Bunny Winter Holiday - Whimsy Stamps

 Hello everyone,

Sue here today!

Is n't the month flying away!  I swear time is speeding up - or perhaps I'm just getting old! /-:

Today's cards are a couple of cute one layer makes made with Whimsy Stamps

Bunny Winter Holiday Clear Stamps 

Assorted Sentiments Merry Christmas Clear Stamps

I stamped and then masked the bunny images and then applied a circular aperture mask before blending Distress Oxide Ink over my card.

I then removed the masks and coloured the Christmas Bunnies with Copics.

I stamped the Merry Christmas Sentiments in grey ink.

I then trimmed the card so that the circle was over to one corner of the design.  The finished cards measure about 8cm x 8cm so they are fairly small but VERY cute!

Whimsy Stamps - Penguin Winter Clear Stamps

 Hello everyone,

It's Sue here today!

I had the best time making todays card!  

It has all my favourite things!

...penguins, copics, inkiness, winter, snow and it's a Christmas card which are all my favourites!

I made the background by brayering Distress Oxide onto a piece of card.

The penguins are coloured with Copics (list of colours at the end of the post)

I layered the images onto vellum and fixed them to the background, finishing off with a sentiment.

such fun!...

I had a couple images left so I made some gift tags!

Whimsy Stamps Hourglass Die and Eye Scream Stamp Set

  Hello everyone...

OH MY WORD!  

I have been ridiculously over excited by today's project, I literally could.not.wait. to share it with you!

I thought a mask would be such fun to make and use if you are a trick or treater!

I blame the terrifying film 'The Masque of The Red Death' for giving me this idea! 

The Masque is made in black card die cut with the fa-boo-lousWhimsy Stamps 

Slimline Hourglass Die Set

which is available in store right now!

I cut the lens with an oval die from the 

Antique ATC Frames Die Set

The inky background is made with blended Distress Oxides, I'll pop a link to a tutorial at the end of this post for you.

I used a stamp from the spook-tacular

Eye Scream Clear Stamps Set 

which I coloured with Copic Markers - I'll pop  a list of the colours I used at the end of this post.

The eyes are attached to the mask with wobble springs!

Finally I painted a skewer with black paint and fixed it to the side of the masque with tape.

I think this design would work equally as well as a slimline card if you did nt want to make a masque!

Whimsy Stamps Flower Wishes...

 Happy Monday friends!

(There is such a thing - honest)!  (;

It's Sue here today to show you some products currently in store from Whimsy Stamps

Flower Wishes Clear Stamps

and 

You Are Word Die Set

I don't usually colour flowers, I find them difficult but I gave myself a prod and had a go at a no lines technique with Copic markers!  /-:

I also frightened myself by going quite CAS - I find leaving white space difficult!

Overall though I was pretty chuffed with how this card turned out!

I coloured the white card die cut with Wink of Stella clear pen, it looks lovely and shimmery in real life but the camera has nt picked it up!

...and honestly!!! - you are going to NEED the

Flower Wishes Clear Stamps

and 

You Are Word Die Set

in your life - they are soooo versatile and usable!

I'll pop a list of the Copic colours I used at the end of this post for you!
