Stamp Something Digital

Me again!

I didn't think I would get to my Stamp Something card this week. I had some server issues with the Whimsy Stamps shop yesterday that needed quite a bit of attention, but I managed to get in some time last night and whipped up my card. The server seems to be back to normal at the moment, however we are having a couple glitches with the Contact Us form. The email will say sent, but then I don't get it. So if you need me or have a Whimsy question, feel free to contact me anytime at whimsystamps@gmail.com.

OK, so at Stamp Something this week we have another monthly digital challenge. The theme is quite simply to stamp something digital. You can use a digital image, digital papers, digital layouts for a scrapbook page, etc. We have wonderful sponsors this week with lots of fun prizes so there will be multiple winners drawn from this challenge.

I've used this sweet image called Jumprope from one of our sponsor's Phindy's Place. I've colored her with Copics and added some Stickle glitter accents. The papers are BG Koishi with purple and yellow card stock. I've embellished with ribbons, flowers, and a flower brads.

Thanks again for stopping by! Hope to see you on Monday for the new release at Whimsy Stamps! Some of our DT members will be sharing sneak peeks today and this weekend too. Be on the look out!

Happy Stamping,

Sketch Something with Dustin Pike

Morning all and happy Friday!

This has been a great week, our first real week of summer with sunshine every day! Hopefully it's here to stay! Hope you all have had a good week and are looking forward to the weekend.

Today is a new challenge on Stamp Something and we have a fabulous new sponsor too, Dustin Pike! If you don't know Dustin's work, you need to check out his site. He creates the cutest images of monkeys and dragons and now he has a holiday collection. All of his images are digital and available for download, some for a small fee and others are free! Dustin has generously donated some fun blog candy as well as a bunch of images for the design team to create with!

Our challenge to you this week is a sketch. I've actually created this one and kept it pretty simple. And as you'll be able to tell, it was my first attempt, not the greatest, but it works! Feel free to flip it, turn it, and embellish it up! We're looking forward to seeing your sketched somethings!

For my card this week, I used this super cute Bubble Dragon image from Dustin's collection and colored him with Copics. I also highlighted with Copic glitter pens in gold and clear. It's hard to see some of the glittered areas, but you can see the gold ones. I also used some Off Beat BasicGrey papers that reminded me of bubbles in the various patterns.

The cardstock is SU! Chocolate Chip, Old Olive and Baja Breeze. I embellished with SU! buttons and some grosgrain ribbons. I also paper pierced the edging around the image. One layer of Baja has been embossed with the bubbles folder and CB. I definitely have the bubbles theme going on in this one!

Thanks for popping by today! I'll see you all back here tomorrow for a fun event with Layers of Color stamps! Have a great day, happy stamping! :)

My First Digi-stamp!

Hi all!

Still away on vacation, but before I left I created this card using a digital image I received from the Doodle Palace! It's super cute and was lots of fun to color!

The papers are SU! from the free SAB pack. I colored the image with Copics and highlighted with a gel pen. The embellishments are buttons, hodgepodge hardware, and ribbons. The sentiment is SU! Short and Sweet and was punched using the word window punch.

Thanks for popping on over! Enjoy your day! Happy Stamping! :)
