Let's Venti!

Hi Crafty Friends!

I have another super cute Whimsy Stamps clear stamp set to share with you today. Cool Beans! It's such an adorable set, especially coupled with their Coffee Cup die set.

I'm a little out of the loop as to what different types of coffee are out there. I stick to my machine at home but my kiddos tell me you can get alsorts these days and Jo says I'm pretty accurate with the colours I chose! Phew! That's alright then!

I coloured the stamped images using a mixture of Copics and Spectrum Noir Illustrators and a little white gel pen ink for a few highlights.

To add a bit of character and texture to the coffee cup die, I stamped it using the background Chevron stamp. I do love that stamp.

Here's a little list of everything I used.

Thanks for popping over. 

I hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Good Times!

I've got a bit of a shaker theme going on here!  Let's also take a moment to appreciate that stunning background Chevron Stamp! Not only did I stamp but I heat embossed with glitter embossing powder.  I really struggled to get good pictures which is a real shame but take my word for it, its pure luxury!

The Revealer dies were perfect to create a shaker card with, just behind the 'good times' sentiment is where I have hidden the foam tape stopper, so that all of my confetti doesn't fall out.

Here is a list of the goodies that I used to create my card, as usual I have provided links direct to the Whimsy Store.  Affiliate links have been used however this does not affect your purchase in any way.

For my card I made a fun shaped shaker card using lots of my favourite Whimsy goodies and the Bokeh Bliss Collection blue Green Confetti from This Calls for Confetti.

I created this card with lots of dimension in mind.  Those clouds are behind and in front of my acetate sheet giving the confetti plenty of room to move around.

Here is my list of goodies used to create - 

This Calls for Confetti - Bokeh Bliss Collection Blue Green

Nested Hexagon Die Set 

Ants at a Picnic Clear Stamp

Everything Succs without you!

 

Look at these happy little succulents!  careful mind, some are Cacti and might be a bit prickly to touch so don't always be fooled by the cute smiles!!

This card has lots going on and used many great Whimsy products to create.

I coloured all of the images using my Spectrum Noir pens and used a white gel pen for the highlights.  

I don't often use Kraft Card for my cards but I really like how distressed you can make it look with inks and I'm pretty impressed with the depth achieved with the brick background stamp again coloured with my marker pens.

Here's a list of goodies used.

Succ It Up Clear Stamp Set

Brick Background Rubber Stamp

Scallop Six A2 Die

You've got this! Good Luck!

 The Sun has found it's way to my part of the UK, so today is the perfect day to share my bright and colourful rainbow card.

These little rainbows come from the FaDoodle Rainbow stamp set, cute aren't they!

Here's a list of all the goodies I used:

FaDoodle Rainbow Clear Stamps

Quilted Rainbow Die

This card was so a quick and easy to make.  I used 3 water reactive coloured ink pads (harmony inkpads fuchsia, crushed velvet & midnight) and created a blended background.  I also flicked it with a wet brush and dabbed dry to create a bit of texture.  I may have flicked with a sparkle pen too to add some glimmer!  I then put this piece of card through my machine with the Quilted Rainbow Die.  I used the same die on a piece of yellow card too and kept the frame to then go over my blended card.

I stamped out 10 mini rainbows from the Fadoodle stamp set and coloured them in no particular rainbow colour order!  I like to be random and arranged these onto my background.  The sentiments also come from the Fadoodle Stamp set.

I hope you like my card and that you have a great day!

He is Risen

 

I'm back today with another Faith Card.  This time I've added a bit of colour to the background and used the Saviour Die Set and Saviour Stamp Set as the main elements.

I created the cross by using 2 dies of different sizes from the Simple Sentiment Strips Die Set.

I've not done any colouring on this today, instead I've used coloured card stock with the dies.

Here is the list of products used: 

Saviour Stamps

Saviour Die Set

Wonky Stitched Rectangle Die Set

Simple Sentiment Strips Rectangles

Thank you for popping over.  I hope you have a great day.

Bee Hap-bee!

I love the Revealers Die Sets from Whimsy Stamps, especially this particular one!  It's perfect to enhance those speedy characters they also have.  You'd have seen from our DT team creations that we've shown smoke from the hoofs of unicorns and spaceships and I'm pretty certain a pizza from the other die element of this pack.  It's a seriously versatile die, and a must have in your die collection!

I've used it today to show the busy, speedy trail of Hap-Bee Bumblebees!

I totally loved making this card, every time I see or work with Bee images I start singing 'Here Comes the Sun' dada da da.......  I think Wendy is rubbing off on us all, she's amazing at finding a song for all of her creations. I sing this song because it's from The Bee Movie, you know the one, 'urgh! Poo water' 😂😂 That scene would have my kids rolling with laughter, great memories. So Colouring the Bees, singing the songs and creating this card with all the memories of my kids brought pure joy to my heart!

Here's a list of all the amazing Whimsy products used to create this card.
