Special Guest - Rhea Weigand

It's Rhea with you today, and I am really excited to be a guest with Whimsy Stamps this month...like sooooooooo excited!  I love Whimsy Stamps. For my first project this month I chose to put together a shadow box with all kinds of Whimsy goodies.

I mean seriously,  How cute are these cows?  I would hug them.  This is a great clear set with 3 images and many great sentiments!  My favorite is you can make, "Love You HEIFER."  If my husband gave me a card with a cow and this sentiment I would absolutely die laughing!!!!!!  You see, I always call him my Bull in a china store.  Let's put it this way, we have 3 glasses left in the house to drink out of. lol. 

Everything you see here you can get from the Whimsy Stamps store.  Except I made the box to fit the die front.  Oh and this is not Whimsy paper.

The cows are colored with C0, 1, 3 on the body, and 7, 5, 3 in the dark areas.

Moon is W0, 1, 3 and I cut out a circle from Whimsy to trace the moon - didn't see that coming did you?

The sky is B91, 93, 95, 97, 99, V6, 5.  It doesn't show well in the photo, sorry. I will be back on the 25th for one more project!

Winter Wonderland Kinetics Card

Hi, Whimsy friends!  It's Andrea with you today sharing some winter cheer with a fun slider card featuring the new Winter Wonderland stamp.

I love snowmen, and the ones in the Winter Wonderland set are soooo cute!  I stamped this guy with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored him with Copics.  After trimming him out, I added highlights with a white gel pen and brushed clear sparkle over him.

For some inspiration for my background (I get tired of blue sometimes), I turned to Google and found a beautiful photo of a wintry landscape.  To recreate it I used the following Distress Inks: Mustard Seed, Worn Lipstick, Wilted Violet, Seedless Preserves, and Chipped Sapphire.  For the pond/river, I blended just the last three colors onto a separate piece of cardstock.  On the background I white heat-embossed a sentiment from Winter Wonderland.  

I die-cut the pond with the Kinetic Curved Hills Dies and die-cut the Mountain Majesty border die from white cardstock.  To create the slider, I die-cut the white hill with the Kinetic Cuved Basics Dies and cut the slider elements from white cardstock with the No-See Kinetic Straight Dies.  I assembled the pieces with foam tape and attached the slider to my background panel, which I adhered to a white card with ScorTape.  I flicked white paint over the entire card and also spritzed it with shimmer spray.

Have a wonderful day!

Hello again!

I'm back for a second post as a Guest Designer 

for Whimsy Stamps!!!!

I am using the stamp sets Candy Corn Dress Up, and Going Batty
I also used some dies, Kinetic Curved Basics, Kinetics Curved Hills, and
Stitched Cloud.

I had a lot of fun creating this interactive card using the Kinetic Curved Basics Dies.
I used Bristol Smooth Cardstock and distress oxide inks in the following shades:
wilted violet, evergreen bough, fossilized amber, and black soot. Then I added some splashes of water and splatters of white and gold paint.

I colored up Going Batty with Copic Markers in shades of
V12, W0, W1, W3, and B000.
For the moon I used a circle die and colored it with C0, C1, C2, C3, C7, and W5.
I heat embossed the sentiment and added some googly eyes to
the moon bat. I added clear stickles for shimmer.

For this next card I inked up the Stitched Cloud Dies with hickory smoke.
The colored fence with antique linen and vintage photo inks
and the field with mowed lawn.
I used tattered rose for the sky. I added some accents
with Copic Markers.

I colored up images from Going Batty and Candy Corn Dress Up with Copics:
YR04, YR07, Y11, Y15, Y17, G000, G02,
E23, E29, C1, C2, C5, V01, W1, W2.

I heat embossed the sentiments and added clear stickles for shimmer.

For this last card, I used Prismacolor pencils and Copics to shade in
Candy Corn Dress Up.

I colored the unicorn cutie with the following Copics: YR02, YR04, Y11, Y15, BG49, BG09
V01, and V05. I added Stickles for shimmer.

Thanks for stopping by for a peek!!!

Hope you enjoyed this post!!!

Hello there!

I am so excited to be a Guest Designer for 

Whimsy Stamps this month!!!!

I created two cards, and I used the stamp sets Candy Corn Dress Up and Going Batty. 

I also used some dies, Kinetic Curved Hills and Tombstone Tag.

And, of course a stencil, Sun Rays!

I started off by inking up some watercolor cardstock. 

For the night time sky I used distress oxide inks in shades 

tumbled glass, mermaid lagoon, and chipped sapphire. 

Than I placed the Sun Rays Stencil over the cardstock and 

brushed on some white ink. I added a few splashes of water.

For the field I used crushed olive, mowed lawn, and forest moss 

and added a few splashes of water and paint splatter.

  I die cut the field using Kinetic Curved Hills.

I die cut the tombstone with the Tombstone Tag Dies and
used hickory smoke and black soot to color it.

I wrote RIP with a gel pen.

I colored up the Candy Corn Dressup cuties with Copic Markers in these shades: 

W0, W1, W3, Y15, Y17, YR04, YR07

V12, V17, C1, C2, C5, C7

E25, and E29.

For the wood fence I used Wo, W2, W4, and W6.

I heat embossed the sentiments.

I added some shimmer using clear stickles.

For this next card I inked up the Sun Rays Stencil using wilted violet,

fossilized amber, and twisted citron.

Then splattered the same inks onto the background.

I colored the images from Going Batty with Copic Markers in the following shades:

V12, V17, Y13, Y17, YG21, YG25

BG11, E31, E33, W00, W1, W6

E70, E71, E74, E79, E93, W00, W1.

I used hickory smoke to create a base.

I added some clear stickles for shimmer and some sequins.

I hope you enjoyed this post!
