There might be gnomes!...

...and the finest month in all the year is the very merry month of May!

Happy May lovely friends - my favourite month of the year!

I'm here all ship shape on the 1st of the month with the start of several days of 

Whimsy Stamps

gorgeousness!

I'm kicking it off with one of the most adorable gnomes -

Gnome Matter What Clear Stamp Set by Dustin Pike

and a beautiful background stamp - 

Scratchy Plaid Background Stamp by Deb Davis

I stamped and coloured this fabulous gnomie with Copics and used the cloud from the 

Up In The Clouds Die Set 

to make a template for using 

Tumbled Glass Distress Ink 

to create clouds.

Then I blended Worn Lipstick and Scattered Straw Distress Inks over a piece of card and stamped and heat embossed it with the wonderful new 

Scratchy Plaid Background Stamp by Deb Davis

I assembled both pieces of the design - the image and the background and added some vellum grass which I die cut with a die from the 

Grass and Cloud Edger Die Set

I stamped the sentiment from the 

Gnome Matter What Clear Stamp Set by Dustin Pike

and die cut it with the smallest 

Tombstone Tag Die

Finally I added some 

Star Dust Stickles

to the flower
