Welcome to the Whimsy Stamps August 2013 rubber stamp and die release BLOG HOP!
Our brand new August release Rubber Stamps & Stamp Sets, Whimsy Shapeology Dies, Shape EZ template and Whimsy Designer Paper 6x6 packs are now available to buy from the
Whimsy Stamps store!!
To celebrate our new release, the DT are holding a blog hop today and are sharing creations made with some of the brand new
Crissy Armstrong, Elisabeth Bell and
Kenny K stamps! The blog hop has a
prize of 2 new release stamps hidden somewhere along the way and you have 24hrs to enter each prize draw.
For my card I used a new Kenny K image called Goldfish Kid.
I realised the last time my daughter had a boy's birthday party to go to, that I had no good boy stamps that weren't babyish! (She is 8 and was not impressed with the card she had to give :( Very uncool!)
So I thought this one would be a perfect addition to my stamp collection :) Great for boys of any age I think.
I coloured the kid all in greys to try to give it a real comic strip feel. And I put the emphasis on the cute goldfish by giving it all the colour and using crystal effects on the bag to make it shiny.
I printed the O'fish'ally saying on the computer and used the great "smile" saying from the Treasured Moments Tickets set. I think it's perfect for the goldfish and kid.
