Whimsy new release blog hop

Today is Whimsy Stamps Blog hop day to celebrate the launch of their new stamps:

Moonlit Ride and accessories
Maya and Marissa
Jelly Bean

Birthday Letter Seals

Handmade Letter Seals

Fancy Friendship Tags

If you have arrived from Annika's blog you are in the right place, if not then you need to start at Chris's blog. Please do check out all the DT's blogs as they have all posted cards with the new releases on and they are all fabulous!

I have used Maya and Marissa for my card today, and the sentiment is from the fabulous Handmade Letter Seals, unfortunately I did not have enough room on the card to include one of the seals as the image is quite big so sneaked in one of the separate sentiments from the set onto the card.

whimsy-maya-and-marissa

I am really pleased with how the colouring turned out. I must admit I was terrified that I would not do this gorgeous image by Crissy Armstrong justice as I have no faith in my Copics colouring abilities and have never attempted to colour African American skin. I followed Suzanne's tutorial and it was a doddle. Thanks so much for your tutorials Suzanne, they are amazing. I am not keen on the grass, I think it spoils the card but hey ho, it's done now lol.

Okay so now to the Blog Hop candy, yep it's right here!! And what a delish selection of candy it is. You could be the lucky winner of all 6 new releases, yes ALL 6!!

All you need to do is spread the word about the blog hop on your blog, visit the other blogs in the hop and leave a comment on each blog in the hop then add your name below in Mr Linky.

If you don't have a blog you can still enter, just use my URL http://bevscrafts.blogspot.com

whimsy candy

The hop will run until Noon EST on Monday, July 26th and I will draw a winner for the candy and post that later on Monday or Tuesday.

If Mr Linky is missing (again!!) please do NOT enter by leaving a comment as I only draw from the Linky entries. Rather pop back later and try again.


CANDY NOW CLOSED
