whimsy Stamps Seymour


Ah! Little Shop of Horrors! Such a classic!
I've created this tongue in cheek card using @whimsystamps clear stamps. We do Halloween and Horrors so well don't we 🎃👻



* Feed Me Clear Stamps



* Autumn Hues Paper Pack



* Wonky Stitched Rectangle Die

I've taken the same design papers of every colourway from the pack and cut 2cm strips. I've then adhered these strips to a piece of cardstock in random order and used the Wonky Rectangle Die to cut through and create a new design paper.


I've then stamped one of the images from the Feed me stamp set, coloured it in using markers and fussy cut. I've then popped the image onto white card stock with foam pads for a bit of dimension.

Happy Boo-Day!


Hi Folks!

Here today with a Cutie Happy Boo-Day card.  I just love the characters created by Dustin Pike for Whimsy stamps.  This card features the Gargoyle and Friends clear stamp set. I don't think he's doing the 'scary thing' to well!

Harvest Time


Autumn has arrived, literally overnight! Temperatures are dropping, nights are drawing in and the main noticeable thing in our home are the great big huge spiders! Bigger than our cats, I swear! Even our dog runs away.  We caught such a big spider last week, my youngest son insisted it start paying rent. That made me roar with laughter.

I've made this harvest time card with a bit of a barn theme in mind.  I've used the chicken coop die and decorated it using the web and spiders die set and autumnal hues papers.  The barn is the perfect place to store the pumpkin, apples and pears for harvest.  They certainly look happy to be there.

Thanks for popping over.  Love Lu xx

Whimsy Stamps - What's lurking!


Hey Crafty Friends!

Today's creation is a tank full of fish and maybe a sea monster too! 

The tank has been created using some of the best Whimsy Stamps under the sea stencils (obviously in my opinion),  stamps and Dies not to mention the fabulous ATC Book Die Set. 

Just take a little look at the inside.  I'm so excited about this. 

Here's the list of goodies you might already have in your stash to recreate this or a similar project.  


Ocean Stencil -  heat embossed with clear embossing powder directly to a Paper pad sheet


ATC Book Die Set -  assembled,  however using one of the frame die sets to die cut a window.


Fadoodle Frames Scalloped Rectangle Die Set -  this is the set I used to create the window.  I also cut 2 frames using the largest dies to mount on the back and front.  Doing this meant that the tank could free stand.

Octopi Guy -  here's your sea monster lurking amongst the dark ocean and hiding behind the coral reef.


Build an Ocean Die Set -  providing the colour and homes to the little fishes. 

You'll find acetate really useful to create the dimensions for the coral reef and to stick any embellishments to that you want to have floating.

Lots of Love

Whimsy Stamps - Fish Fancy


Afternoon my crafty friends!

Just look at this spectacular fantail fish from the Whimsy Stamps Fish Fancy stamp set.  Very deserving of a comic book burst frame.

I've coloured this image using Spectrum Noir Tri Blends, perfect to achieve the gradient in colours.

At the bottom of this post, you will find a list of all other Whimsy goodies used, I'm always amazed at how many different dies, papers and stamps I use per card and always so pleased that everything works so well together.

Escape into another World


Good Morning! 

Today I am sharing a sweet shaker card of a mermaid blissfully unaware. She's dropped to the ocean bed emerged in her storybook ignoring all of the tiny sea creatures that surround her.   I've captured the delightful scene through a fishbowl looking glass. 

Here's a list of Whimsy goodies: I use affiliate links at no extra cost to you,  however if you do click and make a purchase I may earn a small amount of commission.  Thank you for supporting my blog.
