the image onto copic xpress blending card an colored with copic markers. Then fussy cut. Designer paper is from my stash, but I used some Whimsy stamps to add to the print of the paper. 
 
Here is the Whimsy Stamps product list:
 Lavish Flourishes (this beautiful stamp set is on clearance) Life Defined
nested rectangle dies set (Whimsy Stamps)

I hope you liked today's card. 
Enjoy the rest of your week and since I (Ellie) won't be back here again until next year, I would like to wish everyone a 
very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
