Whimsy Stamps - Polar Fun

Hi Everyone,

Can you believe we are mid November already! Cannot believe how quick this year has gone.

I am still catching up on Christmas Cards, so many to make so little time. I must say I really enjoyed making this one for Whimsy Stamps though. This is Penguin Polar Express, from the November Digital Release, you can also purchase this stamp as a rubber stamp so I will have both of them linked up in the picture links below.


I printed the image out onto X-Press It Blending Cardstock using my Brother Laser Printer, I then coloured all the little critters up using Copic Markers which of course I will have listed below for you.



I wanted to cut the image out into a circle shape so I traced around the image using my circle die so I knew exactly where it was going to cut, the first die was going to be too small so I pulled out my Sizzix Circle dies which are a little bit larger in size and traced the one I thought fitted best. Once I worked out which bits of the image were going to be cut I carefully cut around those spots so I could slide the die underneath and not chop any off.  Once I ran the image through my Big Shot I erased all the pencil lines.


I pulled out my Kaisercraft Starry Night paper pad and used the embossed holly leaves and a leftover strip of the reindeer paper from another project and began putting my card together.

I also used a strip and a sentiment from the pop outs at the back of the paper pad.


Using American Crafts Christmas Cardstocks I cut some mat layers for my patterned papers on my Cutterpillar Pro.


I began adhering all the layers using Helmar Acid Free Liquid adhesive to a Couture Creations card base. I also cut the Christmas tree sentiment from one of the tag pages using my EK Success Scissors.
I used the leftover bits that I cut off to punch out some stars using my EK Success Star Confetti punch.


I added some details to the image using my white Uni-ball Signo gel pen, I will have a few different gel pens linked up below incase you can't find this one.


I added some Ranger Ink Gold Tinsel Embossing Powder to some of the stars using Ink On 3 Embossing Ink, I melted it using my Heat Tool.

I decorated the inside of the card to match the front of the card and I was done.


I hope you have enjoyed my post today, if you have any questions feel free to send me a message or contact me via facebook (all links can be found below).
