Have an Esspresso-ly Great Day!

Hey Peeps! Today I have another card made with one of Whimsy's new clear sets from the April release. The set is called Espresso-ly Great. Perfect set for me as I am a huge coffee lover and it is so versatile you can make cards for anyone including masculine cards.



The background was made using the coffee beans image from the set. First I stamped the beans several times with Versamark ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder. I then sponged the background very ligtly with Distress tea dye ink. I actually did not use a sponge I used one of my Clarity brushes for that. It gives a softer effect. Then I stamped the beans with Distress tea dye ink between the white images. 
The cup image was stamped and fuzzy cut. I colored with Copics. I've added clear glaze to the coffee in the cup. The brown frame was die cut with the smaller rectangle from the ShakerMaker Rectangle die set. The sentimen is included with the clear set.

Please find below links to most products I've used available in the Whimsy store

Hello Spring Fairy

Hi Everybody! For quite a long time I haven't made a shabby chic style card. So it was real fun again to dive into my flowers, lace and ribbon for a change......and this is what I came up with:


I water colored NEW Spring Fairy with my distress inks. I opted for giving her white outlines for a change. I stamped with VersaMark ink onto Strathmore 400 Mixed Media paper and white heat embossed the image. See list of Distress inks used below.

The papers I used are digital papers from Whimsy Stamps Crissy Armstrong digital collection - Flourishing Blooms. I decorated the card with flowers lace and ribbon from my stash. The white die cut leaves are from Whimsy's Shapeology collection called Leaf Foliage 2 by Crissy Armstrong.
The sentiment is from the newly released 'Fly by' clear stamp set. Love this set. It's so versatile and can be used on all different style cards.

On the wings I used a lot of Wink of Stella clear shimmer. Unfortunately it is hard to capture in the photo. I also added Nuvo crystal clear glaze to the dots on the dress and wings for some extra shine.



Distress ink colors used:


Antique Linen
Scattered Straw
Tattered Rose
Tea Dye
Spun Sugar
Weathered Wood
Iced Spruce
Pumice Stone
Shaded Lilac
Mermaid Lagoon
Twisted Citron

See-Through Shaker Card -- Happy Birthday

Hello Friends! My creation today uses several products from Whimsy's March release. All Whimsy products I've used are listed below! 

I made a see-through shaker card today using the  'Fly by' clear set, Shiplap background stamp and the Shaker Maker Rectangle die set from the recent release. The word die 'Birthday' I've used is an oldie but goodie. 



The frame and background were created with distress inks and the Shiplap background stamp which I stamped with Versamark ink and white heat embossed. The shaker filling are different mixed sequins. The plane, clouds and happy sentiment are from the  'Fly by' set and I colored with Copics. The word birthday was die cut from black glitter paper. 

Here is a picture from another angle:
