Hi Everybody,
Finally my first card for the new Whimsy Stamps rubber release. Today I'm showing you a card I made with the extremely cute Lovin' Turtle by Meljen's Designs. When I first saw this image I knew I had to use my red or pink fun flock on the hearts, I bought them together with the white fun flock but never got around to actually using any other color then white. Making this card was a lovely change to all the Christmas projects I've had lately:
Now that's some color for you :). The gorgeous papers are by Bo Bunny from an older line called Sweetie Pie. I had all these ribbons in a back that fitted perfectly with the papers... they must have been in a kit but I don't remember which one. Anyway... since all these cute ribbons fitted so perfectly I decided to use a couple of them, love how they look. The gorgeous white flowers are by Wild Orchid Crafts except for the small white ones, those are by Creative Treasures. The pearl heart is also from Wild Orchid Craft and the gorgeous shiny heart button that doesn't come accross as pretty as it is is from The Ribbon Girl. The sentiments are computer generated and then with a little help from my Stamp-a-ma-jig I stamped the blanc frame from the new Friendship Notables 2 by Raindrop Echo Designs over them. The sentiments were then cut using the new matching Notables 2 Die. The sentiments read "I'm Thinking about you" and "The power of thought" in Dutch, I send this card out to somebody who has been diagnosed with cancer and has a long difficult treatment and operation ahead. I'm hoping this card will lift her spirits. Here is a close up of the gorgeous turtle:
As always colored with my beloved Copic Markers and 3D paper pieced for extra dimension. As mentioned the hearts have been fluffed with Fun Flock and the pink shell has been given a coat of gorgeous Stickles.
Hope you like my card!! I'm working very hard to have another preview for you ready on Wednesday. In the meantime... if you leave a comment on my blog and the blogs of the other girls from the Whimsy team displaying samples today you might just win yourself a prize from this new release! The talented girls and boy you also want to be visiting and leaving some love today are:
Hope to see you guys back on Wednesday!!
