text-align: center;">What a hoot to colour up this scene for the donkey in the bath tub! hehe This went to one of my daughters for her birthday and she loved it! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I drew the bathroom scene around the image after I masked it up with my own hand made mask. I used a very light grey Copic to lightly draw where I wanted all the details to be - the baseboard, curtain, towel rack and subway tile. I used a straight edge for the subway tile, but you'd never know that I did... I'm not a straight line kind of gal, so even with a straight edge, my lines are a bit wobbly - oh well, such is the nature of hand drawing! Once everything had a place to go - towels, curtain, tile, baseboard and bubbles, I started filling them in with colour using Copic markers. After all the drawing and filling in with colour, I went over the bubbles using a Wink Of Stella pen. The sparkle would only show in a photo if I turned the paper at an angle, as you see below. I used a white paint pen to add a few highlights in the bubbles. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-size-adjust: auto;">The product link is listed below - and If you make a purchase at Whimsy Stamps by following one of my links, I get compensated (at no extra cost to you) even if it isn't a product from my line - And of course I get compensated for every purchase you make from my line of images at Whimsy too.

It just make me happy! I love looking at them in real life, as well as the challenge of colouring them! What's great is that there are no incorrect shapes - heheh - so you can let your imagination loose. The key is to make all the transitions from one shade to another as smooth and as blended as possible. I used only Copic markers on this card, and for the blue sky, I used the fatter, chisel nib. I find it makes a seamless blend compared to the pointed flexible nib at the other end, which can tend to make lines of demarcation. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">For the blue sky, I used B02, B01, B00, B000, and B0000. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">For the clouds, used BG70, RV0000 and B0000</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Piggie was RV10, R81, RV63, RV93 and RV95</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Balloon was blender pen, RV02, 04, 55, 66</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Hat was Y02, YG01, 03, G14, YG45</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I added the hat later by fussy cutting and pasting it on. :-)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrbV0Atom2RcaAhHgNPcSxQ1uBhNTgOz3c2EOhUNfOiW1oxYXCW_mbXVaT41zuXDCY4kEVlsZUQR0Va0ZWORkmzVtQ4vdYrVOCKQGPRV0kvc7IajP0E4tgwyVzvPh7Ds2BGQ2ISwV9L4ZUCD-y0uDnd9l1HbwwIuAlZkPgt9K4PvxMVLWxa5VVbomNEIuJ/s2232/Ashley's%20piggie%20card%20close.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2232" data-original-width="1107" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrbV0Atom2RcaAhHgNPcSxQ1uBhNTgOz3c2EOhUNfOiW1oxYXCW_mbXVaT41zuXDCY4kEVlsZUQR0Va0ZWORkmzVtQ4vdYrVOCKQGPRV0kvc7IajP0E4tgwyVzvPh7Ds2BGQ2ISwV9L4ZUCD-y0uDnd9l1HbwwIuAlZkPgt9K4PvxMVLWxa5VVbomNEIuJ/w318-h640/Ashley's%20piggie%20card%20close.jpg" width="318" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-size-adjust: auto;">The product link is listed below - and If you make a purchase at Whimsy Stamps by following one of my links, I get compensated (at no extra cost to you) even if it isn't a product from my line - And of course I get compensated for every purchase you make from my line of images at Whimsy too.

This card features a digital unicorn from Whimsy, that I printed and coloured with a combination of Copics (that went on first) followed by some coloured pencil on top. The forest background was inspired by Sandy Allnock and her classes, which I have been doing! Highly recommend her classes if you are unsure how to create a background for your images. She really helps me get some great ideas!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Once I had coloured everything I added the little stardust bits with a white acrylic paint pen. Then all I had to do was die cut the word "Enchanted" and glue it on. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-size-adjust: auto;">All the product links are listed below - and If you make a purchase at Whimsy Stamps by following one of my links, I get compensated (at no extra cost to you) even if it isn't a product from my line - And of course I get compensated for every purchase you make from my line of images at Whimsy too.

I had fun making this winter scene using some evergreen tree dies, some Oxide inks blended on the background sky, and some spattered snow using a white opaque paint. I gave it some extra details by using the Slimline Scenic Window die set. I like how it has the subtle window cut outs with a scalloped line to show a little bit of unexpected texture and interest to the card. The clouds and main image were coloured with Copic markers. I fussy cut the snowman and pasted him onto the card after everything else was done. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-size-adjust: auto;">All the product links are listed below - and If you make a purchase at Whimsy Stamps by following one of my links, I get compensated (at no extra cost to you) even if it isn't a product from my line - And of course I get compensated for every purchase you make from my line of images at Whimsy too.

text-align: center;">I'm still going strong on Christmas cards over here, and having a lot of fun getting into the spirit of the season! For this card I wanted to make a magical scene with Santa flying through the sky. The other six reindeer were taking a bit of a break I guess, heheh, but that's allowed. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I wanted to do a fainter line on the stamped image, and so I used a grey - however, after the colouring was done, I did go over certain lines and re-draw over them with a Copic liner pen because they did need to be defined - especially around the character's eyes, nose, mouth and eyebrows, but also a bit on the sleigh runners and reins. Other than that, I used Copic colours all over the main image and in the shadows of the moon, but all of the sky and trees was done using Oxide inks. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I actually had the image stamped first, with no colour, then carefully cut out a mask to put on top of it. I also cut out a circle to use as a mask where I wanted the moon to go. Once the image and the moon were masked, I went to town sponging on the Oxide inks. I started with Speckled Egg and Tumbled Glass in a halo around the moon, then Stormy Sky blended gradually into Prize Ribbon. While everything was still masked up, I used the Winter Wonderland stencil and Black Soot to give me the tree silhouettes. I was careful in how I ended the trees at the bottom - I wanted to avoid any abrupt endings, so I went back over the bottom areas under the trees with some more Stormy Sky and Prize Ribbon until it looked all misty and blended nicely. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I left it overnight to dry because I didn't want any smears happening when I was colouring up the image and the moon! Once I was done colouring everything, I used a home made stencil and spattered on the little bits of snow in the pattern you see. I took the stencil away and added a few more spatters here and there, then stamped the sentiment and called it done. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-size-adjust: auto;">All the product links are listed below - and If you make a purchase at Whimsy Stamps by following one of my links, I get compensated (at no extra cost to you) even if it isn't a product from my line - And of course I get compensated for every purchase you make from my line of images at Whimsy too.

I thought it would do well if I used a racoon from Raccoon How've You Bin, and put him under a Christmas hat (from the Christmas Accessories digital set). The green goes well with the purple, don't you think? I love it. To make this card you have to be prepared to do some fussy cutting and masking so that you can make it look like the hat is on the raccoon, and then sponge on the Oxide inks for the background sky, trees and snow! I coloured the hat and raccoon with Copic markers, but everything else is Oxide inks and the falling snow is Copic white paint on a watercolour brush and then spattered by tapping the brush lightly. For the soft snowy hills, I just used some hand cut "hills" on scrap paper to use as masks for when I lightly sponged on the Shaded Lilac Oxide ink. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-size-adjust: auto;">All the product links are listed below - and If you make a purchase at Whimsy Stamps by following one of my links, I get compensated (at no extra cost to you) even if it isn't a product from my line - And of course I get compensated for every purchase you make from my line of images at Whimsy too.

text-align: center;">I had the pleasure of doing a Copic colouring course with Sandy Allnock and it was super fun! I do recommend her classes as they are so easy to follow and fun to do. This background was inspired by one of her classes and I love how it turned out! I thought the deer (from my Woodland Critters Clear stamp set) was the perfect character to put into the scene. I had made the background first, so I had to fussy cut the deer and the little bird and glue them in place. I also hand drew a Santa hat to add to the deer to make it a little more Christmassy! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The beautiful word die, "believe" was coated with Wink of Stella for some sparkle after I had glued it on. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ_TPTdzj9VMpPNh9_wkocZOEDLYkpaNKhjnHA5NMzZUHdg_fgMpSaliWqyExLW2EEILZAMFl8Qo6B9nJtgiDfedLGrb-8Nax6iPPLzUm4fpC2wwVqFsJyKmtxnGKwadeda0Dnt9x6mJwB3GIouDRz1IEWWovqzqFPmD_USwI7UkOWeL19wGMoivvDW4ng/s1550/sandy%20allnock%20inspired%20deer%20card%20close.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1550" data-original-width="800" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ_TPTdzj9VMpPNh9_wkocZOEDLYkpaNKhjnHA5NMzZUHdg_fgMpSaliWqyExLW2EEILZAMFl8Qo6B9nJtgiDfedLGrb-8Nax6iPPLzUm4fpC2wwVqFsJyKmtxnGKwadeda0Dnt9x6mJwB3GIouDRz1IEWWovqzqFPmD_USwI7UkOWeL19wGMoivvDW4ng/w330-h640/sandy%20allnock%20inspired%20deer%20card%20close.jpg" width="330" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-size-adjust: auto;">All the product links are listed below - and If you make a purchase at Whimsy Stamps by following one of my links, I get compensated (at no extra cost to you) even if it isn't a product from my line - And of course I get compensated for every purchase you make from my line of images at Whimsy too.

I laughed out loud when I saw it all finished with the sentiment. Heheh! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is a lot of fun to make, and you can re-create it with some fancy shmancy masking techniques and lot of patience! I had to hand cut the following for masking - the larger candy canes (from Gnome Warm Wishes), the two monsters, and their hats! I initially coloured everything with Copic markers, with the exception of the sky, which was done with sponging on Tumbled Glass and Prize Ribbon Oxide inks. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">It was a bit of a heart stopping moment when I started sponging the Tumbled Glass over the more distant and mid ground candy canes - believe me, not for the faint of heart! After all that colouring, at this point, if something goes wrong, it is a scary thought! But thankfully the ink and my hand and the sponge worked in concert, and everything turned out well! I did go over some of the more distant hills with a light coating of Faded Jeans Oxide and even a few sweeps of Prize Ribbon ink as well. Then, I had the fun of splattering on the snow using Copic White on a paintbrush and tapping it until I had filled the sky and some of the mid and foreground too. Then it was off with the masks, and to finish it off, I added a few splatters of snow on the large candy canes and the characters - but I kept it light so that they didn't disappear under a hail of snow! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Another heart stopping moment was putting on the sentiment from Christmas Moments - dang, I am happy I have a stamping platform! I don't know what I would do without it (yeah I do, ruin many a card, that is what I would do, ha ha!). </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-size-adjust: auto;">All the product links are listed below - and If you make a purchase at Whimsy Stamps by following one of my links, I get compensated (at no extra cost to you) even if it isn't a product from my line - And of course I get compensated for every purchase you make from my line of images at Whimsy too.

And what better way to do that than to make a card with them in traditional Christmas colours and trimmings! I have one of the characters from the new Teddy Bear Sweet clear stamp set, carrying his big load of candy canes; I imagine he's heading to the tree to hang them all on the branches! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I coloured the teddy with a layer of Copics first. Then, I went over most of it with coloured pencil to really bring it out. I masked it off with the new NoFuss Masks from Whimsy - oh my, that makes masking so quick and easy, no fussy cutting your own mask out! I highly recommend because not only are they quick and easy, they also protect really well, and, they are re-useable if you take them off gently enough! You can get about three uses out of each mask! And there's no sticky residue left on your card. It's all a win-win!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Anyhoo, once it was masked, I sponged and blended a couple of Oxide inks - Twisted Citron and Cracked Pistachio, with a tiny dab of Rustic Wilderness for a shadow on the ground under his body. Then I used the super cute Fadoodle Holly set by Faye, (LOVE you Faye, waving!!) to decorate the corners and border. I stamped the holly, coloured it, fussy cut it and glued it down in the corners. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The striped paper came from the digital pack shown below called "I Dream In Christmas"- I had it on my computer screen in my Pages program, and was able to stretch it out to fill the page. I wanted to do that so I could make the angled layer that you see with the stripes going at a 45 degree angle (so it had to fill the whole page). I printed it off and trimmed it to fit my card panel. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Don't forget to take advantage of the Black Friday sale!! Details in the image above!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-size-adjust: auto;">All the product links are listed below - and If you make a purchase at Whimsy Stamps by following one of my links, I get compensated (at no extra cost to you) even if it isn't a product from my line - And of course I get compensated for every purchase you make from my line of images at Whimsy too.

text-align: center;">Elves On Christmas clear stamp set at Whimsy Stamps makes up such a fun card, with three little elves to choose from. For this card, I chose the elf that is seated on a wrapped candy! You can see other samples of other elves if you type Elves On Christmas into the search bar on this blog (jussayin!). I coloured the elf with Copic markers, and added a little bit of white paint pen on the wrapper to give it that transparent look. I then fussy cut around the image so I could place it on a background I was intending to make. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The background was made by sponging on three distress inks onto white card - Salvaged Patina, Stormy Sky, and Faded Jeans. I trimmed it to the size I wanted, then I used a home made stencil to do some splatter technique with a white paint and watercolour brush. After the spatters were dry, I stamped the sentiment. The stencil is one I made myself on white card, by cutting out some swirly longish strips. For this scene, I wanted to make it look like the swirls were magical pixie dust.

I had such a good time colouring him up and giving him a snowy winter scene. I created a mask for him and for the candy cane, then went to work creating some "hills" with the dies shown below (I did continue the hills slightly with freehand cutting with scissors because I wanted a longer hill). I used the die cut curves to mask off where I wanted the hills to go. Then I sponged on some Oxide inks to bring out the hills and the sky. After I was done the background, I took the masks off and coloured the image up with Copic markers. The snow in the foreground was also done with the markers. The final touches were the snowy sky and the sentiment (that sentiment is from a discontinued set). For the snowy swirls, I had made a cardboard stencil the other day, with some swirls I had cut out, so I just re-masked Santa, and laid the homemade stencil over top, then using my Copic white paint and a watercolour brush, used the spatter technique to fill in the swirly holes of the stencil. I added a few random spatters here and there to complete the scene.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-size-adjust: auto;">All the product links are listed below - and If you make a purchase at Whimsy Stamps by following one of my links, I get compensated (at no extra cost to you) even if it isn't a product from my line - And of course I get compensated for every purchase you make from my line of images at Whimsy too.

I love love love using stencils and Oxide inks to "help" fill in the background! I also REALLY love the new No Fuss Masks at Whimsy, gosh they make masking an image so easy peasy, and quick too! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I coloured the image, trimmed the panel to make a square, and then proceeded to mask off where I needed. I used a No Fuss mask on the unicorn (see below for a link!) first. Then I masked off a curved hill near the unicorn's feet, using a die from the the Stitched Border Trio. Then, I die cut the large "Snowy Tree and placed that to the right of the image to use it as a mask; I didn't want to get any ink in that area so I had to keep it clear of colour, in the shape of a tree. So using the die cut as a mask worked wonders for this technique! It made it possible for me to go back in and colour up a tree, just like you see here, on the right. I did something similar on the left with some birch tree shapes as well. Then, Once everything was masked up where I didn't want any Oxide ink to go, I was ready to apply the Oxides. I started with the hill behind the unicorn and birch trees. I used Speckled Egg to sponge a bit of shadow on that hill. Then I grabbed the Winter Wonderland Stencil and Old Paper and Shabby Shutters inks, and went to town creating the trees in the background. I lifted off the stencil, and used some Tumbled Glass Oxide ink for the sky and I put a few bits of it here and there on the first snowy hill I had made. After that I was able to peel almost all the masks away (except for the unicorn, I left that one on) and began colouring the two birch trees, the evergreen on the right, and the shadows on the snow in the foreground using Copic markers for all the details. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">When all the colouring was complete, I got Copic white paint and a watercolour brush, and spattered the snowflakes all over. Once it was dry (only takes a couple minutes, it dries so fast), I peeled off the No Fuss mask from the unicorn. I finished it off by stamping the sentiment, and then it was just a matter of layering it up and putting it on a card base. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-size-adjust: auto;">All the product links are listed below - and If you make a purchase at Whimsy Stamps by following one of my links, I get compensated (at no extra cost to you) even if it isn't a product from my line - And of course I get compensated for every purchase you make from my line of images at Whimsy too.

I had a fun time creating the scene - I used a hand made stencil with swirls cut out of it to make a swirly snowy sky. I just used the Oxide ink the make a nice inky blue, then used Copic white paint and a water colour brush to splatter on the snow through the stencil. I love the effect! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I cut out a couple of Mountain Majesty die cuts for the background, and then a few more "hills" using the Stitched Border Trio, and the little panel with the sentiment is from the Quick Strips die set. I had to use two die cut panels from Mountain Majesty, but they are joined together behind the doggie, so you can't see the seams. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I coloured the doggie and the hat with Copics, and fussy cut them out to place where I needed them to go in the scene. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-size-adjust: auto;">All the product links are listed below - and If you make a purchase at Whimsy Stamps by following one of my links, I get compensated (at no extra cost to you) even if it isn't a product from my line - And of course I get compensated for every purchase you make from my line of images at Whimsy too.

I coloured the images using Copics first, and then went over that first layer of colour with some coloured pencils. I made the green background by spatter painting white Copic paint through a home made stencil (that I had cut swirls into). Cut out the images with the Notched Squares die to give me two panels to place on the green background. The Loopie die made a nice tie in for the panels, drawing your eye from one to the other. I actually used the Sun Rays stencil to colour the red stripes on the loopie with some Color Box ink. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-size-adjust: auto;">All the product links are listed below - and If you make a purchase at Whimsy Stamps by following one of my links, I get compensated (at no extra cost to you) even if it isn't a product from my line - And of course I get compensated for every purchase you make from my line of images at Whimsy too.

text-align: center;">Another Christmas Doggie card, and this one didn't take long to make! I coloured the image with Copics, and look how the colour of the doggie's sled (BG72, 75) look against the backdrop of the sheet from Frozen paper pack! It's like they were made for each other! I fussy cut the image out so I could place him exactly where I wanted on this hill. I used the Nightmare die (one that came out at Halloween, but does great double duty for Christmas too!) and used a white paint pen to dot all my snow and outline the die cut too. It is a bit longer doing it this way (as opposed to splatter painting with a brush) but you know, I sometimes like to take that time as it can be like meditating! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">All I had to do after that was die cut the Merry and Bright word die (I only used the "merry" as you can see), and stamp the word Christmas from Faye's cute set, Fadoodle Holly. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-size-adjust: auto;">All the product links are listed below - and If you make a purchase at Whimsy Stamps by following one of my links, I get compensated (at no extra cost to you) even if it isn't a product from my line - And of course I get compensated for every purchase you make from my line of images at Whimsy too.

This is a case of, the paper was too pretty to cover up! And I found it went so well with this little doggie and the die cut snowflakes! The outside striped layer was made by cutting strips of a sheet that I printed from Christmas Traditions digital paper. I coloured the doggie with Copic markers.

text-align: center;">So this little elf is just way too fun to colour and I had to make another card with him! I used Copic markers, and fussy cut him, then made my background with Oxide inks and Copic white paint. I again used a hand made stencil to make the swirls of snow by spattering the Copic White paint off a paintbrush - and it only landed in the swirly "holes" I had cut out of my "stencil". It makes up a quick background when I use Oxide inks and a few splatters of paint or water. It is so satisfying! Finished it off with a few die cuts, a layer to frame it, and voila, called it done! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-size-adjust: auto;">All the product links are listed below - and If you make a purchase at Whimsy Stamps by following one of my links, I get compensated (at no extra cost to you) even if it isn't a product from my line - And of course I get compensated for every purchase you make from my line of images at Whimsy too.

(truth be told, ANY time of year, heheh!) But this is the time when I get to indulge in it! For this card, I used Copics to colour my image, then I created a mask for it, applied the mask, and then sponged on some Old Paper Oxide ink. Then I splattered it a bit with water, then some greenish brown water colour, just so it wasn't a solid colour, all flat with nothing else going on. I had a wonderful time getting my snowflakes all snowy using a spray glue and some glass glitter! I know it doesn't sound like I mean it, but I do! I got it down to a system, so I wasn't too overwhelmed with sticky gluey fingers and tiny pieces of glass! I use a box, and put the snowflakes in the box so that there's no overspray on my table. Then I used tweezers to pick up each piece, and dip it into the crushed glass, and set it down on a sheet of paper to dry. It did gum up the tweezers, but a little soak in nail polish remover got rid of that in a jiffy! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">On the elf herself, I went over her green clothing with a Wink of Stella pen to give her a real shimmer and shine! I put an extra photo down below so you could see how sparkly it is! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I made the striped paper with the Brushed Stripes red rubber stamp, and some bright red Color Box pigment ink and let it dry before trimming it to fit. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-size-adjust: auto;">All the product links are listed below - and If you make a purchase at Whimsy Stamps by following one of my links, I get compensated (at no extra cost to you) even if it isn't a product from my line - And of course I get compensated for every purchase you make from my line of images at Whimsy too.

text-align: center;">This set makes for some cute Christmas cards for all your dog loving friends! Who could resist their little faces and fun loving attitudes! I coloured the image with Copics, and then made a mask for it, so that I could safely apply some Oxide inks to make a soft background. For the hills in the foreground and mid ground, I also used a masking technique, by simply using the border dies (shown below) to cut out some hills that I could then use as masks. They allowed me to apply the ink in a rounded way, which made the appearance of hills!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The swirly snow in the sky was fun to do. I made a paper stencil by cutting out some hand drawn swirls - then I laid the paper with the swirl cut-outs over top, while all the other masks were still tacked down; then I sprinkled on some white Copic paint from a water colour brush, until the specks of paint filled in the swirly areas of my hand made stencil. Then I took that stencil away, and filled in a few more paint spatters in various places. Then it was off with the rest of the masks, to reveal the scene (my most favourite part of the process for sure!). </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-size-adjust: auto;">All the product links are listed below - and If you make a purchase at Whimsy Stamps by following one of my links, I get compensated (at no extra cost to you) even if it isn't a product from my line - And of course I get compensated for every purchase you make from my line of images at Whimsy too.

Heheh. Got these two moose cards made and you know, I don't even know yet if I will use them for a winter birthday or for Christmas cards... that is yet to be decided... all that to say, this is a versatile set that can be used for either or both. I coloured the little moose with Copics and fussy cut him out to place him in the scene. I set the scene with some Oxide ink blending and using the new Three Trees Border die. That die is going to get a lot of use during the winter months! I love it - it's so simple and yet it has such an impact for a cute background scene! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I used the little bits that I die cut from the Glitter Globe set to pepper the sky with cute snowflakes.

text-align: center;">It's been awhile since I did any watercolouring, and this beautiful poinsettia stamp reminded me how much I enjoy it! I should crack open my Twinkling H20's more often! I love how this turned out. I opted for a crisp white background so all I had to do was paint the leaves of this gorgeous Christmas flower. I used a pad of 9 x 12 Canson 140 lb cold press water colour paper and stamped the image with Versafine Onyx Black. I chose the favourite colours of the person who will be receiving this card. The sparkly frame was die cut from an old envelope (the inside lining) that I had kept to use one day, and this was the day. It added just the right amount of holiday sparkle!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The stitched ovals for the sentiment came from two different die sets and they happen to fit together beautifully. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-size-adjust: auto;">All the product links are listed below - and If you make a purchase at Whimsy Stamps by following one of my links, I get compensated (at no extra cost to you) even if it isn't a product from my line - And of course I get compensated for every purchase you make from my line of images at Whimsy too.
