Burst of Colors

Hello All! Today I have a creation to show which uses the NEW Snowman and Friend image by Lee Holland.  This sweet image was colored using watercolors (Altenew water colors). I stamped onto Canson XL 140lbs watercolor paper with Versafine Clair Nocturne ink.. I almost always use the smoother backside of the paper to my stamping images on. The background panel on the left side was stamped with the NEW Cozy Blanket BG stamp and Seedless Preserves Distress Ink . The die cut trees are the NEW Snowy Trees Die Set . I've added Glitter Snow to the trees branches for an even more snowy effect. The sentiment is from the  You're My Jolly  sentiment set that was released last month. To embellish my card I used some Stickles Stardust Glitter Glue on the snow and added a button and two Sparkletz stars.  Here are the products I used:                                  ...

Hello and Happy Sunday!  What a gorgeous weekend here in Florida. Finally temperatures are down and it is a BEAUTIFUL fall day. Windows and doors open and cooler air is streaming in! I was waiting for that since April - lol. Don't get me wrong I love the Florida Summers but Fall and Winter in Florida are my most favorite seasons! I have a cute little card to share today. It's a CAS design using the gorgeous   NEW Bundled Up clear set by Deb Davis  - one of my favorite Whimsy Artists and fellow Floridian. How to create this card: 1. Cut card base from ultramarine blue heavy weight (110lbs/300gsm) cardstock - 11" x 4 1/4", top fold card. Cut white card panel - 4" x 5 1/4" - from heavy weight mixed media paper (I used Strathmore Mixed Media 140lbs / 300gsm) 2. Stamp images from the  Bundled Up  clear set using Memento Tuxedo black ink onto Copic friendly cardstock (I used Hammermill 100lb Digital Cover Stock) Color the images u...

Can you believe the holiday season is right around the corner? Jeeez where did the year go! My project today shows a set of three shaker tags created using the NEW Nutcracker clear set and the NEW Tombstone dies . The images were colored with Copics and then hand cut. The red, blue and gold papers I used are left overs I had from an older Paper Door kit. I cut out the tags from cardstock using the Tombstone dies. I also cut out tags from fun foam being used as spacers, two per tag and layered them on top of each other between the cardstock cut outs. Just to make sure there's enough room for the fillings to move around freely.  Here are the Whimsy products I used:                                                  Thanks for stopping by today!  Hugs,

Happy Saturday! I am back today with more Whimsy PaperDoor     Elf Sized   inspiration. This time I have a little pillow gift box to share. How-to: I used one of the kraft pillow boxes included with the  PaperDoor kit . Using VersaMark ink I stamped the little holly leaves all over the pillow box (leave the pillow box unassambled for stamping). This gives a nice watermark effect. Then I cut two strips of paper - 1 1/4" wide / 6 inch long - from green DP (also included with the kit) I punched out 3 different size circles using my paper punches (you can use circle dies as well, but for these simple circles I find my punches work very well and faster than if I would use dies). The largest and the smallest circle are cut out from red DP and the middle one is cut from kraft cardstock.  I stamped the candy cane image and the holly leave image onto white Copic friendly cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with my Copics ( G43, ...
