Whimsy Stamps - Sweet Kitty Birthday

Good Morning Everyone, 

Im running so behind at the moment, I mentioned in one of my recent videos that we had got a new puppy. Puppy is hard work! We love her to bits but man I don't know what's harder a new puppy or a new baby haha. I haven't been in the craft room in so long because a. Miss Belle and b. We are in lockdown, meaning for me I'm still going to work because I work in a Medical Centre and Home Schooling. 

This shit is real you guys! :-( My Husband and I have 5 kids between us - me 2 and him 3.. home schooling is so hard when still trying to juggle all my own stuff that needs to get done, we are still doing shared custody so I'm also doing all the running around with them back and forth. 


Anyway, playing catch up I was able to sit down tonight and put together this cute birthday card using Sweet Kitties Set from Whimsy Stamps. 


I used Digital Papers from the Dino Friends Paper Collection, the ones I have used were previously printed for another project, I try to keep all my leftovers to create other cards with. 


I began by printing the image onto X-Press It Blending Cardstock using my Laser Printer, this makes the image completely Copic safe.


I coloured the image up using Copic Markers and added in extra details using a white Uni-Ball Gel Pen in Angelic, I have linked up a few different pens for you. 


I love the softness of this image, the T Greys give it such a beautiful tone.


I trimmed the image down using a Lawn Fawn Stitched Square Die, finishing the image off with a nice border. 


I cut down some matting layers using American Crafts and Kaisercraft Cardstocks, trying to keep with the grey/pink colour blend. 


I adhered a doily down from my stash then the image over the top. 


Using an MFT Stamps Puffy Clouds die (I also linked up some similar dies from other brands), I used some leftover white X-Press It running it through my Sizzix Big Shot. I adhered those to the right of my card using Helmar Acid Free Liquid Adhesive. 


I hadn't adhered down my bottom matting layer yet so I used that to cut down some stars with my EK Success Star Confetti Punch, no wastage here :-)


I cut down a sentiment from Whimsy Stamps Everyday Sentiment Digital Sentiment Set, When I printed these originally I cut the sentiment set up so I was able to print multiple Happy Birthdays from this set as that is my most used sentiment from the set. 


I used more matting layers and stars and decorated the inside of my card. 


I love the way that my card turned out, it's exactly what I wanted it to look like.

Whimsy Stamps - Dolphin Time

Hi Everyone,

Today I am sharing with you a card I have created using a Digital Stamp from Whimsy Stamps, part of Crissy Armstrong's Designs, this is the Dolphin from Whale Of A Time - this stamp set is available as both a rubber and a Digital Stamp so I will have both of them linked up in the picture links below. 

 

I printed the image onto X-Press It Blending Cardstock, I added some details using a white gel pen then ran it through my Sizzix Big Shot using a Lawn Fawn Stitched Circle die. I have linked up a few different brands incase you can't track this one down. 


I printed papers from Ahoy There Digital Paper set, also from Whimsy Stamps. I just printed them onto Copy paper, I knew I would be adding a few layers so it didn't matter too much that it was such thin paper. I had some bits and pieces from other projects also left over so I have also used some of those.


I cut down a layer of Canson blue cardstock to use as my mat layer, then adhered that to a Couture Creations Card Base using Helmar Acid Free liquid adhesive, then adding the star fish patterned paper piece.


Using an old punch from Martha Stewart - this is the Cherish Edge Punch, I just grabbed some leftover white card from another project a punched a strip, I then used my trimmer to cut down the top part because I had already adhered the patterned paper and it needed something else to finish it off. 


I used a sentiment from Whimsy Stamps Everyday Banner Sentiment Digital Collection which I had previously printed for other projects. 


I'm super happy with the way the card turned out, simple but effective. 


I used more of the patterned papers to decorate the inside of the card.

Whimsy Stamps SOG Fairy Magic

Good Morning Everyone,

Today I am sharing with you all a card I have created for Whimsy Stamps using an image from Some Odd Girl Stamps. This is a Digital Image that I have printed onto X-Press It Blending Card. I have also used some papers from Whimsy Stamps Dino Friends Collection. 




I began by printing the image then fussy cutting her using my EK Success Cutterbee Scissors, these are my go to scissor for fussy cutting and I cannot talk them up enough. 


Once my image was trimmed out I began colouring using Copic Markers, you will see lots of step by step pics on my You Tube Video (the video and a full Copic list will be linked up below).



I grabbed a Couture Creations Card Base from my stash, cut down some layers of pink cardstock and used that to mat the layers of patterned paper I had printed from the Whimsy Stamps Dino Friends Digital Paper Collection


I used a star die to cut down some stars (from another brand however I will link up a few different ones, I also cut a heart from another brand also.



The Sentiments are both from Whimsy Stamps Digital Sentiment sets. I used the Big Wishes set and the Everyday Sentiments set.

Whimsy Stamps - Dragon Beach Fun

Hi Everybody, 


It is July 1st which means new release time over at Whimsy Stamps. Today I am using Dragon Beach Fun from Dustin Pike's Collection.



I created a sentiment using the Pages program on my MacBook, and printed that and the image onto an a4 sheet of X-Press It Blending Cardstock using my Brother laser printer.


Using Copic Markers I coloured the image up and went in with a white gel pen to add some extra details.


I ran the image through my Sizzix Big Shot using a Stitched Circle die from another brand, I will try and link up a few different ones in the picture links below.


I printed patterned papers from the Ahoy There digital paper set from Whimsy Stamps, I printed the papers onto Copy Paper, nothing special.


I matted them using Kraft Cardstock and White / Black Cardstocks from American Crafts.

I punched some stars from leftover black cardstock using EK success Star Confetti Punch and coated them using glitter glue


Using clouds from another brand to finish off my sky, then decided to add a sun, they are at the beach after all.. I used all leftovers to cut these. I added glitter glue to the sun to make it nice and shiny.



I used leftovers of the same patterned papers to decorate the inside of the card and finish it off.
