Hi everyone and happy Thursday :)

Welcome to the first sneak peek day of the Clearly Whimsy Stamps October 2014 release

Over the next 3 days we will reveal the new October 2014 Clearly Whimsy Stamps products. We are releasing 7 new clear stamp sets and 5 dies/die sets this week, and they will be available to buy from the Whimsy Stamps store today and selected Whimsy Stamps retailers on Saturday. 

This month we are thrilled to welcome Michelle Short and Lisa Henke as our Guest Designers. Welcome ladies! We are so happy that you are joining us for this release! 

Today we are revealing the Penguin Fun 4x6” stamp set and Tremendous Triangles 4x6” stamp set, together with the coordinating Penguin Fun die set and the Tremendous Triangles die set. Hop on over to the Whimsy blog for more details.

And here is my card made with Tremendous Triangles 4x6” stamp set, together with the coordinating Tremendous Triangles Die Set.

I also used a sentiment from the "Christmas Greetings" stamp set and the "Christmas Large Word Die" (*pssst* ... officially released on November 1st, but already available in the shop  )

The stitched "frame" around my focal panel was made with one of the dies from "Stitched Border Dies Trio" set  (not part of the October release, but already available in the store!)

PRIZE ALERT ... We have hidden a fabulous prize of a $15 GIFT CERTIFICATE at one of the stops on today’s hop!
