Tidings of Joy

Hello everyone!

Can we say ADORABLE??…it’s new release time again at Whimsy Stamps.  My inspiration today came from the super adorable Ellie’s Bauble rubber stamp.  I completely fell in love with this little sweetie!!

Tidings of Joy

As always, I stamped this little sweetie on X-Press It Blending Card and colored her with the following copic markers.

~Copics~
Grays:  W3/2/1/0/00/BV23
Pinks:  RV00/000/0000
Purples:  BV04/02/01/000/0000/RV000

Tidings of Joy1

I created a shaker element with the Pierced and Stitched Circle Die Set and lots of clear sparkly shaker bits from my stash.  I fussy cut out Ellie and attached her to the front of the completed element.  I die cut two leaf sets from the Peony Flower Die.  The one on the left side of the card was cut apart (right leaf only).  The set of two leaves was attached to the main card and the right leaf was attached on top of the shaker element before attaching the thread and flowers.

I heat embossed the Lots of Dots Background stamp to the white border at the bottom with white embossing powder.  It is hard to see in photographs, but it is really pretty in person.  I also added white flower soft to the fuzzy parts of her hat, and sparkly bling to the centers of the snowflakes.

The sentiment is from the Holiday Mini Sentiments clear stamp set.

Tidings of Joy2

I added the following flowers from I Am Roses:
R2-518 – Mini Variegated White – Soft Pink Paper Flowers
T1-2 – Soft Pink Mini Artificial Paper Crafts Rosebuds
R2-426 – Mini Mixed Rainbow Pastel color Paper Flowers
S10-15 – White Small Craft Paper Flowers
R2-15 – Mini White Paper Flowers
ZR4-2 – Soft Pink Small Arabian Jasmine

Pumpkin Kitty

Hello everyone!

Squeeeeee…it’s new release time again at Whimsy Stamps.  My inspiration today came from the Build-a-Pumpkin Die Set, the Falling Leaves Background stamp, and the Dracula Going Batty Die Set.

I had so much fun being a little creative with this die cut.  I tried my hand at a little cat face drawing and turned this pumpkin into a pumpkin kitty….I LOVE how it turned out!!

Pumpkin Kitty

I die cut this pumpkin shape on X-Press It Blending Card and colored it with the following Copic Markers.

Oranges:  E19/YR18/YR15/Y38/Y17/Y18/YR12

Nose:  W8/7/6/5
Stem:  E27/57/55/53/31, G94/YG03/YG01

Pumpkin Kitty2

I stamped the background with the Falling Leaves Background stamp.  I chose to keep it black and white as the pumpkin is pretty bright.  I added a little black and white stripe paper from My Favorite Things to the bottom, and a few bats from the Dracula Going Batty Die Set.

Pumpkin Kitty1

The sentiment was created with stamps from the Going Batty Stamp Set.  Once I had it stamped, I die cut it out with the Quick Strips Die Set.

I created this fun shaker card with the new Wonky Window 2 Die and the Messy Mesh Background Rubber Stamp.  I only used the center two windows for the actual shaker part, leaving the top and bottom portion for the image and sentiment.  The adorable little bat was attached to the card after it was finished.
