Whimsy Stamps and Wee Stamps April release with sample

Hey everybody!!

You may have already noticed but, Whimsy Stamps has released some brand new Rubber Stamps & Stamp Sets, Whimsy Shapeology Dies, Shape EZ by TLC templates and Whimsy Designer Paper 6x6 packs. These new goodies are available to buy right now from the Whimsy Stamps store along with all your Whimsy favourites. There are also two, no actually three new Wee Stamps' images, one single (Rosetta) and one set (Flower Fairies), that have been released as rubber stamps and also as digital images. There have already been two blog hops by the Whimsy Stamps team and two gorgeous showcase days by the Wee Stamps team on the Wee Stamps blog HERE. Today I am part of the blog hop by Whimsy Stamps with a sample created with one of those images.

You may have noticed that Whimsy Stamps has changed her rubber release schedule this month. We are now hosting a 3-day new release event where we have a Sneak Peek Blog Hop on the day before the release (the day before yesterday), a Release Day Blog Hop on release day (yesterday), and finally a Review Day Blog Hop the day after the release (today).

Each 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 posts listed below my sample by 12.00PM EST tomorrow. All winners will be announced on the Whimsy blog on Friday (26 April).

Here is my sample for today's blog hop using one of the adorable newly release Flower Fairies by Wee Stamps (availabe as a rubber stamp set HERE and as a digital image set HERE):

Isn't she just adorable? The sentiment is part of the set she comes with. the papers I have used are pink cardstock, kraft cardstock and Maja Design Vintage Spring Collection (both the large 12x12 sheets and the 6x6 paper pad have been used). The adorable flowers that I thought matched both the image and the designpaper perfectly are Wild Orchid Crafts white Sweetheart Blossoms. The leaves are from a McGill punch.

The project I created was actually a sliderbox that I created using THIS tutorial by Beate Johns, Beate used a different Spellbinder die though so I had to alter the sizes somewhat. My hidden tag reads "Fijne Moederdag" which means "Happy Mothers-day" in Dutch, I'm going to use this little box to give my mum in law a mothers-day present.

A close up of the adorable little fairy from the Flower Fairies set. As always colored with Copic Markers and completely 3D paper pieced.

And the little pieces she was made of.
