Let It Snow

Hi Whimsy Stamps fans! Sylvia here with some winter cards I want to share with you!

First here's a card where I used the super sweet 'Served With Love' rubber stamp by Crissy Armstrong, a sentiment from the 'Winter Notables 1' rubber stamp set by Raindrop Echo Designs, 'Layered Snowflakes' Shapeology dies and 'Elegant Notables' Shapeology dies.

And here's another winter card using two rubber stamps from the 'Sleigh Ride' set by Raindrop Echo Designs.

I hope you feel inspired and if you made a winter card using Whimsy Stamps, just leave me a comment and I'll come visit you and take a look at what adorable work you've created! :-)

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

Christmas Tree in Words...



Today I wanted to share a simple idea using Rain Drop Echo's Christmas Tree in Words stamp. I cut out a simple tag shape and embossed the stamp in gold and added a few embellishments. I thought this would be a great way to decorate a simple gift full of gorgeous paper flowers most of which are available from Whimsy Stamps and the perfect gift for a crafter!
