Happy Friday Friends! Yep I finally made it to post my second polar bear card this week :-) These cute polar bears from memory box are not only super adorable but can also be used for so many occasions besides Christmas and Winter! I used this cute 'Fredward Bear' to make a Valentines card.   I really like to cut my images out but don't do that very often because I hate cutting out by hand...lol. Another advantage with these stamps.... they are coming with matching dies! So no more hassle cutting the images out by hand...YAY. You can get the stamps and dies of these cute Polar bears from Dutch Paper Crafts HERE . But better hurry Darlene has only limited supplies on these!

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,
