Whimsy Monday

Hello everyone!  Thanks for stopping by today to check up on our latest challenge at Whimsy Stamps!  The challenge this week is to use black and white.  I used the Whimsy skunk for this card.  I did acetate since I didn't want white and didn't have any black left.  I colored the skunk with a gray glitter pen and white ice Stickles.  The paper is DCWV and the ribbon was from Target.  Sentiment is SU.  Thanks for checking it out today and please stop by the rest of the DT for some fabulous inspiration!

This card fits:  Simon Says- Let it Snow,  Fun with Shapes- Snowflakes,  Papercutz- Snowmen or snowflakes,   Corrosive- Walking in a Winter Wonderland

Whimsy Challenge

A little late with this post...so sorry!  Long, busy weekend followed by a long, busy Monday!  So here's my card for Whimsy this week!  The challenge is to use die cuts.  I used a scallop punch and some circle dies.  The image is Whimsy Very Present Helpers.  I colored it with watercolor pencils and silver glitter gel pen and accented with white gel pen.  The accents are buttons with raffia ribbon and "silver" snowflake buttons. Paper is BG and scraps from my stash.  Thanks for stopping by :)

It's Friday and it's another Stamp Something Challenge!


Hi All!  Happy Friday!  I'm so glad it is!  Today at Stamp Something, the challenge is Glitzy!  We want to see glitter, gems, sparkle, etc!  I went with lots of glitter and sparkle! Our sponsor this week is Paper Maniac!  I decided to use an image they sell, so I used the Whimsy Mice.  I cut out the letters and free hand drew in the word "Merry."  I colored the 2 brown mice with water color pencils. The center mouse was colored with a silver glitter gel pen and water color pencil. The paper is BG.  I used a "rustic" stocking charm and a Prima with a jeweled brad to embellish...and a MS Snowflake punch to make the snowflake which I covered with chunky white glitter.  If you like this, please visit the DT to see what else they came up with!  Also, if you like the Whimsy Mice, stop over at Whimsy and check out the Advent Event!  You could win some Whimsy Stamps!

This card fits the following challenges:

The Pink Elephant:  Favorite coloring medium (watercolor pencils)
Stamp With Fun:  Christmas
Creative Card Crew:  Christmas
Paperplay:  Christmas (no red or green)
