Whimsy November 2014 Release - Grand Blog Hop!

Hello again, and welcome to the...
Whimsy Stamps November Release BLOG HOP!

Our DT and GDT have been sharing some amazing creations made with the new stamps and dies over the last couple of days, and today we are celebrating their release with a GRAND BLOG HOP!

You can see all the stamps and dies from this release, along with the last 2 days hops at the Whimsy blog. And the entire new release is available to buy from the Whimsy Stamps store RIGHT NOW!

For today's card I have used the beautiful new 'Lullaby' from Wee Stamps. She is such a sweet darling! I also used the 'Double Scalloped Doily Die' and
'Layered Snowflake' dies, both available from Whimsy Stamps.


The image was stamped twice with Memento ink, and coloured with Copic markers, and shaded with Distress Ink 'Antique Linen'. I then die-cut the image into a circle and layered on the Whimsy Double Doily. The papers are from a Sweet Shoppe Designs digital kit.


The beautiful mulberry flowers and pearl sprays are all from Wild Orchid Crafts, and I have used a mixture of Gardenias, Wild Roses and Astor Daisies, all in Ivory and White. The gorgeous lace and string of pearls were a gift and went perfectly with this card!


I finished with Stickles for some sparkly snow, and glittery angel wings, and some silver bells to embellish.Here is a close up of the sweet 'Lullaby' image...

 
Hope you like my card!

So Pretty, this image has to be one of my top favorites from this release. I love what you did to the snow on the branch, it looks like snow but it also looks a bit like ice, Very Neat! Fantastic job all around! ~ Sarah L.
