Whimsey Stamps February Release Sneek Peek



Hi everyone, hope you've had a good week and welcome to my sneek peek of the Whimsey Stamps February release which I'm joining as a guest designer showcasing my friend Crissy's beautiful new stamp designs and Ann's gorgeous new sentiment stamps. Thank you Crissy and Denise for inviting me, it's a huge pleasure and a real treat for me :)! I'll be back on the 9th February as part of the Release blog hop so I hope you can join me then too. 

Here is Crissy's sweet as can be new little girl with her kitten and the most perfect sentiment by Ann. Crissy's images are always a joy to colour and this one is no exception. I've watercoloured with distress inks for this card and there's some faux stitching around the image, some glittery card and a swiss dots embossed panel. The background paper is by Prima and I've added some glossy accents on the boots and stickles glitter glue.

Enjoy your Friday.

Another show stopper Chris! How on earth did you get the soft lines on the image!? You must have stamped in in a soft grey I'm thinking? Its a beautiful rendition! I love your depth and dimension too and the faux stitches -- would have fooled me if you hadn't said faux! Well done again! I'm honoured to see you using my images! hugs!
