Splash In A Fish Bowl!

Congratulations to the winners of our last challenge at Whimsy Stamps Inspirations! We are now onto our next challenge and this week the challenge is 'anything but square'. I have made a fish bowl card and I have used some of the cute fish images designed by Crissy Armstrong for Whimsy Stamps; Gertie and Gunther. I coloured my fishies with copics then covered them with glitter. My fish bowl and other elements were cut out using my Cricut.

White On White!

We are now onto a new challenge at Whimsy Stamps Inspirations and our theme this week is "white on white". For my card I have used a gorgoeus peacock image from Moon Cookie Gallery called "pretty peacock" available at Whimsy Stamps. I have coloured him with copics and added spicas and glossy accents. My sweet stamp sentiment is from Whimsy Stamps as well, and I cut it out with the matching die (I just adore these stamp sets!).

Little Heart!

Here is a card I have made featuring one of the sweet stamps from Gorjuss Girls called 'little heart'. I just love this range of stamps! I have paper pieced her dress and hair bow (first time I have tried this technique and I love it!) and coloured the rest of her with copics and added some glossy accents. My glittery swirl is a Cheery Lynn die called 'fanciful flourish' and I added some sequins and bling to it.
