Whimsey Stamps Magazine Card & Project


If you haven't checked out the Whimsy Stamps Magazine yet, I HIGHLY recommend it! Oh wow, there are project tutorials and beautiful cards galore! I love it!  This issue teamed up with Wild Orchid Crafts to show some amazing work!!!! You all know how much I adore my Wild Orchid Crafts products! haha!  I used the adorable new Winter Fairy by Sylvia Zet that is now available in rubber at Whimsy Stamps.  This is defo my fav ever Wee Stamp.  She is just too sweet for words.

Card Ingredients

Stamps:  Whimsy Stamps - Winter Fairy, Whimsy Sentiment-Season's Greetings 1
Inks:  Distress Inks
Paper:   Bo Bunny
Tools:  MS Pine Branch Punch, Spellbinders Lacy Circles
Embellishments:  Lg. Burgundy Curly Rose, Ivory Cherry Blossom, Gypsophilia, Cream Seam Binding, lace all from Wild Orchid Crafts.  I also added Twinklets Diamond Dust for the snow and Stickles on the wings.

I decided to make a little ornament also.


I have stamped with Memento Black onto muslin fabric then colored with copics.  I sandwiched the layer like so, Top-Muslin, then batting, then circle cardboard for stability, then muslin on the very back.  I added lace and sewed it all around.  It really was super easy.  I used the same WOC flowers on this as on the card!

I hope you will check out the magazine if you already haven't.  It is only available online, there are no hard copies to buy and the best part FREE!!!!!! Gotta love free!!!  You can find the latest issue HERE!

It is a glorious Sunday here in Houston.  The weather is amazing! I think Tom and I are going for a nice long bike ride today. 

Have a good one!!!! Thank you for visiting me!

Hugs, Dena

    Hi Dena, just love that wee stamp and coloured beautifully as usual. Great idea for the ornament, been meaning to stamp on fabric for a while. Will add it to my never ending list, lol. I have been popping by, usually in my lunch hour so not enough time to leave a comment but I sure find you inspirational!

    Both of these are just gorgeous Dena! I really really like your ornament. :-) Thanks so much for answering my question about whether you used the pads or reinkers last week. I've been playing and having fun, with not too bad results. LOL I'm sure I'll keep looking here for lots of inspiration. :-) Hugs!
