2 Christmas Tales at the North Pole----Crissy Armstrong

Hello everyone! Cindy here today to share a card with you from Crissy Armstrong. I think these two are so darn cute!

 

I used the new stamp called "2 Christmas Tales at the North Pole"

 

 

 

 

I used my Copics to color it and added some Snow-Tex.  I did add some Stickles to the snow but it isn't showing in the picture. I used the "Large Merry word die" and heat embossed it.  I can't believe how quickly Christmas is approaching!!

 

Hope you have a fabulous weekend!!

Cindy 

 

 



Gifts for Grandma

Hi there, I’ve a Christmas card to share today using one of the stamps from the newest release -  Gifts for Grandma, which I’ve coloured up with copic markers, along with one of the Country Christmas sentiments and the new elegant snowflakes die set.

Thanks for stopping by.

Reindeer Magic

 

Hi Everyone, it's Faye here today :)

 Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Look at that nose! If ever I saw a nose that just needed to be glittered and shinyfied, it has to be this one. Look at that adorable little face. Don't you just want to scrunge him? OMG. This is Reindeer Magic, by Krista Heij-Barber, from the October Releases, which are in Store now. You've seen them, right?

Anyway, this is making me all festive. Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle All The Way...

 Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a great day.

Snow Hugs

Good morning Whimsy fans.  It's my turn (Shelby) to bring you a little bit of inspiration today.  I hope you were able to check out the fabulous new release.  If not, you can see all of the brand spankin' new products in the Whimsy Store under the new products tag

One of my fav new stamps (well all of them are my favs!) is Santa Stop Here from Krista Heij-Barber.  How cute are those darn penguins?

I colored the stamp with primarily Copics but tossed in some Chameleon for good measure.  The snow was created using UTEE...easy peasy for snow effects.

That's it for me today on this marvelous Thursday!  I hope everyone has a great finish to their week and an even better weekend.

A little Christmas Tail.....

Good Tuesday Morning Whimsy Stamps fans! 

and how are you all today? Its a beautiful chilly autumnal

day over here in Cornwall! 

The card i have to share with you lovely peeps

 today is from the October release and its called 

2 Tails @ the North Pole, its from artist and illustrator 

Crissy Armstrong Collection.

I coloured these cute little guys with Copics and i used some facecloth

and blender on the little bunny's hand muff. I had to add

some glitter thats a given. I had a go at an Igloo too.. there was this brilliant

Brick Wall background stamp released this month too, 

so I used a circular die drew a semicircle then masked 

off the semicircle and used the Brick wall stamp to create my Igloo. 

  so without further ado .....

Have a fabulous Tuesday my lovelies and i will see you around

blogland soon ....... take care 

Hugs Bridget :) xx

Woodland Christmas Tree

Happy Monday Whimsy Fans! Ellie her today, my turn to share something with you!

This card was made for our recent release last week.

The tree was stamped onto Bristol Vellum cardstock, colored with Faber Castell Polychromos pencils and then fussy cut. Please note, there are also some swirls around the tree, but I cut them off here, so it would fit my design. 

The sentiment was stamped onto a circle diecut, and I inked the edges using distress ink. Hill/snow were made using Whimsy's stitched border dies, and I placed the sentiment and tree behind the snow. I added some red and white twine and glitter to finish off the card. 

You can find the Whimsy products  here:

Holiday Cheer

Stitched Border trio die set

 

 

Thanks so much for stopping by. Enjoy your day and be sure to visit again here soon!

Penguins Carry the Tree

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

 

For this card I used the adorable new image from Crissy Armstrong called 'Penguins Carry the Tree' and also the new Elegant Snowflake Die Set. Oh my gosh aren't these little guys just too cute?! :) :)

 

My colouring medium of choice was Copic markers, and you can see the colours I used listed on my blog. I used some digital papers and I fussy cut around my image so I could use the papers as a background.

 

I added stickles to the snowflakes and also the ground for snow. I double mounted the little penguins, and finished the card with some pearls. 

 

I hope you like it! You can see more details on my Blog;  Embellished ExpresShan's.

Thanks so much for visiting today and hope you have a great week!
