Sending Huge Hugs

 Hi Folks! 

Lee Holland is a sponsor over at the Passionate Paper Creations and Friends Facebook page. There are so many adorable images to download and color, you can check them out here. 

I used the Dragon with Snail digital image to create this card. I coupled it with a Lee Holland background scene rubber stamp that you can also get from Crafters Companion. 

I first printed the image then masked it so that I could stamp the image over the top. My son has a giant Snail as a pet, so creating a giant Snail going about his business in the woods with a Dragon on his back is believable in our home!  I've coloured the image using Spectrum Noir Illustrators. 

The sentiment is also from a Lee Holland stamp set from Crafters Companion, which I heat embossed with WOW gold embossing powder. 

I've then mounted the image onto holographic card and matt and layered to create a simple framed card.

Thank you for popping over. 

Wishing you a great day.

Have an unfrogettable Christmas!

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Today is my last Christmas post of the year!

Hope you all have an unfrogettable day!

I've made a fun shaker card using a very cheery frog swinging from the Christmas lights.  Mum must be pulling her hair out this year, these kids keep getting all tangled up in the lights!!

From the Nuthouse!

Hey Crafty Friends!

Today I'd like to share one of my most favourite cards that I've made this year.

I've used the Nutcracker stamp set from Whimsy Stamps.

I've used this stamp set and mixed and matched it with several dies and I love the outcome.

I coloured the Slimline Hill house die in festive colours and matched the colours to the Nutcracker outfits.  The pathway has been left nice and clear but what doesn't show up very well in the picture, are the banks all covered in glittery snow!

Here's a list of everything I used to create this card.

The Nutcraker

Slimline Hill House

Slimline Cornered Rectangle Die

Thank you so much for looking. I hope you take some inspiration to your Whimsy makes.

Have a great day and Merry Christmas!

Today I am so very pleased to share with you my most recent Conie Fong creation.  I just adore her whimsical drawings and they are such a pleasure to colour up. 

Here is a link to here store so that you can go browse yourself Conie Fong Store 

I've coloured this image called Christmas Leilani using Spectrum Noir Illustrators. 

Skin tones: FS6, EB2, FS8, FS7,

Hair tones: EB2, GB6, GB4, GB2, TN1

Poinsettia : DR6, DR4, DR3, DR1

At the beginning of each year, I empty my scrap folders, so my current mission is to use up as many scrap pieces of paper and card as I can.  This changes my style to very simple layouts, but she looks good placed on embossed and foiled papers.

Thank you for popping over. 

I hope you have a great day.

Isn't Dudley the Dragon the cutest!

Here he is getting busy putting the festive lights up for mum. I'm not convinced he's doing it right, seems to be in a bit of a tangle.

Its finally December which means its Christmas!!!!!!

I have a really cute Whimsy winter card to share with you today using Cozy Winter Racoon which is available in the digital release today. He's all wrapped up warm taking his morning walk! 

Cozy Winter Racoon

I've coloured the image using Spectrum Noir Illustrators and fussy cut the image to add to a Silver Birch background and clear winter sky scene that I'd also drawn and coloured using SN markers. 

I've finished the card off by framing the scene and adding a few sentiments. 

Thank you for popping over. 

I hope you have a great day.
