Whimsy Stamps - Baby Giraffe

Howdy -

This is one seriously cute image from Whimsy Stamps and Sylvia Zet - This is Baby Giraffe... cute right? 

Totally cute .. I colored with my Copics (colors below) and decided to make most of the focus on the image itself. So I printed my digital image a little larger and had fun coloring. Then I had a bit of doodle feeling going on and instead of sewing on this one I doodled around the edges! A couple of die cut words for sentiment and done! Simple and Simple adorable!

Whimsy Stamps - Blossom

Howdy -

 And Happy Mothers Day! Today I am showing a card from Whimsy Stamps Digital from CC Designs! This is Blossom -

Cute right?? I colored her with Copics (colors below) and found a piece of paper from My Minds Eye. Love the red. A ribbon, a die cut Vine and dark red mulberry roses for embellishments. And then for those cute little words. They are all from the Whimsy Stamps set "You're Too Kind" I think all these little words are perfect for a "Mom" don't you? Hope my Mom likes it :0) -

Whimsy Stamps - Bird Swing

Howdy -

Happy Easter! 

Had some fun coloring some cute little birdies on a swing. This is Whimsy Stamps - "Bird Swing" by Sylvia Zet. Love playing with Whimsy Stamps Digital Stamps - instant versatile and easy storage!

Such a sweet image... now I started to go with light pastel colors, and then somehow I found a piece of paper from Paper Studios Petals and Blooms collection and those bright fun bold colors well I just had to go pink and black with this one! Fun right? I colored with Copics (colors below) and then cut out with a oval die cut and used an older Spellbinders mat. Layered up the papers with black card stock and pink card stock base, then sewed all the layers down with a zig zag stitch. Found a black and white gingham ribbon.. now it just didn't pop enough. So I colored it with my Copic - so it matched up to the bright pink and black! Love that!

For my sentiment I used the Whimsy Stamps Thanks Word and Shadow Die set.  I LOVE these dies sets! They really make a statement on your cards! They POP! A retired vine die for the leaves and then some mulberry roses cuz every vine needs some roses to match that paper and image!

I had so much fun with this one, just made me feel happy.

 I hope you have a wonderfully blessed Sunday - Enjoy your family and friends on this blessed day!

Whimsy Stamps - Aimee & Valentino

Howdy -

Loving playing with the new images from Whimsy Stamps Digital collection - especially all the new spring love images. And this new image "Aimee & Valentino" by CC Designs is just to cute!

Adorable couple of kids right? And one of my favorite things about working with the digital stamps is I can print them out with the Whimsy Stamps Digital Paper  "Hearts a Flutter" LOVE LOVE LOVE these papers and printing them out with the digital stamp is so fun and just perfect for making those cards special!

I colored the image with Copics (colors below) and then found a piece of paper studio wood paper with red and white card stock that all was sewn down. The sentiment "Heartfelt" is part of the Whimsy Stamps die set "Sympathy Heartfelt Condolences" The word sentiments that work so well on cards!

Whimsy Stamps - Angie

Howdy -

How adorable is this new image from Whimsy Stamps - from Sylvia Zet Wee Stamps, this is Angie. It is available as a Digital or Rubber stamp! Awesome!

 I colored with my Copics (colors below) and cut out with an oval Spellbinder Nestie. That cloud she is sitting on just really needed some puffy! So I used a Marvy Snow marker for that. Love that stuff! Then some Ranger stickles on the wings and stars. My pattern papers are from Authentique Cuddle Girl collection that I sewed down with a zig zag stitch. For some fun I added one of the Whimsy Chipboard Elements the Scribble Circle Stars Frame, that I colored with a yellow copic. For my sentiment I went with a retired die cut word Blessings.

Sweet images always make cute cards don't you think?

Whimsy Stamps - New Release!! Crateful of Kittens

Howdy - and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

New Release time at Whimsy Stamps! A Crissy Armstrong Digital "Crateful of Kittens" Love how adorable this image is!

 Seriously... doesn't this image make you swoon??? I colored with my Copics (colors below) and then inked the edges of the image with Rangers Distress ink. I found some older Tilda papers in my stash that have that fun spring look to them. A kraft card stock base with all the pattern papers sewn together. A bright pink dotted ribbon for a band around the middle. On the corners I used a retired Whimsy Stamps Doodled Doily Die. I like to think outside the box sometimes with dies... this is a circle shaped die that I cut to create the corners. Multi Use! Love that! For fun a couple of Whimsy Enamel Dots on the corners as well. Then for the sentiment I used one the Whimsy Chipboard Elements. I have gone nuts for these! This is the "Hello" Word Chipboard - love how it comes as two pieces I colored the shadow with a dark pink and the front piece a light green.

Whimsy Stamps - Christmas Mermaid

Howdy -

Now that Fall is here it is time to start preparing for Christmas right? And there are so many wonderful Christmas images at Whimsy Stamps to play with. And this image was really fun to play with as a Digital image. This is Christmas Mermaid by Crissy Armstrong...

I have been having so much fun playing with Digital images! And this Mermaid... well lets just say I tried a few oceans on her before I decided on this one! LOL I chose a free iamge and then placed her over it before printing. Printed it out then colored her with my Copics (colors below) I love how she becomes a part of the ocean! Her and her little swimming friends. Then they all had to have some Rangers Stickles added to their hats for some bling!

My pattern papers are scraps from long ago that I sewed together. I pulled out all my leaf dies and found a couple that looked like they could be under the water plants.  The green leaves are from Whimsy's Leaf Foliage 2 Die Set. And the purple is a retired die. For my sentiment at Merry Christmas -

I think she is fun.. and a great image for someone that loves a little under the sea adventures!

Here is my Copic colors used -

Howdy -

Anyone else feel like Celebrating Fall coming? ME ME ME! I am so ready for summer to be done and over! Ready for some fall weather and fun! Whimsy Stamps Digital Stamp "Penguin Fun in Fall"  by Crissy Armstrong is in the celebrating mood sure!

Do just love this cute little guy or what? I colored with my Copics (colors below) and then matched up with a million different papers and embellishments... Maybe it is just my mood from the insane crazy week ... but I think I needed a little CAS card. Just wish my house and everything else was clean and simple! I sewed down the image paper onto a sage green card stock and then placed on a light brown card stock base. The same brown card stock I used my Whimsy Stamp die "celebrate"

I do love my word dies!

She is just so pretty! I colored her with my copics (oops... forgot to take a photo of them sorry) and then cut her out with a Spellbinders Oval ... then I matted her sort of matted. I cut out the mat from a light green card stock with the Whimsy Stamps Oval Stitched Die Set... then that fun Pumpkin paper shows through just a bit around the image.

Whimsy Digital Stamps - Western Pony

Howdy -

Still playing with the Whimsy Digital Stamp Set "Western Pony" from the Crissy Armstrong Collection. Last week I showcased the Cowboy Hat from the set... this week I went straight to the Pony!

I printed the Digital Stamp along with the Whimsy Digital Paper from the Old Glory set. Perfect for a bit of western feel with all those stars!  Love this about the digital way of doing things. I can just print that paper as the background for a flat clean look! I colored with my Copics (colors below) then found some scraps from Carte Bella Cowboy Country paper pad that went perfectly with my stars western feel I was going for. I sewed the layers all together and placed on a kraft card stock base. Found an older sentiment that was a fun western font, sewed and matted it on my card. Three rhinestones for some bling on the bottom of the card. Cuz what is more western than a little bling?

Whimsy DIgital Stamps - KING LION

Howdy -

ROAR! today I have the King of the Jungle! KING LION by Crissy Armstrong and Whimsy Digital Stamps.

 Isn't he just the most regal thing? I have been lovin' playing techie and working with the digital stamps... I found a free jungle photo that I opened up in my Photoshop program. Then the King Lion went into the jungle! A flat image to work with! I colored the Lion with my Copics (colors below) and then topped his nose and crown with Nuvo clear for some shiny-ness! I dug through my piles of paper to find this yellow-orange coredinations card stock that I tore to shape around the image to size it up. Then I sewed down the image on the card stock with a zig zag stitch. A Black card stock base for my card. I then pulled out those fun and fabulous Whimsy Word Dies for some Birthday Wishes. I cut them out twice once with the black card stock and then again with the yellowish. I layered them up for a shadow look.

Hope my lion made you ROAR!
