From today until 23 November the Whimsy DT and Special Guests will be showcasing these fabulous new stamps and dies with a daily mini blog hop. Each mini blog hop has a new release prize hidden somewhere along the way and you will have 24hrs to enter each prize draw by leaving a comment on every blog listed for that day.

To be entered into today's mini 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 Inspirations blog after 12.00PM on 23 November.

Well, here is my sample for the release day hop:
The cute image is Bundled little snowboy by Meljen's Designs and decorated a paper bag with him that I filled with a bag of the yummy white candy (spekjes in Dutch) that you see in front of the bag. The poem is in Dutch and you'll find it on the third picture but it's inspired by a lot of different English poems I found on the net about snowman poo... I made my own Dutch variation. Here is a close up of the cute snowboy:
As always colored with Copics, stickled up and 3D paper pieced. The papers are from a 6x6 paper pad from Echo Park called Seasons Greetings. The brads I bought on the Dutch Krea Doe and they didn't have a brandname on them and the snowflakes are by Unique Hobby Products and I also bought those on the Krea Doe. The snowaccents are Aleene's Glitter Snow and the "furry accents" were again done with Fun Flock again Fun Flock. All the edges were distressed with Frayed Burlap Distress Ink and then stickled up with Platinum Stickles. Here is a close up of the handwritten "poem":
A free translation, around Christmas a little gesture, a bit of chocolate or candy. Or in this case, perhaps a bit strange, a bag of snowman poo. Sounds really stupid in English but in Dutch it makes sense and it rhymes. Like I said if you search for Snowman Poo on google you'll find a lot of different English poems.
I'll leave you with the details about the release and the blog hops!! Hope you liked my sneak peek. Have fun everybody!!
