Penny's Dandelion Shower

I have a card for Bunny Zoe's Crafts to show you today.  I used a really adorable CandiBean stamp called Penny's Dandelion Shower . It is so sweet isn't it?!

When I got to choose one of these new CandiBean stamps to use, I  was wondering if I'd made the right decision.  There were just so many cute ones to choose from!  But now that I've used it, I know I made the right choice for me because I really love it!  :)

I used the Whimsy sentiment set Magical Mini Letter Seals and the Whimsy Double Scallop Doily Die.
I sponged a cloudy sky behind her and coloured her with my copics.
I also used lots of star dust stickles  (It's a lot more sparkly looking in real life) and a Prima Sun Kiss button.
The paper is from a pad by My Minds Eye called Oxford Lane.

I very rarely use yellow on my cards, it's just not one of my favourite colours.  But I love how this turned out. It has inspired me to use it more often :)

Ingredients :
Stamps : Penny's Dandelion Shower (CandiBean), Magical Mini Letter Seals (Whimsy)
Card : x-press it, crumb cake, pool party,  Oxford Lane (MME)
Ink : memento black, pool party
Other : big shot, Whimsy Double Scallop Doily Die, star dust stickles,  Prima Sun Kiss button, hemp thread, SU daffodil ribbon, copics

Twinkle Toes

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and are having a relaxing break now :)
I got quite a few crafty goodies for Christmas and I was very keen to use some of them and make a card, but firstly there was the dreaded job of cleaning my craft room.  It was such a mess!!!
Anyway after getting that done (it took me a whole day!!!) I decided to use this Jo Davies image and make a card for Bunny Zoe's Crafts.

Isn't she gorgeous!!!  It is a Whimsy Stamp called Twinkle Toes and it's on sale at Bunny Zoe's at the moment too.  Actually everything in the store is on sale :)

The sentiment is from a Whimsy set called Magical Mini Letter Seals .  The beautiful paper is from a pad by MME called Cambridge Court and I tried to choose copic markers to match.  I used one of the Christmas presents I bought myself too :) , the Magnolia Tilda Lace Die, and I love it! I am going to use that a lot, I can tell.  I also used some star dust stickles, web ribbon and acrylic round gems.

I think this card would be great for lots of occasions, birthdays, graduations, even New Years Eve!

Ingredients :

Stamps :  Twinkle Toes, Magical Mini Letter Seals
Card : x-press it, basic grey, Cambridge Court (MME)
Ink : memento black
Other : big shot, Magnolia Tilda Lace Die, star dust stickles, web ribbon and acrylic round gems.

Iris

Today is the start of a new challenge at Bunny Zoe's Crafts and the challenge is Wings.
I decided to use a beautiful new release Whimsy stamp by Syvia Zet called Iris.
She's so sweet isn't she!

The paper is from MME and is called Cambridge Court. There are lots of floral patterns in the pad, but I chose this one because it looked a little similar to her flowers.  And I then took inspiration from the paper and coloured the image with my copics in similar colours. So I have this paper (and the designers at MME) to thank because there is no way I would have chosen these colours myself but I love how it turned out :)

Ingredients :
Stamps : Iris (Whimsy Stamps), Magical Mini Letter Seals (Whimsy Stamps)
Card : x-press it, black, crumb cake, Cambridge Court (MME)
Ink : memento black
Other :  Vines Die (Whimsy), flat backed pearls, light pink raffia lace, bakers twine, big shot, white pen, copics

Posey

Hi and welcome to the Whimsy Stamps November Release Review Day Blog Hop.
There is a prize of 2 new release stamps hidden somewhere along the way, so please make sure you leave a comment on each blog for your chance to win.

I decided to use a new stamp by Sylvia Zet called Posey.  She is absolutely adorable isn't she!!!
There are 2 new Wee fairy stamps this month.  A very pretty one called Iris and this one which is the super cute one :) And even though I am frantically trying to get more Christmas cards made, I just couldn't resist her :)

I used star dust stickles on her wings and when dry cut them out.  I then used a knife to cut a little slit along Posey's back and slid the wing in behind.  Then I put some dimensionals near the end of her wings to raise them up and give it a real 3D effect.  I also sponged a cloudy sky behind her.

Ingredients :

Stamps : Posey, Magical Mini Letter Seals
Card : x-press it, black, grey, slate, Delightful (Authentique)
Ink : memento black, pool party, baja
Other : big shot, circle nesties, bakers twine, vintage faceted buttons, star dust stickles, copics

Aren’t these two cute!!!
This is a very sweet stamp by Sylvia Zet called Beau and Bashful.  They are part of the new release at Whimsy Stamps this month.
And I love them and so do my girls of course :)




I decided to colour them in blue and purple because I love this colour combination and I have just added a couple of copics to my BV and BG collections and wanted to try them out.  And at Bunny Zoe’s Crafts the challenge this month is to add something blue and I wanted to play along :)
There are so many fun ways you could colour these two and they could be used for lots of different occasions.
It’s a great stamp!
