Hello all! Have you heard? A Mini Issue of our Whimsy Inspirational Magazine was released today! With never seen before creations by the Whimsy Magazine Staff and 2011 Favorites picked by the Whimsy DT. If you haven't seen it yet click below or you can find the mini issue here: http://issuu.com/whimsystamps/docs/issue6-mini *************************************** My card for today was also published in an earlier Whimsy magazine. I think it was back in September and I used the cute Kenny K image called "Teen Idol" . As always I used Copics to color and if I remember right the DP is from Basic Grey. I did not add too many embellishments as for male cards I like it a little bit simpler and cleaner. The sentiment is from Ann's Fun Life Tic kets . I also decorated the inside on this one. Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to check out the new magazine! Luv 'n hugs,

Hello Everyone and Happy Tuesday! The card I like to show you today was published in Whimsy's Inspirtional Magazine Issue 4 . I used an older Whimsy image called Starry Night by Crissy Armstrong. Coloring was done using Copics. The sentiment is from the Stocking Sentiment Set and cut out with the matching Shapeology Stocking Die. I used the Whimsy Snowflake die and Spellbinders dies to cut out the snowflakes. Papers are from Bo Bunny. Brads, pearls, rhinestones, ribbon and lace are from my stash. For the snow I used MS coarse snow glitter. The card bas was cut out using a Spellbinders labels die.  Here are a couple more photos: Thanks for stopping by and come back tomorrow for some Whimsy Magazine news ;-) Luv 'n hugs,

Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday! This card was a special request. It's for a soccer fanatic and I had to use the team colors - black & yellow. Ahhh that was quite a challenge as this is not my fav color combo and soccer is so not my sport...LOL. But I'm quite pleased with the result :-) I hope my friend who ordered the card and the recipient will like it as well! The little soccer player is from The Greeting Farm, colored with Copics and the sentiment is from Whimsy's Birthday Letter seals.The charm was made using a sticker and lots of UTEE. All other embellies are from my stash.   I decorated the inside to match the outside. Thanks for visiting my blog and have a wonderful day! Luv 'n hugs
