Whimsy Stamps and Therm O Web are teaming up once again for a fabulous week of inspiration and prizes! Be sure to visit both blogs all week long for some amazing ideas and to enter to win!
Here are the cards I created.
I began by using Rina K Design Glitz Glitter Gels from Thermoweb onto some matching colored cardstock from my stash. I used the Hello Yellow and the Screamin Green Glitz Glitter Gels on yellow and green cardstock - I then set them aside to dry.
I used Whimsy Stamps Shaker Maker Rectangles die set to create the white frame and inside piece, cutting it from a piece of white cardstock measuring 4" x 5.25".
I used Rina K Designs Electro Pop Ink in Blaring Blue, along with Whimsy Stamps Swish stencil, to create a wave effect on some blue cardstock from my stash. I also used the same Blaring Blue ink to create a cloud background, using the Whimsy Stamps Grass and Cloud Edger Dies to create a stencil.
I stamped the hippo and sentiment from the Hippo Beach Fun stamp set. I colored in the image with my Prismacolor pencils, added white gel pen detailing and fussy cut him out. I used Whimsy Stamps Quick Strips die to cut out the sentiment banner.
Once the glitter gel was dry, I used the Build-an-Island die set to cut out the palm tree and beach from the yellow and green glitter cardstocks and a piece of white cardstock. I colored in the tree trunk and pieced together the island. I added this behind the white frame. I popped up the hippo and frame on foam tape.
For my second card, I used Rina K Designs Neon Flock sheets in Hello Yellow. I started with stamping Whimsy Stamps Galaxy Galore background stamp in VersaMark Watermark ink onto some black cardstock. I then used Ranger's sticky embossing powder. Once heat set, this is a sticky print that allows you to adhere foil and flock to it - I ran it through my Gemini Jr to ensure it stuck properly. I love how it turned out!
I used Whimsy Stamps Film Strip die and cut it out of white cardstock. I adhered the galaxy background behind it.
I stamped out the images using Whimsy Stamps A Boy's Dream stamp set and colored them in with my Prismacolor pencils. I then fussy cut them out.
I stamped the sentiment from A Boy's Dream stamp set, using the Rina K Designs Electro Pop Ink in Blaring Blue, onto one of the windows that came out of the film strip die. I popped this panel up on foam tape and added some enamel dots from my stash. I added the film strip panel onto a white slimline card base and added all the images to finish it off.
Two super fun cards using products from Therm-o-web and Whimsy Stamps - a great combination.
