Snow Road

Hi Everyone, it's Faye here today :)

I am prepared to admit Christmas is coming. I am also prepared to admit I made a Christmas card. Yes, I know, I should have warned you to sit down first, sorry. The newly released Snow Road is the kind of image that begs to be coloured immediately. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I've coloured this gorgeous stamp with copics and added a few extra scrumptious supplies from Whimsy too. I started by die cutting the image with Rounded Rectangle Dies. Can you spot the other items?

There, that should have helped. The sentiment is from the Christmas Ellie-Ments Stamp Set and I die cut that with Quick Strips. 

I stamped the Snow Flurry Background Stamp onto Vellum with white ink and embossed it, I love this effect. And finally, a few star gems from the Starry Sky Sparkletz Pack. Careful, these little packets of lovely are addictive! 

And that's it... time for a mince pie ;)

Butterfly advice...

Hello everyone,

I hope today is kind to you...

It's Sue here today and I have two cards to show you today made with a beautiful new release background stamp from our wonderful

Whimsy Stamps

To make this card I first blended Distress Inks over a piece of card.  I used my favourite colour palette of Shaded Lilac, Worn Lipstick, Evergreen Bough and Scattered Straw.  I sprinkled water over the design and dabbed it dry with papertowel

Then I stamped and heat embossed in white the 

Butterfly Background Rubber Cling Stamp by DoveArt Studios

I then layered the design onto a piece of white card and added a white ribbon.

I completed the design by die cutting the 

New Special Large Word Die 

and adding a sentiment from the 

You're Too Kind Clear Stamp Set which cut out with a  

Quick Strips Die

I used the same techniques to make my second card ...

I first blended Distress Inks over a piece of card.  I used a different colour palette of 

Wilted Violet, Cracked Pistachio, Faded Jeans

I sprinkled water over the design and dabbed it dry with papertowel

Then I stamped and heat embossed in silver the 

Butterfly Background Rubber Cling Stamp by DoveArt Studios

I then layered the design onto a piece of silver glitter card. 

I completed the design by die cutting the 

Thanks Word and Shadow Die Set

and adding a sentiment from the 

You're Too Kind Clear Stamp Set which cut out with a  

Quick Strips Die

Hydrangea Cluster

Happy Monday Whimsy Stamps friends, I hope you have had a 

good February so far, isn't it scary just how fast time goes 

this month has just rocketed by. 

I have Hydrangea Cluster from Jennifer Dove to share with you today

I coloured it with Zig Clean Colour watercolour pens 

i think i could use a little more practise with them 

but ima always afraid of over working the watercolour paper.

I have used Deb Davis's Dies for the sentiment and the new

Flourish stencil to decorate the corners.

Have a lovely March whimsy fans and i will see you then
