24 Days of Christmas at Whimsy.


Hello Everyone!
The design team for Whimsy Stamps are having a "24 days of Christmas Party.
Every day a new inspiration card will be posted on the Whimsy blog and today is day 15 my turn. I used a super wonderful image called Christmas Gift Horse by designer Crissy Armstrong from Whimsy Stamps.  I colored my image using copic markers, the sentiment is from vintage Christmas rubber stamp set from Whimsy Stamps,  I used a Fleur De Lis Rectangle spellbinder.
 and  Imaginisce heat set pearls.

 The Sentiment.

Every day from 1st to 24th December, a member of the design team will be sharing a brand new Whimsy holiday creation on the Whimsy blog.  Included in these daily posts will be a LETTER.  Visit the Whimsy Stamps blog every day, make a note of each letter and keep them safe.  Once you have collected all 24 letters, you should be able to unscramble them and make a 4 word phrase.  Email your phrase to whimsystampscontests@gmail.com by 31st December 2013, and if you've guessed correctly, you will be entered into the draw to win a fantastic GRAND PRIZE! 
But that's not all!  We will also be running some fun SPOT PRIZES throughout the entire event.  The prizes could be hidden either on the Whimsy blog or on our design team member's blogs, so be sure to leave a comment both on the Whimsy blog and on our DT's blog posts each day to be in with a chance to win!
GOOD LUCK !

Thank you for stopping by
Have a wonderful day.

Good Morning!
Great to see you again, it's a clear, fairly warm morning here. Sure can't complain, not to cool and no snow. Hopefully today my daughter and I can get outside and decorate our front lawn with a few Christmas things. She convinced me yesterday to buy a few artificial trees from a local store that is trying to get rid of some old stock. They were pretty cheap but pretty neat looking, the one has fake snow all over it. So we thought we would add some lights and a sleigh  and reindeer that lights up.  You have to do decorating while it's not o cool so today should be perfect. Anyways enough about me lets get on to the card that I'm showing you today.

This is a Whimsy challenge card for the theme Party Time. Easy enough challenge to do, especially with the holidays right around the corner. You can make a birthday card or a festive holiday card, anything to do with party's.
This is my card using a wonderful image called "Christmas Shopping" from the Whimsy Store by designer Lia Stampz.
I added some great spellbinder poinsettias and a sentiment. My card is pretty simple but i wanted the image to really be the focal point of my card. I hope you make a wonderful party themed card and play along. I'll be checking to see some of the great creations that have been created for this theme on the Whimsy Challenge blog. 
Happy Crafting !

 A bit closer.

Have a super wonderful day!

Penguins are present card




Hello on this cool winter day.
We are suppose to get a lot of snow in the next 24 hours, yuck! That means shoveling, well at least it's not cold outside. I don't mind the snow but I sure dislike when it's cold and blowing. You know that wind that chills you to the bone. I think the temperature is suppose to be seasonal. Which is okay.

A good day to craft and stay indoors. 
This is a card I made using a super cute image from Whimsy Stamps called Penguins are present from designer Crissy Armstrong. This was a great image to work with, a wonderful Christmas card for someone special. Christmas is just around the corner again. wow how time flies hey.
I hope you get some cards done and that this little cutie will inspire you to do so.


A closer look at the colored image, also in the corners of the photo you can see another great Whimsy product, one is the mini Postage stamp and it was cut out with the matching die. On the top left corner you can see the seasonal ornament stamp set and that was cut out with the matching die.
Thank you tons for stopping by again.
Great to see you.
Stay warm and have a crafty day!

Oct. 26 Snowman country cute.

Hi welcome back to my blog!
It's been a while, sorry about that, sometimes things in our lives just get crazy. Sometimes things beyond our control change the dynamics of our world and you have to push through it and try to focus on the positive, good blessings that present themselves to us. Focus on the little things that put a smile on your face, it's the little joys that sometimes bring us the greatest pleasures. 
That's why I love making cards, scrapbooking and creative avenues. It helps me focus on the shear joy of loosing myself in creating.
Here is my creation for today.
I used this absolutely adorable image from Crissy's Digis from Whimsy Stamps called 
Snowman Country Cute.  I colored him with copic markers  using a grey for the snow, sometimes a light blue works well also.


 A little bit closer of a look at the colored image.
Thank you so much for stopping by and taking a look.
Have a wonderful day and do something that puts a smile on your face today
