Welcome Back  to Another Day of  Whimsy Stamps January Release Creations.  My card for today showcases the  NEW Buffalo Plaid Background Stamp ,  NEW Thanks Word and Shadow die  set  and  NEW You're too Kind  clear stamps. I stamped the Buffalo Plaid Background stamp onto medium blue cardstock with Versafine Clair Paradise ink to create my background panel. I then die cut the word Thanks with the  NEW Thanks die  from the background panel as well as 3 times from heavy weight black cardstock.  I layered (and glued) all the thanks die cuts on top of each other ending with the blue thanks and set it aside.   Now I stamped the word thanks from the  You're too kind clear stamps  set above and below the cut out on the plaid background panel.  I used Versafine Clair Nocturne ink to stamp.

Hello All! I want to wish you a very Happy New Year and only the best for 2019! Welcome to my blog on this New Years Day. Let's kick-off our creative journey 2019 with the  Whimsy Stamps  January release!  You'll find all the new release products in the Whimsy store HERE ! And here is what I came up with for this first release of 2019, using the following new products: Wonky Windows 1 die , Kooky Monsters clear stamp set , Quick Strips die set I made a partial shaker card using the  Wonky Windows 1 die . Only two of the windows are shakers. To create the background to cut the window panel out of I started out with plain pink shimmer cardstock.

To add some texture I first added spritzers of water, let them dry and then sprinkled on black ink. The  Kooky Monster  was stamped with Memento Tuxedo black
