Clean and Simple Inspiration

Hi everyone and happy Thursday :-)

Sylvia here with some CAS inspiration for you!

We all know Whimsy Stamps has the cutest and whimsical image stamps ever and most of you dress up their cards with lots of flowers, doilies, charms and other embellishments and I see you using lots and lots of layers. Always so very intricate and adorable!

But I am a more 'simple' card maker and just wanted to show you that you definitely can use the Whimsy Stamps in a 'clean and simple' way, too :-)

First, here's a card where I used the adorable 'Giraffes in Love' designed by Crissy Armstrong together with the 'Friendship Noteables 2' sentiment set by Raindrop Echo Designs and the matching 'Noteables 2 Die' - all from the new December release.

I just cut out the giraffes and put them on dimensional foam adhesive. Added a little bit of sewing and a bit of bling ... that's it! See.. really simple :-)
Second here's a super simple card where I did not use any images but only a sentiment stamp from the 'Friendship Noteables 2' set - I so adore all of the sentiment stamps by Raindrop Echo Designs!

To create this card, I used my leftover patterned paper scraps from a card I did the day before.
And I think, the beautiful sentiment stamp is just the perfect finishing touch for this super quick and easy card.
Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you liked my CAS cards with Whimsy Stamps :-)

Hugs and Kisses and Warm Winter Wishes!!

Hi there, Stephanne here today,
I hope everyone's enjoyed their holidays so far!!!
Gettin' ready for a New Year's Celebration, are ya???

Well, I have MADE a moment to come down in my craft room and create

For all the details, please hop by my blog!!
Happy New Year!!!
Stephanne

Wee Bunny....



Wow can you believe it's already Christmas Eve. Where has the year gone?
I'm so happy to be able to share a Christmas card with you that was featured in Whimsy Stamps Inspiration Magazine. I have used this adorable Wee Stamp Christmas Bunny and Raindrop Echo Designs holiday notables sentiment.
On behalf of everyone at Whimsy Stamps we'd like to wish you and yours a Very Merry Christmas and wonderful Holiday Season!

Christmas Easel Box

Greetings Dear Whimsy Fans, Iris here! Are you all ready for Christmas, all gifts wrapped and the cookies baked? Only a few more days to go! And before I go on my Christmas break I like to show you a christmassy easel box I made using Kenny K's 'Mistletoe' stamp.

I attached an easel card on top of a handmade box. This is pretty nice for smaller gifts as its a gift box and card in one. The image was colored using Copics. The pretty flowers are from Whimsy and Wild Orchid Crafts. The snowflake charm and ribbon is also from Whimy's Paper Crafting Embellishments. 
The letter seal is from Raindrop Echo Desings Winter Letter Seals available HERE. I also used the ornament and stocking dies you'll find in the Shapeology section.

Here's a closer look on the image and the inside of the card:



Thanks for stopping by today! 
I wish you all Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! See you all next year!

Hugs 'n Luv,
Iris
