~ Whimsy Stamps - Happy Holly Daze ~

Hi, Friends!

Today I am sharing with you a tutorial using a new stamp set from Whimsy Stamps called Santa and Stockings.  I am featuring Santa and Rudolph on my card today.



~ Step by Step ~

Cut white cardstock at 5 1/2" x 11" and score at 5 1/2" to create card base.

Stamp image and color with Copic Markers (See color list below).  Add white gel pen to Santa and Rudolph's noses for a highlight.  Add glitter to the snow on the chimney using a glue pen.  Trim around image leaving an 1/8" white border.  Set aside.

Cut white cardstock to 5 1/4" x 5 1/4" and adhere to card base.  Cut white cardstock to 5 1/8" x 5 1/8", stamp Snow Flurry Background Stamp using Versamark Ink and emboss using Hologrpahic Embossing Powder.  Adhere to card.

Die cut white cardstock using the fourth largest die from the Notched Squares Die Set.  Die cut two pieces of white cardstock using the fourth largest circle die from the Pierced and Stitched Circles Die Set.  Adhere one circle to the middle of the notched square using repositionable adhesive for a mask.  Sponge Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean, Broken China, Dusty Concord, Chipped Sapphire and Black Soot Distress Inks around the circle die cut.  Remove circle and throw away if you got ink on it.  Lay Snow Dangle Stencil on top of notched square and use Purple Tape to hold into place.  Using a spatula, spread Nuvo Moonstone Glimmer Paste through the stencil.  Set aside to dry.  Add glitter to the second circle die cut using a glue pen.  Once glimmer paste is dry, adhere glittered circle die cut to notched square with the circle slightly overhanging over the bottom edge.  Trim off excess.  Adhere to card using foam tape.

Die cut white cardstock using the smallest triangle from the Shaker Maker Pennant Die Set.  Die cut the triangle again using the smallest triangle from the Shaker Maker Pennant Die Set to create the shaker window.  Add glitter to triangle using glue pen.  Adhere acetate to back of triangle.  Stamp out enough bricks of the chimney to fill in the inside of the triangle, trim out the bottom two layers of bricks and adhere to a scrap triangle piece of white cardstock.  Trim to fit triangle.  Color bricks with Copic Markers.  Add Diamond Dust on top of the bricks and adhere the triangle window using foam tape to create the shaker.  Adhere to card.

Adhere Santa and Rudolph to card using foam tape.

I hope you enjoyed my tutorial...Ho Ho Ho Happy Holly Daze!

~ Whimsy Stamps - Panda Ninja ~

Do you ever dream up a card design and think that's a great idea only to forget what it was before you could create it? This happens to me all the time.  So, when I dreamt up a super fun idea for a Panda Ninja card using Whimsy Stamp's Panda Butt Clear Stamp Set, I jumped out of bed to jot down the idea before I could forget it.  



Aren't these pandas just as cute as they can be?!  I cannot believe how this card turned out just the way I imagined it!  This is truly a proud momma moment for me!!!  



Now you can see why I am a stamper and not an illustrator...lol

~ Whimsy Stamps - Panda Wiggle ~

This panda is ready to wiggle his way right into your heart!  Have you ever had a stamp or stamp set that just got your creative juices flowing?  This Panda Butt Set from Whimsy Stamps is one of those stamps sets that did that for me.  I had so much fun creating with set!  You can see two of my other cards HERE and HERE.  It's always a good thing when you can create more than one type of card from just one stamp set!



Doesn't he look like he is just wiggling and waddling his way right past you?!  Squeeeee...I just love a cute panda butt!!!

~ La-La Land Crafts - All I Need ~



Happy Friday!

Team Friday's challenge for today is to use the new release.  La-La Land Craft's newest release is extremely elegant and full of inspirational mantras.  This mantra is my personal favorite!  


I created the glitter paper by covering a black piece of cardstock using Versamark Ink and embossing it with WOW's! Taffeta Pink Embossing Glitter.  Even though this embossing glitter is pink, it is translucent and takes on the color underneath.  In this case, it gives the illusion that the embossing glitter is an iridescent black.  You can see what this embossing glitter looks like when I used it on top of white HERE.  I stamped the sentiment with Versafine Onyx Black Ink before embossing it and colored the berries on the twig die cut with my 100 Black Copic Marker before embossing them.  I love being able to use my craft products in different ways to get different looks.  I think all these products used together make for a very elegant card.



This card was very hard to get a really good picture of how elegant and sparkly it truly is.  Even my daughter said "WOW!  That's gorgeous!"   Coming from her, that is a huge compliment!

Happy Friday Everyone!

Today's Team Friday challenge is to use background stamps and stencils using the new release.  This  release is full of delicate and beautiful doilies both in stencils and in dies.  The new background stamp gives off the coolest marble impression.  This card may be full of flamingo pink and glitter but it has a romantic serene feeling to it.  I actually can't stop staring at it, I think it is so incredibly beautiful!



To give the card dimension and texture, I spread Dreamweaver's Embossing Paste through the stencil using a palette knife and added WOW!'s Taffeta Pink Embossing Glitter to the paste.  Once the paste was dry, I heat set the embossing glitter until it was melted.  You can tell when it is done once it gets really sparkly.  I created the glitter strips by inking them with my Versamark Ink Pad and adding the embossing glitter and heat setting them.  The Taffeta Pink Embossing Glitter has a translucent quality to it so I did this twice on each strip to get the desired color I wanted.



The WOW! Taffeta Pink Embossing Glitter is the perfect color for this fabulous Flamingo!  Look how yummy, gorgeous and glittery it is...I love just love this perfect pairing of products!

~ Day Three of La-La Land Craft's April 2019 Showcase ~



Hi All!

I'm back again to share one more gorgeous image from La-La Land Craft's new April 2019 Showcase.  This image from the new I Can And I Will Clear Stamp Set is full of inspiring sentiments that we all need to remind not only ourselves but the one's we love.



I embossed the new background from the You Inspire Me Background Stamp Set in WOW!'s Metalline First Frost Embossing Powder.  This embossing powder is is absolutely beautiful and gives the background a heavenly look to it.  In the photo below you can see how awesome the new stencils look when they are dry embossed.



You ARE beautiful, don't let anyone tell you any different!!!

~ Day Two of La-La Land Craft's April 2019 Showcase ~


HI Friends!

I'm back today to share another beautiful image from La-La Land Craft's new April 2019 Showcase.  This angel from the new Sympathy Clear Stamp Set is incredibly ethereal.  Besides making an incredibly gorgeous sympathy card, she would make the perfect baptism, First Communion, confirmation and even a blessings for baby card.



This release is not only full of beautiful new images but awesome new dies and stencils.  I am totally in love with the new Mandala Doily Die!  I partially added it around the new oval dies to make it look like a crown.  It reminds me of a crown a little girl would wear on her First Communion or a crown a queen would wear.



I embossed the sympathy die cut with WOW!'s White Puff Twinkling Embossing Glitter.  It has the perfect amount of twinkle without overpowering the image and design of the card.  You can see the awesome texture the new stencils give when they are dry embossed.

~ Whimsy Stamps & Wow! Blog Hop ~



Hello Everyone and welcome to the Whimsy Stamps and WOW! Collaborative Blog Hop!  I am so honored to be working with two amazing companies and sharing with you the projects I have made.  Whimsy Stamps has so many wonderful products that work hand in hand with the WOW! product line!

For my first project, I made an elegant card using Whimsy's Flower Puffs Background Stamp and WOW!'s Metalline First Frost Embossing Powder on top of black cardstock.  This embossing powder is absolutely gorgeous and just jumps of the paper!  I also embossed the trim piece at the top of the card, the scalloped trim and the layer behind the sentiment to bring all the elements of the card together.  This is the perfect way to make sure all your elements match especially if you do not have the right color of cardstock.  I embossed the sentiment and the bottom sentiment layer in WOW!'s White Puff Twinkle Embossing Glitter.  This embossing glitter is super fun and not only gives just the right amount of sparkle but texture as well.  To give the card a little bit more texture and add another design element, I embossed the bottom white layer of cardstock with Whimsy's Farmhouse Basket Stencil using my die-cutting/embossing machine.  Adding a strip of rhinestones and some sequins, really brings this card to life!  This card would be perfect for so many different occasions!

For my second project, I used Whimsy's Farmhouse Greenery Stencil, white embossing paste and WOW!'s Under The Sea Embossing Glitter.  I first spread the embossing paste through the stencil onto white cardstock and added the embossing glitter.  Once the embossing paste was dry, I heat set the embossing glitter until it was melted.  You can tell when it is done when it turns from dull to sparkly.  I also used the same embossing glitter to make the glitter background paper, the trim and added it to the sentiment die cut using a Versamark Watermark Ink Pad instead of the embossing paste.  I once again used Whimsy's Farmhouse Basket Stencil to dry emboss the bottom layer of the card for an added design element.  The butterfly is embossed in WOW!'s White Puff Twinkle Embossing Glitter to bring in added sparkle and dimension.  The pearl strip adds an elegance to the card.

For my third project, I wanted to show you what WOW!'s Under The Sea Embossing Glitter looks like using the same Farmhouse Greenery Stencil but this time on top of black embossing paste.  Because this embossing glitter has a translucent quality, you can see the color from underneath come through which allows you to get a variety of different looks from just one embossing glitter.  How cool is that?!  I once again made the background paper using the Under The Sea Embossing Glitter and used it on the bottom sentiment layer.  The top scalloped trim, the middle sentiment layer and the butterflies were embossed with WOW!'s White Puff Twinkle Embossing Glitter.  I added black back into the card by using black cardstock for the trim and sentiment.  The black really warms the card up and ties all the design elements together.  I really love how using the same stencil and embossing powders and just changing the color of the embossing paste makes two totally different looking cards.
