Wonderful FaDoodle Friend

 

Today I have a cheerful card to share with you that's combining 3 different stamp sets. I just love how Whimsy Stamps products works so well together and complement one another.

I started out stamping the corners of the card with the FaDoodles Too checkerboard stamp and black ink. Isn't FaDoodles such a fun name?! This clear stamp set is by the amazingly talented (and my dear friend) Faye Wynn-Jones


Then I stamped the flowers from A Girls Best Friend, colored them with Copic markers and cut them out. I placed the flowers at the corners covering up the empty spaces and popped a couple up with foam tape.


I used the You're My Favorite stamp set for the sentiment and stamped that in black Versafine ink, then matted onto a black card base.

Whimsy has several sets like this that allow you to build your own sentiments with countless different combinations. They're great sets that go a long way for your card sentiment needs. 

Hope you have a WONDERFUL day!

Love You to the Moon and Back

Hmmm, Valentine's Day, Anniversary/Love, or Halloween card?


I started out with a navy blue card base and cut a Rectangle Shaker Maker die for the black frame. I also cut a black mound from the Grass and Cloud die. 


I made a pencil mark where I wanted to stamp the Howling Night wolf and stamped him with black Versafine ink.


I stamped the moon with white craft ink and sponged it in a little more ink to fill it in some.


 I cut the Evergreen Trees and sponged on some dark green ink on the left edges only then added a little touch of the white craft ink the the right edges only.


The sentiment was stamped with silver Delicata ink and popped up on foam tape.


I actually made this card at Halloween time but never posted it because I thought it could easily be a Valentine's Day card but what do you think...Halloween or Valentine?

Summer SPLASH to Warm Up Your Winter

Who's in need of some warming up after (or still during) the 2019 arctic blast winter storm?


Today I'm sharing two cards using the Splash clear stamp set. For both cards I heat embossed the waves with white embossing powder on watercolor paper. 


Then I used distress inks to watercolor them. On the "serenity" card I heat embossed the dolphin and the sun and added some dots of Glossy Accents around the dolphin.


The serenity die is retired from the Whimsy store but you could easily use another word die or one of the sentiments from the  Splash stamp set. If you're in the UK one of our retailers still carries the die set HERE.


For the other card I just used black Versafine ink for the dolphin, sun, birds, and sentiment.
Hope these two cards brought a little warmth into your day.

You're SNOW Sweet

 You're SNOW sweet but it's SNOW cold outside...better get Bundled UP!


Today I'm featuring one of the little bunnies in the Bundled Up clear stamp set, I did a post a few days ago using the other bunny in the set if you want to take a peek HERE.


I used the Bundled Up set for all my stamping on this card.  First I stamped the snowflake randomly for the background then added Simply White Nuvo drops to each of their centers.


Then I die cut out a Notched Square and stamped the bunny with Memento black ink and colored him with Copic markers (R83, RV34, C1, C3, W1). 

The sentiment was stamped with Versafine Clair Black ink (love this ink for sentiments).


I matted onto a pink card base and popped up the Notched Square with foam tape for added dimension. 
Hope you have a great day and are keeping your toesies cozy this winter.

That's Mr. Old Fart

BACK IN STOCK! If you like the Old Fart stamp set then you're going to love the new Old Geezer set that was just released this month from Whimsy Stamps. Both sets have funny (and true) sentiments that most of us can relate too or have relatives that they relate to.


To start off with I stamped the Old Geezer with Memento Black ink and colored him with Copic markers. I also added a little shadowing under his feet too.



Then I used the NEW Old Fart die and cut out the Old Fart words from black card stock and glued them into place. 


Then I used one of the NEW Quick Strips dies  (which I will be using on nearly every card now - lol) and cut that out of white card stock and stamped the sentiment. To finish the card I matted everything onto a black card base. 


Do you know any Old Farts or Old Geezers or maybe YOU are you the Old Fart/Geezer?
Check out this post and this post to see cards made with the Old Fart stamp set.

Hope you have a grand OLD GEEZER day :o)!

BRRR Get Bundled Up!

 Get Bundled Up peeps, the Arctic  blast is on it's way!


To start this card off I used the Stitched Cloud die and cut out 3 clouds from sticky note paper (post-it notes) and placed  them on white card stock. Then I sponged on some blue (faded jeans and tumbled glass) distress ink and splattered on plain water to create the sky. I removed the sticky notes then stamped the trees.  


I used a white gel pen and added some "snow" the the branches of the trees.


The snow hill is from the Stitched Border Trio die.


I stamped the little girl and the bunny from the Bundled Up set and colored them with Copic markers then hand cut them out.


I added foam tape to just the upper part of the little girls body and her feet are glued directly the the paper. I did the same with the bunny. Lastly I stamped the sentiment inside the small cloud which looks kind of like a word bubble to me but it wasn't planned that way ;).
STAY WARM!
