Autumn Word and Shadow Die - Whimsy Stamps

 Hello everyone,
I hope this week is being kind to you!

I have a gorgeous new die set to show you today from

There is also a Hurricane Ian Update at the end of this post from lovely Denise, owner of Whimsy Stamps


The die is so versatile, and as you can see, I have used the word part on its own for my card.

The background is created with Distress Inks in Crackling Campfire and Speckled Egg.  I blended the inks onto my card stock and then drew a large wet paintbrush through them from left to right to create the lines.

The beautiful pumpkin image is coloured with Copic Markers.  (Details at the end of this post)

Hurricane Ian Update
Orders Now Shipping
Thank you all for your continued support and patience. The Whimsy warehouse now has power and our internet is spotty but working well enough that we were able to start shipping orders Monday and Tuesday. We have everything from Monday afternoon of last week (9/26) through Sunday (10/2) processed and shipped out as of yesterday (10/4). 
We will be going into the office for a few hours each day this week to catch up on all new orders received since Monday (10/3). We are about 2 days behind our normal shipping schedule but expect to be fully caught up by the end of the week, providing we can maintain that internet connection.
We continue to pray for our customers and friends in various communities here in Southwest Florida. Our hearts go out to them as well as all those affected by this horrible storm. Please continue to send prayers and support to all of us here as we recover and rebuild all that was lost. And we could use lots of positives vibes for our Deb Davis as her family is still without power and they're also are having trouble with their water too.

Pumpkin Spice Pandas - Whimsy Stamps

Hello everyone,

I'm back today with some really super new release products from wonderful

Pumpkin Spice Pandas Clear Stamps by Krista Hiej-Barber
and quite possibly the cleverest slimline die ever!
plus a gorgeous embossing folder

This fall feel card was really good fun to make! 

The 
is FAB-U-LOUS!  
**NEW Slimline Twisty Frame Die Set
The frame edges are cut in two parts so that the slotted front part can be layered onto a different coloured background, plus each edge is cut separately - and there are a selection of little decorative circles for the corners - sheer genius from lovely Denise and Deb who designed this!  

I have used leftover pieces of inky card for the coloured part of my frame.  
(I knew there was a reason I never throw inky bits away)!

The pandas are coloured with Copic Markers - I'll pop a list of the colours I used at the end of this post for you.

Whimsy Stamps - Leaf Border Stamp and Die Combo...

Happy Sunday everyone!

I hope you are enjoying your weekend!

We have a mini release today at 
...and I have been playing with a beautiful new product...
To make my card I splashed come Lindy's Stamp Gang Magic Powders
onto a piece of Watercolour card and heat embossed the Leaf Frame over it in gold.

I then used the die to cut the design out.

I stamped and also heat embossed in gold, a sentiment from the
You're My Favorite Clear Stamps Set onto a piece of brown card and placed that behind the frame.  I fixed the frame to the card background with foam tape.

Finally I added some dots with a gold gel pen.

Fall Is In The Air...

Good Morning friends...

Here we are on the last day of November - it does n't seem possible!  The month has flown by far too fast!  Expect the next one will too which is scary!

I am here with a bit of fun today.  My card is for a My Besties UK extra post - not a challenge but a bit of fun for you all.  

All you need to do is pop to My Besties UK and leave a comment for the design team to be in with a chance to win one of the images used in today's post.
To make my card I have used Sherri Baldy's gorgeous digi
This lovely image is available from 

I have gone for a simple layout because I wanted this cutie with her lovely poem to be 
'the main event'.  I have coloured her with Copics, used a die cut frame with Lili of the Valley papers and added some leaves and buttons.  Finally I added bit of shimmer with some gold Stickles.

Following my lovely day colouring with Faye last week, I decided to give purple hair a try.  More practice required I think but somehow it suits this Fall Princess!
