Snow Couple's Season's Greetings

Happy Friday!  This is Jeanette  and I am here to share a simple festive card with you!

A quick and easy card to whip up if you need another card in a hurry! I used light blue card-stock to create an A2 sized card. I then lightly sponged the top portion of the card with some Blueprint Sketch Distress oxide to create a quick sky.  I used white card-stock and the Mountain Majesty Die Set as well as one of the dies in the Stitched Border Die Trio to create the background.

The sweet image is a digital image named Snow Couple.  I was able to size it to fit right into my little scene.  I colored it up with various copic markers before fussy cutting it out.

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today and I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a wonderful holiday season. I hope that you enjoy every minute of it!

Hugs Jeanette

Making Way For Santa

Good morning from Pam in South Carolina ~ It's my turn on the Whimsy Blog today ~ and I've selected Crissy Armstrong's Christmas Mermaid Digital image to make a Shaker Card with an  underwater scene for her.

Here's my completed project and the directions so hopefully you can make your own for the upcoming season. 

First I did several background choices, using a open bubble stamp with different shades of oxide inks stamped onto navy blue paper and sat those aside to dry.  I used an under the sea window die on a wave embossed paper and by using the DIGITAL image, it allowed me to size the Christmas Mermaid to fit exactly into the opening.    After printing the image, I hand drew in the scales,  Copic colored, and then fussy cut her out. To add a little extra bling, I covered her tail fin with silver sequins and added several clear flat back bubbles and the red starfish.  For the shaker addition I used light blue seed beads.  Once sandwiched all together and I finished the top by coloring the sea weed and adding the banner 'Make way for Santa'  Now Christmas Mermaid is ready for mailing or decorating my home. 

I hope you will check out all the products on Whimsy Stamps, especially the Digital Products.  

Thanks so much for visiting the Whimsy Blog today.   Your comments are always welcome.
May your day be Blessed ~ Pam 

Winter Wishes

I am getting a head start on my Christmas cards. Anyone else with me? 
The "Led By Love" digital stamp has been in my to colour pile for a little while now so I decided this is the perfect time to colour it up!

I coloured this fun stamp with alcohol markers and then hand fussy cut it. There were a few minor "accidents" with the fussy cutting but nothing a few strategically placed spots of glue couldn't fix <wink>. Next I printed my digital paper and placed my layers. I added some snow banks that I cut out of glitter paper and added an icicle border with the same paper. The scene itself is popped up with foam dots. 

The sentiment is from the clear Holiday Mini sentiments set - so many wonderful sentiments to choose from in this set!  Some ribbon and enamel dots finish off my card.
