Spring Bouquet Bunny

I have the sweetest little bunny card today, and no surprise …. I’m back to pink!  Spring Bouquet Bunny is from the Whimsy Stamps April release.  The sentiment is from the Big Wishes Sentiments (digital), I just resized it to fit the oval die.

Copic colours used:

Bunny: W5, 3, 1 0, 00, R20, R00
Daffodils: YR24, 21, Y13
Green: YG67, 61, 61, 20

I finished off the card with mulberry flowers, some crinkled organza ribbon, pearls and a wee mushroom charm

Back early next week with some super sweet images and cards from the May release.  Have a fabulous weekend.

Celebrate!

Black is not a colour I use very often and I’ve no idea why because I love the pop it’s given to my card.  I used the Hellebore Flower Die Set from Whimsy Stamps along with a sentiment from the Big Wishes Sentiments (digital) that was released this month.  Also new is the gorgeous Sprinkles Stencil,

I made the flowers from white Foamiran, which I coloured with soft pastels.

I inked up a piece of white card with Picked Raspberry distress oxide ink, then spritzed some water droplets on to lift some of the colour.  Once dry I applied some glitter paste through the stencil and wow!  The effect is dee-lish-us.  I didn’t have any striped paper and definitely wanted the black to lift the pink so I made a sheet in Photoshop.  I think I’ll be using this a lot more lol.

Hello Friend

Another fairy card!  I just love these little sweeties so much and am thrilled that Whimsy Stamps are now stocking them, and also adding to their collection each release …. so lots more sweetness to look forward to! 

This little fairy is Hello Friend, and I went with my favourite pink colour combo for this one, Pink + Bev = Nirvana lol!  I have a few new digital sets in the Digital Sentiment Sets section of the Whimsy store, with more to come in the next few releases.  I’ve used Make a Wish from the Birthday Wishes Sentiments.  I resized it in word (using the format; crop tool) to the size I needed to fit in the top corner of the card.

I used copic markers to colour the image, and once done I inked in some clouds with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink.  Copic colours used are:

Hair: E40, 42, 44, 47
Skin: E13, 11, 00, 000, R20
Pinks: RV19, 55, 52, 10, 0000
Leaves: YG67, 61
Star: YR27, 24, Y11

The papers are by First Edition, the kraft coloured one has the most beautiful golden sheen to it … LOVE ♥

I finished off with some die cut lace (die is from Joanna Sheen) and mulberry flowers. 

I have two more pink cards to follow in the next week or so, guess I’m well back in my pink phase.

Fairy Gifts For You

Hello from a rather soggy North East.  Ugh we’ve had non stop rain for days now, I can’t WAIT for the weather to wake up to the fact it’s actually spring!  So I made a bright and cheery card, I’m thinking that’s about as bright and cheery as I’m going to get haha.

The stamp – Fairy Gifts For You – is from the new April release by Whimsy Stamps.  There are two adorable little fairies available this month, I have a card with the second fairy scheduled for next week.  I’ve used one of the fabulous sentiments from the Fly By Sentiment stamp set.  The links are at the end of the post.

Copic colours used are

Hair: E29, 27, 25, 21, 50
Skin: E13, 11, 00, 000, R20
Red: R27, 24, 22, 20
Beige: E42, 41, 40
Green: YG67, 63, 61, G20

I found this dinky little enamelled bee in my stash, sooo cute!  I die cut some swirls from gold glitter card for a li’ bit ‘o bling. 

The papers are Maja Designs from a couple years back (Summertime maybes?)

Love your hugs shaker card

Whimsy Stamps April release is full of spring goodness.  There’s also a fabulous Shaker Maker combo die set which I used to make my shaker card …. LOVE the stitched border on the shaker frame!  It’s a good size so perfect to make a full sized square card.  I teamed it with the Spring Flowers background stamp and  added some bunnies and a sentiment from the Hugs Bunny clear stamp set.

I stamped the background stamp onto watercolour paper and heat embossed with white embossing powder.  Then I blended on 4 different colours of Distress Oxide Ink (Broken China, Picked Raspberry, Twisted Citron and Squeezed Lemonade), one in each corner.  I used some of the tiny butterflies and flowers from the shaker set inside the shaker together with some sequins and glitter – gotta have sparkle in shaker cards!  I fussy cut around the images so I could pop them on the front of the card.

I coloured the bunnies and flower pots with copic markers:

Bunnies: C3, 1, 0, 00, R20, 00
Scarf & flowers: R85, 81
FLower pots: B04, 02, 00, 000

I’ll be back on Thursday with another card for the release featuring one of the delectable fairies by Marina Fedotova.
