You can check out the Limited Edition Happy Pugmas stamp set HERE or the Limited Edition Happy Pugmas stamp set with coordinating wafer dies HERE. As with all the Limited Edition exclusive collabs these are only while supplies last and once they sell out they're gone!

This is a 3.5 x 8.5" slimline card.

I stamped the images from the Happy Pugmas set onto Neenah Classic Crest 80lb card stock with Simon's Intense Black ink and coloured them all in with Copic Markers.

I used the Mama Elephant Slim Card Basics wafer die set for all my die cutting on this card. I die cut the windows and blended several colors of Distress inks into them. I then added the derpy pugs into the openings and a sentiment from the Happy Pugmas set.

I finished off the inside of the card with another pug and sentiment from the Happy Pugmas set. I made an envelope from some Doodlebug patterned paper using the Trinity Stamps Slimline Envelope Builder wafer die set to tie it all together and that was it!

Now for today's card:

I decided to create this fun trick or treating "mashup" scene using several Whimsy Stamps stamp set and one of their stencils. It just took on a life of it's own while I was creating it and it was so fun!

I stamped the haunted house in Simon Says Stamp Smoke ink for the background, then used Brutus Monroe Raven Glitter Glaze over the flying bat cluster in the Halloween Creatures Stencil.

The characters were stamped onto Neenah card stock and coloured in with Copics, and the sentiments were heat embossed with Wendi Vecchi Violet embossing powder.

I also used the stencil on the card base AND inside of the card using one of the new (to me) Picket Fence Life Changing Blending Brushes (seriously they ARE amazing):

I used one of the smaller brushes with Distress Ink in black soot, heat embossed another sentiment and added the stamped and coloured bats and that was it!

Whimsy Stamps Frankenstein Schmutz | AmyR 2018 Halloween Series 3

Happy Monday again everyone! Post #2 from me today - check out my previous post HERE if you missed it:

 STAMPtember Exclusive Codes for Simon Says Stamp

OK - back with another Halloween episode!

I pulled out Whimsy Stamps Frankenstein Schmutz that I showed in a recent haul video, and combined it with the Authentique Nightfall 6x6 patterned papers that I got in the same haul.

I stamped Frankenstein's monster onto Neenah Desert Storm card stock with GinaK Amalgam ink then used s few Copics to color them in. 

I used a white Prismacolor pencil to add some subtle highlights to my monsters, and sponged the edges with Black Soot Distress Oxide ink. The sentiments are from the same set and were heat embossed with Wendi Vecchi Leaf Green embossing powder for the green and SSS Detail White embossing powder for the rest.

To make the second card a birthday I just switched out one of the sentiments and added a party hat that I'd stamped with Carved Pumpkin Distress Oxide ink and coloured in with the same orange Copic marker.

I finished off the insides of the cards with more heat embossed sentiments from the set. I stamped the cloud and lightning bolt image and then added the white Prismacolor pencil to the cloud and that was it!

Whimsy Stamps Tri-fold Birthday Card

Hello everyone! I made my first tri-fold card!!

I used Whimsy Stamps Old Fart 🤣 stamp set to make this hilarious birthday card, and I combined it with MFT's Balloon Numbers Die-namics to personalize it. I did some "old school" paper piecing on the main image using Doodlebug's Hello 6x6 pack.

I stamped the image with Ink on 3's Blackout ink and coloured it in with Copic markers and then paper pieced her cardigan and skirt. I also used some of the patterned papers for die cutting with the balloons and for the frame and main card panel.

For the first inside panel of this card I white heat embossed (using Rangers Super Fine Detail white embossing powder) all the sentiments from the Old Fart set onto black card stock. I trimmed them all out and adhered them over more of the patterned paper balloons.

On the inside of the card I used this stamp from Two-Lips Stamps - since this card is late and going to arrive late it was rather fitting lol!

I also stamped the main character onto a Simon Says Stamp Cotton Candy pink envelope with Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide ink to finish it off.

Whimsy Stamps Watercolor Scene Card | Mission Gold Watercolor

I made a NON-A2 sized card! Crazy (for me) right? This is actually a 4x8.25" card - a rather odd size but I explain why in the video and this will fit in a business size envelope.

I had fun creating this little scene using 2 different Whimsy Stamps sets - Bunny Balloons and Fly By. I didn't have a hot air balloon image but if I'd had I'd have stamped it on the inside as that's how these bunnies get rescued (does anyone else come up with stories in their heads when making cards? I don't always but ones like this totally create their own stories...).

I stamped the images onto Arches Cold Press watercolor paper (trying to force myself to use it more as it really IS beautiful to watercolor on) with Ink on 3's Blackout ink then watercoloring it all with my Mijello Mission Gold watercolors.

I finished off the inside of the card with a sentiment from the Bunny Balloons stamp set and the clouds from the Fly By set and that was it!
