Don't forget ...as well as random winners being chosen each challenge, one lucky player who has used a Whimsy Stamps image (rubber or digital) will have the opportunity to be a guest designer for a future challenge. If you have used a Whimsy Image and would like to be a future guest, please add GDT to your name when entering. The guest designer will be able to choose a digi stamp of their choice from the store to create their guest card too!

Any of you that know and follow my work know that Shabby Chic is not my ordinary style (giggle). However, when I made a project last month for another team, I found out that Shabby Chic doesn't necessarily have to be subtle and light blues and pinks. You can make any color shabby and the Chic is a fashion that can be considered as many things such as, glittery, over the top, eclectic or many more. So with the Kenny K image I've used today, it fit perfectly with the bright pink stock paper, the lovely crystal swirls, the mis matched sentiment and the lovely muted grey paper from Michele Roos.

INGREDIENTS:

Design paper is Floral Explosion by Michele Roos

Kenny K image is Tomboy Trouble

Studio G Alpha Set

MEDIUMS:

Copic Ink
Studio G pigment Ink
Victorian Velvet Distress Ink

EMBELLISHMENTS:

Recollections flowers
Satin and Tulle flower - handmade
black button stash
Prima Say It In Crystals
Prima Decorative Border "Valenciennes Colsteil

INSPIRATIONAL THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

Nothing is impossible . . the word itself says possible!

If you enjoy a good 3D project or just need a special box or bag, stop by the Whimsy Stamps Store available today for my Shape "EZ" product line of Cut templates like bags, boxes, flowers, and cards with tons of add on's! These templates can help you make any project just the way you like it. Over and Over again! The NEW Shape "EZ" cut files are available today!

Hi everyone and welcome to the

Whimsy Stamps September Rubber Stamps and Die Release Blog Hop!

Our brand new September release Rubber Stamps and Stamp Sets, Whimsy Shapeology Dies and Whimsy Designer Paper 6x6 packs are now available to buy from the Whimsy Stamps store!! For a full reveal of our new release goodies, please visit the Whimsy blog.

To celebrate our new release, the DT are holding a blog hop today and are sharing creations made with some of the brand new Elisabeth Bell, Time For Tea Designs and Raindrop Echo Designs stamps! The blog hop has a prize of 2 new release stamps hidden somewhere along the way and you have 24hrs to enter each prize draw!

To be entered into today's blog hop prize draw, be sure to leave a comment on ALL of the DT's posts listed below by 12.00PM EST tomorrow. All winners will be announced on the Whimsy blog on Friday.

So On to my project:

I used the lovely NEW Under the Mistletoe Girl and Under The Misteltoe Boy Stamps today for my first holiday presentation card! They were masked just at the mistletoe to appear that they both want the other to kiss! They are just too darling! I went outside of my comfort zone and created a holiday card in light muted colors and a Shabby Chic feel. Loads of embossing enamel was used inside the image area to envelope around the two love birds for a romantic touch. Also, I think I'm in love with the little chipboard hearts too, they have color ready spots in them you can add a touch of color to to match your projects as you can see with the green lines through them! Aren't they fabby? Hope you enjoy!

Butterfly Dreams

Come fly with me in my butterfly dreams! Wouldn't you love to be so free? I know I would! Laze around amongst the flowers and simply flutter by! I'm dreaming, I know! ONE day left until the CHA trip to Vegas! I'm so excited to meet the world of paper crafting designers, manufacturers and retailers! Of course, it's not just going to be about that for the whole week! Hubby and I are going to stay a bit longer and see the sights! The gondola rides, the dueling pianist twins, the renown Blue Man Group, the Eiffel Tower and lights on the fountains at night! This will be our very first trip together WITHOUT our children! A new day is dawning! I'll miss them, but I won't! You know?

Mom, needing a break from the Florida heat anyway, has flown in to care for the teen, house and pets . . . not to mention visit her relatives here as well so all is good! Can't wait!

Today I want to share one of my favorite Shape EZ templates, the Butterfly sold at Whimsy Stamps. The amount of possibilities with this template is staggering! You can make it super simple, or really elaborate! I think I've done the later here but some would say they could add even more?? Yikes! I think enough of my inventory has been used, what do you think?

This was featured in the Whimsy Stamps Inspirations Magazine along with hundreds of other beautiful projects created by the Whimsy Design Teams and you, our fellow crafters. For a peek at the free online issues click here.

Hot Holiday with Kenny K

Happy New Year to all of my lovely and inspiring followers and my family as well. I certainly hope your Holiday was a safe and happy one? The trip to Frankenmuth with my mom was really wonderful and my family enjoyed 3 entire days of swimming, dancing, shopping, eating and so much more! We even brought our little tree from home and lit it up in our little corner table where we opened our gifts together and then played skipbo and crazy eights for hours!

On to the project for today . . . I wanted to broadcast this lovely little Kenny K hottie with pizzaz, spots, dots and popping colors! You can find her in the free online edition of the issue #10 Whimsy Stamps Inspirations Magazine by clicking below along with tons of other beautiful creations using the beautiful Whimsy rubber images. Enjoy!
