Hi everyone and welcome to the first sneak peek day of the
Clearly Whimsy Stamps January 2015 release...
Over the next 3 days we will reveal our *BRAND NEW* Clearly Whimsy Stamps release! We are releasing 6 new clear stamp sets and 8 coordinating die/die sets this week, and they will be available to buy from the Whimsy Stamps store TODAY and selected Whimsy Stamps retailers on Saturday!!
Today we are revealing the Birthday Balloon 3x4” stamp set together with its coordinating Birthday Balloon die, a standalone Birthday word die, Up Up and Away 4x6” stamp set and its companion Up Up and Away Sentiments 3x4" stamp set, together with a coordinating Up Up and Away die set and a Stitched Clouds die set. Hop on over to the Whimsy blog for more details.
To create my card, I started with a white card base, and die cut a bunch of Happy word dies with white CS. I then adhered them to the front of the card base, cutting off any areas that extended beyond the sides of the card. I then stamped part of the sentiment from Birthday Balloon onto mint CS in versamark ink before heat embossing with white powder. I then die cut the remainder of the sentiment from silver glitter paper, then adhered it to the mint CS strip. The end of the mint CS strip was trimmed into a banner shape, then adhered to the card front with pop dots. To finish up, I embellished with green enamel dots.
Here's a peek of the sets being previewed today on my blog:
