It's Magic

Happy April, Dorinda here with you today on the Whimsy blog.

I'm sharing a little magic with you using:

Create Magic Clear Stamp Set

Notched Square Die Set

Kinetic Straight Waves Die Set

I've colored my little scene from Create Magic Clear Stamp Set with Copics and cut it out with Notched Square Die Set. I cut out a second same size piece from a lavender mirror board. I left the piece in the die and with an xacto knife cut out along the inner die to create a little frame.

Next I cut from the largest of the Notched Square Die Set, to give a large gap for my magic.

I took a sandwich size zip lock and filled it with dawn. I added some silver and gold stars, blue beads and purple glitter to create a sea of sparkle.

Lastly, I used the Kinetic Straight Waves Die Set star and made a few embellishments.

Edging the whole exterior in bling, and I'm done.

The above photo is of the project laying down to give a good view of the ingredients. 

 Below is the image standing 

Hope your day is magical.

Speckled Heart Bling!

Hiya, Bev here with a card featuring products from the latest release.  I fell in love with the Speckled Heart Stencil, and decided to go BLING using embossing ink and powder instead of paste.  I think I kinda got the bling down pat.

I started off by applying the ink pad direct to paper through the stencil, then sprinkled over the embossing powder and heat set.  I used a glittery EP and the sparkle IRL is fabulous!  Once I'd heat set it I die cut the layer using the Notched Squares Die set.

I made with some foamiran flowers using the Peony Flower Die Set, glitter card and vellum leaves and some clear acrylic drops.

I stamped and heat embossed the friend sentiment onto vellum and stuck this down (the bold lettering makes the perfect hiding spot for the glue.)

Thanks for stopping by

    

   

Angel Wishes

I sound like a broken record buuuuut, I really do adore the images by Marina Fedotova that Whimsy Stamps does.  Today’s card features Angel Wishes, you get a double dose of sweetness with this one.

I used the fabulous Notched Squares Die Set for the card shape.  They really add the wow factor to a square card.

   

I made a simple poinsettia from foamiran and the Lily Flower Die Set.  The little blue flowers are also foamiran, I used an old blossom punch for these and glued 4 layers together before filling the centres with a whole bunch of platinum coloured stamens (I painted the stamens to get the colour I wanted).  I die cut some platinum glitter holly leaves and white mistletoe leaves from the Christmas Branches die set and finished off with some distressed organza ribbon and some wee polystyrene snowballs.

I finished off with a sentiment from my all time favourite Christmas sentiment stamp set – Holiday Mini Sentiments.  They just have every sentiment I could ever need and in the most perfect size too.  I don’t often make blue cards but I love how this one turned out.
