Pot O' Green!

It's Tammy Louise here today Whimsy fans.  I sure hope you love the Shapeology line of dies available here at Whimsy Stamps as much as I do?  You too can make a Lucky 4 leaf clover card!  Back in December (Yep, last year) lol  The Clover die was released and I made this lovely little project with it!  I wanted to combine several different shades of green, focus on the die and sentiment and have loads of texture!  Hope you enjoy it and get some real inspiration!

A note to say hello with Wee's Peggy

Hi Whimsy fans!

This is the first time I get to place a card on this blog by myself. There have been cards done by me featured here but I have never done actual posting here. For my first post I wanted to show you a card that I created for one of the Dutch Whimsy Stamps retailers Krea Teja earlier this month.
Isn't Wee Stamps' Peggy adorable? She has  been colored with Copic Markers and 3D paper pieced, but you'll see that later on. The Whimsy Stamps products that I used are:

Now that's a lot of Whimsy on one card right :). If you want to find out about the other materials I used please visit my blog HERE.

A close up of Little Peggy, I hope you can see that she has been 3D paper pieced but if you don't see it:
These are the little pieces she was made with :). I hope you enjoyed my first real post on the Whimsy blog. Have a great day everybody!!

Hugs,
Mariska

Tilly’s Flower Cart

Good morning everyone and hope that you had a wonderful weekend. This is Michele here today and I’d like to share with you a card that I’ve made using one of the stamps/papers from the January release.
DSCF2304
For my card I’ve used the gorgeous "Tilly's Flower Cart" from the Little Cottage Cuties Collection illustrated by Elisabeth Bell for Whimsy Stamps and I’ve coloured her using promarkers, flexmarkers and aquamarker pens.
The DP is called ‘In The Garden’ which has been designed by me for Whimsy Stamps and I’ve distressed the edges and then inked them up using Brushed Corduroy.
In The Garden Front Sheet
The flowers are handmade and I’ve used one of the Whimsy Sentiments Collection Everyday Sliders 1 sentiment sets.
Thanks for stopping by today :0)

Happy Valentine's Day and Inspiration!!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!  I know you are all are done creating for Valentine's Day and on to spring cards but I wanted to created one more pink and red card to share.  It's not a Valentine's Day card per say, but the colors are reminiscent.  I love this cute little baby image from Wee Stamps called Birthday Baby Girl.

I colored her in my Copics and then paired her with some adorable paper from Echo Park.  The lace tape you see is from Whimsy along with the adorable corner die cuts.  The Happy Birthday sentiment is from 2 Cute Ink set called Happy Birthday to You

I hope you enjoyed this simple project today and were inspired to create your own project using Whimsy Stamps products!

A Very Vintage Valentine


With Valentine's Day almost upon us I thought I would share a card I made last year for Valentine's Day.
The stamps are Whimsy Stamps by Raindrop Echo Designs called Birthday Postage stamps sentiments and also Postage Stamp sentiments
Although the stamps are not Valentines they were so perfect for this card.  They are extremely versatile and I love how they look on this banner.
However you celebrate tomorrow, hope it is a good one!

Valentine's wishes....




Hi Lori here with a couple quick little Valentine's cards to share with you.   I used the new Love and Hugs Set from Whimsy.   It even comes with the cute sentiments! I coloured both images with copics and used some prismacolour pencils for the shading! 
The papers are American Craft - Love collection!
Hope you hop over and check out all the new stuff available from Whimsy Stamps!
Hugs and Love, Lori
