I have used black card stock for the base and then used the Basic Border Trio dies to cur the right edge of the white layer of card stock. I used the other two borders in the Basic Border Trio set to cut the green and aqua DP strips on the left. The sentiment is from the Up, Up, and Away Additions stamps and the balloons were created with stamps from the Up, Up, and Away set and cut with the Up, Up, and Away die set. <br />

I have used the color combo from our new ShowCASe Your Style challenge of Teal, Green, Black, and White. The card base is black card stock, then a layer of green DP, a layer of white card stock stamped with the Happy Birthday sentiments and star stamps from Birthday Balloon. The top layer is white card stock cut with a circle die and stitched edges using the Stitched Border Trio dies. I have sandwiched sequins in between a couple of layers of acetate and then used foam tape to pop the top layer over the base layers. <br />
<br />

<br />
Hello welcome to our friendship hop in honor of <a href="http://semsee.blogspot.com/">Simonne</a>!<br />
<br />
Simonne has been a part of the Whimsy family for many years and today we wanted to share our love with her and show her how special she is to us. Thank you for everything you do for all of us at Whimsy, Simonne!<br />
<br />
For those of you who don't know Simonne allow me to share a bit about her. Not only is she a super talented card maker, skilled Copic colorer, and brilliant Whimsy illustrator, she is also an amazing person. I have had the pleasure of working with Simonne over the years and have developed a true friendship with her. It always amazes me how attached we become to our crafty friends, some of whom we have never actually met in person. I could not imagine my days without having her to chat with and laugh with and just share day to day stuff with. She always makes me smile!<br />
<br />
Our DT have come together today to share creations made especially for Simonne. We hope you will hop along with us and check out the fun cards and personal messages to Simonne. And we might even have a little treat to give away for one or two participants also! So be sure to leave comments on all the DT blogs along the way and we will draw 2 random winners who will be given one of our Clearly Whimsy Stamps sets designed by Simonne herself!<br />
<br />
For my card today, I have used the stamp sets <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=81_82&products_id=3164">Happy Hello</a> and <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=81_82&products_id=3264">Happy Everything</a> along with the <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=3375">Stitched Border Trio Dies</a> and <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=3086">Sweet Large Word Die</a>.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I created the background using Memento inks in a rainbow of colors and the 2 circle burst stamps from Happy Everything. Then I used more rainbow colors of ink and smeared those on a scrap paper and then cut the sweet with the Sweet Large Word Die. I've embellished with some red twine and used foam tape to add dimension to the top layer. The friend word is from Happy Hello.<br />
<br />
Thanks so much for stopping by. Simonne, we love ya!<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
My card uses some black and white card stock. And I used some gold and silver ink to create the edging on two of my matte pieces of white cardstock. I have used the Clearly Whimsy Stamps products <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=81_82&products_id=3477" target="_blank">Sparkle & Shine stamp set</a>, <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=81_82&products_id=3472" target="_blank">Christmas Greetings stamp set</a> and<a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=3480" target="_blank"> Christmas large word die.</a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I cut the Christmas word out of glitter American Crafts paper and all the Christmas ornament bulbs have been stamped with gold and silver Memento Brilliance Inks. </div>

One of the cards I have for today uses the new <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=81_82&products_id=3476">Scandi Christmas</a> stamps and the <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=3480">Christmas Large Word Die</a>.<br />

I used memento inks to create the border and then stamped the snowflakes using Versamark ink. This was a very quick and easy card to make. Lots of possibilities with these new Christmas sets. The Christmas word was created with the die and Big Shot, then glued in place. The cardstock is all SU!. <br />
<br />
My second card uses <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=81_82&products_id=3472">Christmas Greetings</a> and the <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=3480">Christmas Large Word Die</a> as well as the <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=3375">Stitched Border Trio die set</a>. And this card fits the our theme at <a href="http://showcasechallenge.blogspot.com/">ShowCASe Your Style</a> challenges.<br />

<br />
I used red and white SU! cardstock and a piece of vellum. The sentiment was stamped in black ink and the snowflakes in Versamark ink and then heat embossed with silver powder. I also used some glue and super fine silver glitter to shine up my edges on the top layer. The Christmas Word die cut was made using the Christmas word die and the Big Shot, then glued in place. <br />

The card I made uses <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=81_82&products_id=3477">Sparkle and Shine</a>. I went with non traditional holiday colors for this one. The striped paper is actually ink and our <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=81_82&products_id=3373">Basic Backgrounds and Borders</a> stamp set. The card stock is Whisper White from SU and I stamped the sentiment with Memento Ink. There is also a layer of vellum under the stamped layer of paper.<br />

<br />
After stamping the sentiment, I stamped again with Versamark and then used heat and stick powder and glitter to create some shimmer. It's hard to see in the photo but there are also some snowflakes stamped and then glittered up as well. I finished off this card with some ribbons, twine, gems, and sequins. Here's a close up.<br />

For my card I have use the <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=81_82&products_id=3475">Penguin Fun stamps</a> and <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=3484">dies</a> to create a shaker card. I also used the <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=3375">Stitched Border Trio</a> to create the stitched effect on the edges of the card.<br />

I have created a white on white card and accented with teal blue and purple. The shaker card was created with circle dies, acetate, and some chunky glitter. I stamped the penguin and colored his feet with a marker. Then stamped the hat onto a colored piece of designer paper and then used the coordinating die to cut it out. Here is a close up of the shaker.<br />

Here are the two cards I made with the new Clearly Whimsy Stamps and Shapeology Metal Crafting die products released this week! These new products are a lot of fun to work with.

For my hop cards, I have used the Time for Tea stamp set and the Time for Tea Die Set.<br />

This card was very quick and easy to put together. I used some ribbon scraps and randomly glued those to my card base which is a Kraft card from Stampin' Up. Then I stamped the sentiment and frame using Memento Ink on white card. Then used the die from the Time for Tea Dies to cut the shape. Then used foam tape to glue that over the ribbons.<br />
<br />
And this card....<br />

I used the sketch from <a href="http://thepaperplayers.blogspot.com/2014/06/paper-players-challenge-201-sketch-from.html">The Paper Players</a> challenge with some designer paper and ribbons. Then I stamped the images with Memento ink and cut with the Time for Tea die set. I added small liquid pearl accents on the sentiment cut outs. <br />
<br />
Thanks so much for stopping by today and this week for our new Clearly Whimsy Stamps release! <br />

Both of these cards were stamped using various Memento inks. I created these for my kids to give to their teachers at the end of the school year. These stamps are perfect for all those school related projects!<br />

<br />
For my first card, I used the stamp set Happy Everything and the <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=3272">Party Time Die set</a>. This stamp set has lots of options for creating your cards and the dies coordinate perfectly.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPtcnoXBrSjfq_ZJnH2oMD5KjXDmsd_hAGIzc1zKpqk0rfemu7yuNKFjBppYoKP0a9HbiPsf9loN-LjHY4wxE-HU5I9sb2dqxjskdp-TcJIuY6s_0p64x9aFR87cnAehxu9yU0a9AAUxU/s1600/denise+happy+everything_wm.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPtcnoXBrSjfq_ZJnH2oMD5KjXDmsd_hAGIzc1zKpqk0rfemu7yuNKFjBppYoKP0a9HbiPsf9loN-LjHY4wxE-HU5I9sb2dqxjskdp-TcJIuY6s_0p64x9aFR87cnAehxu9yU0a9AAUxU/s1600/denise+happy+everything_wm.jpeg" height="640" width="514" /></a></div>
<br />
I stamped the celebrate word stamp using Memento Lady Bug, Lilac Posies, and Tangelo in alternating rows. Then I stamped the balloons and used the dies to cut out two of the stamps and used <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=advanced_search_result&search_in_description=1&keyword=olba">Olba glue</a> to pop those up. Then I stamped the balloon strings.<br />
<br />
This card fits the challenge at <a href="http://cleanandsimpleonsunday.blogspot.com/2014/06/challenge-36-birthday.html">CAS Sunday</a> of Birthdays. <br />
<br />
And for this card I have used the Distressed Background and Ink Splats along with the already released stamp set <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=81_82&products_id=3164">Happy Hello</a>. The sentiment is from a new set that will be revealed tomorrow. ;)<br />

<br />
Again, I have used Memento inks, this time in the Tuxedo Black, Bahama Blue, Pear Tart, and Dandelion colors. I've randomly stamped the circles, stars, and the background images to create this fun card for my son's 5th grade graduation. <br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Welcome to Day 2 of our March rubber and die release!</b></span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
We
are releasing a fabulous selection of new rubber stamps, clear stamps,
shapeology dies and papers this month. Today the Whimsy DT is holding a
blog hop to <u>share sneak peeks of some of the brand new <b>Sentiment Sets</b> and <b>Shapeology Dies</b></u>. The entire new release will be available to buy from the <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/" target="_blank">Whimsy Stamps store</a> on WEDNESDAY! Pssst...I have a secret, if you pop to the <a href="http://whimsystamps.com/">Whimsy store</a> now, you can buy the new release today!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We have hidden <b>FOUR prizes</b>
of 2 new release rubber stamps somewhere on the DT’s blogs throughout
the 5-day release event. As the location of the prizes are secret, be
sure to <u>leave a comment on ALL the stops on each daily blog hop</u>
to maximize your chance of winning! We will draw the lucky winners over
the weekend and announce them here on the Whimsy blog on Monday (March
24th).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I created a card today using the new <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=3114">Build a Banner Die set</a> and Clearly Whimsy Stamps <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=81_82&products_id=3081">Sweet as Candy Sentiments set </a>- created by Simonne Clay of SC Design.

<div style="text-align: center;">
I used white card stock as the base and then used the banner die set and cut out the banners with my Big Shot. The papers are Bo Bunny. I glued the banners to a piece of Lilac Twine and then added some button accents on the ends. The sentiments were stamps with Memento ink in coordinating colors.</div>

I used white card stock for the base and stamped the birthday wishes sentiment in Tuxedo Black Memento ink.

Hi everyone and welcome to our
<span style="color: magenta; font-size: x-large;"><b>Circle of Friends blog hop</b></span>
especially for our dear DT member and friend
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://bevscrafts.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Bev Rochester</a></span></b></div>
<br />
Unfortunately, Bev has had to take a little break from crafting over the past few months due to ill health. We are missing her here at <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/" target="_blank">Whimsy</a> and want to let her know that we are thinking about her and wishing her a speedy recovery.
Even though the Whimsy family is scattered all around the world, we have come together as a circle of friends to show Bev our love and support by each making her a card.
Although this hop is for Bev, we do hope you will hop along with us to support our wonderful teammate and friend.<br />
<br />
If you arrived here from <a href="http://handmadebytlc.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Tammy Louise's Blog</b></span></a>, then you are in the right place!

For my creation, I have a card using one of the Whimsy Prints precolored and die cut images from the set <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=57&products_id=2320">Love and Friendship</a>. I have not had much time for crafting lately and my coloring skills have suffered, so it was great to be able to use one of these beautifully precolored images. All the Elisabeth Bell Whimsy Prints are colored by the super talented Simonne Clay! I also used some <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=31&products_id=2423">Designer Grunge 6x6 papers</a> and the <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=1265">Elegant Butterflies Dies</a>, <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=1863">Double Scallop Doily Die</a>, <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=1521">Country Heart Die</a>, and <a href="http://www.whimsystamps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=1336">Vines Die Set</a>, all available from <a href="http://whimsystamps.com/">Whimsy Stamps</a>.<br />

<br />
In October, <b>Whimsy Stamps</b> announced the release of a BRAND NEW Whimsy Stamps product line - the <a href="http://whimsystamps.com/store/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=57" target="_blank"><b>Whimsy Prints Collection</b></a>.
The <a href="http://whimsystamps.com/store/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=57" target="_blank"><b>Whimsy Prints Collection</b></a> are beautiful sets of hand-colored images which have been digitally reproduced, printed, and die-cut into various shapes. <a href="http://whimsystamps.com/store/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=57" target="_blank">Whimsy Prints</a> are printed on 100lb premium coated paper and professionally die-cut leaving smooth edges. Each pack contains 12 die-cut prints (3 sets of 4 images).<br />
<br />
The <i>Crissy Armstrong prints</i> are lovingly hand-colored by <b><a href="http://crissysartnheart.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Crissy Armstrong</a></b> herself:

<br />
The <i>Elisabeth Bell prints</i> have been hand-colored by our talented Senior Designer <b><a href="http://semsee.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Simonne Clay</a></b>:

<br />
<br />
<a href="http://whimsystamps.com/store/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=57" target="_blank">Whimsy Prints Collection</a> are very straight forward and easy to use. They can be attached directly to your project with glue or double sided tape. Use them as is or cut to fit the needs of your project. One of the benefits of using <a href="http://whimsystamps.com/store/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=57" target="_blank">Whimsy Prints</a> is to cut back on the amount of time needed to hand color images. To summarize, it is a great way to make quick projects when time is of the essence! These are also wonderful for beginner crafters and kid projects.<br />
<br />
If you joined us for our last 2 releases, you may have seen some of the beautiful projects our DT and Special Guests have created using these prints. Today we are showcasing these gorgeous <a href="http://whimsystamps.com/store/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=57" target="_blank">Whimsy Prints</a> with a special BLOG HOP! In addition to our regular Special Guests, we are delighted to welcome both Crissy Armstrong and Elisabeth Bell who are joining us for this hop!<br />
<br />
The hop starts today (Friday November 30th at 12.00PM EST) and ends on <b>Monday December 3rd</b> at 12.00PM EST.
For this hop we have 4 different candy stops where you can enter to win a set of Whimsy Prints. The location of these candy stops is a secret, so if you haven't found them, please go back to the beginning and start hopping!<br />
<br />
If you would like to hop along with us today and haven’t arrived from the <a href="http://debbieeastmancardsimake.blogspot.com/">Debbie's blog</a>, please <a href="http://bevscrafts.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><b>CLICK HERE</b></a> to return to the beginning of the hop at <a href="http://bevscrafts.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><b>Bev's blog</b></a>.<br />
<br />
For my prints project, I used the <a href="http://whimsystamps.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=57&products_id=2134">Holiday Wishes set</a> and the square Santa and Teddy die cut. I have used all 3 from the pack and did a decoupaged 3D image.<br />
<br />

<br />
The base of my card is Stampin' Up! chocolate card stock with vanilla layered with My Minds Eye Lost and Found Christmas papers. I have distressed the edges with scissors. The image was glue using glue dots to give the 3D effect. I also add some stickles for glittery accents. I've embellished with flowers, ribbons, and the <a href="http://whimsystamps.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=2020">Star Spangled Tag Die</a>, <a href="http://whimsystamps.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=2175">Snowflake Border Die</a>, and <a href="http://whimsystamps.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=1336">Vines Die</a> all from Whimsy. <br />
<br />
Here is a close up of the decoupaged effect...<br />

Then added some SU! Cherry Cobbler and Pink Pirouette papers with My Mind's Eye Lost and Found Two. The image was colored with Copics and then cut with Oval Nesties. I've embellished with some ribbons and buttons and the new Picket Fence Die designed by Raindrop Echo Designs.<br />
