~ Ooooh Baby, Baby! ~

Hi everyone,

I am so excited to be a guest designer for the new release at The Paper Nest Dolls. There are so many adorable images to choose from but I have decided to use the adorable "Baby Words" stamp because I can't pass up a cute bunny!  Be sure and check out what some of the other designers have created and leave a comment on the The Paper Nest Doll"s blog for your chance to win some goodies.

~ Winter Chickadee ~

This DoveArt Winter Chickadee from Whimsy Stamps is the perfect image if you are in need of a quick and easy card to make and is perfect for any occasion.
























The Winter Chickadee fits perfectly into the opening that I have created on the front of the card.  I popped up the pattern paper on top of the image with foam tape, which gives the card dimension without a lot of bulk.  I added a favorite sentiment from an old stamp set I have.  To nicely round it out, I simply added some rhinestones.  

I love how this "Winter Chickadee" could be colored to represent all different types of birds and in all the different seasons.

There you have it, a quick and easy card that looks elegant, don't you think?

Happy Stamping,

~ Winter Cardinals ~


Hello my fellow stampers,

I am so honored to announce that I am now a part of the Whimsy Stamps design team.  Whimsy Stamps has picked up the DoveArt Studios line of stamps and the design team gets to now use not only DoveArt stamps but Whimsy's beautiful assortment of products as well.  You will get to see lots more from me in the near future.  You can find the whole Whimsy Stamps lineup HERE.

I am show casing the DoveArt Winter Cardinals.




Winter Cardinals

Copics
Female Cardinal E51, E26, E35, E28, R02, R05
Male Cardinal & Berries R24, R46, R59
Evergreen YG95, G99
Sky BG0000, BG000, BG10
Snow C1, C3, C5

I wanted to give this image some pizzaz, so I added Diamond Dust and Crystal Art Glitter to make the snow shimmer, and for the berries I added Christmas Red Stickles to give them some extra sparkle and make them pop.  To add dimension to the cardinals,  I popped up the female Cardinal twice plus her wing and the male Cardinal three times plus his wing and cheek using dimensional glue.  I really love how this card turned out!

I am super excited to be a joining all the talented designers from Whimsy!  This is going to be so much fun!!!
