Elephant with Flower

Happy weekend Whimsy fans! And thanks so much for stopping by here today!
  Ellie here, sharing one of my new Whimsy stamps creations with you. Hope you like it :-)

I absolutely love this cute Elephant from Whimsy's February release. He's been colored with Faber Castell polychromos pencils, blended with baby oil, and then fussy cut. The chalkboard sentiment is from an older sentiment set by Whimsy - Mini Chalkboard Greetings. I thought it would go well with the image and papers I used. Designer paper is from Hobby Lobby.

Below are a couple closeups.

 Enjoy your weekend!!
Until next time,


Sweetie

Hello Whimsy Friends, hope you all are having a great Thursday. Iris here today with some  Whimsy - Wee Stamps inspiration for you.

This is Sweetie ... that fits her pretty well, don't you think?! :-)  

I colored her using Kuretake/ZIG Clean Color Real Brush Pens and Gansai Tambi, traditional Japanese watercolors. I love these. They are very opaque, bright and have an almost buttery consistency. Quite different from normal watercolors. 

The image was stamped with Versafine Onyx Black onto Fabriano Artistico Extra White, hot pressed, 100% cotton, watercolor paper. 

I also added some shabby white embossing enamel around the image and on the mat frame. The sentiment is from Clearly Whimsys "Into The Woods" set.


Thanks for visiting,




Honey - Little Spring Helper

Hi everyone, I can't believe it's the first of March already, can you? This year seems to be whizzing by.
I have a new card to share with you today.

This is Honey - Little Spring Helper from  Whimsy Stamps' February release. She's from Elisabeth Bell's Cottage Cuties collection. Isn't she adorable?

I decided to go with yellow and brown and I had some left over papers from an MME stack which were perfect.  I coloured her with my Distress Ink markers to coordinate.

That's all from me today, but I'll be with you again soon :) xx
