Clearly Whimsy Stamps January Release Sneak Peek Day #1

Hi everyone happy Thursday :)

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.






And here is my sample card for today :)

The stamp set used in my sample is the adorable "Birthday Balloon" stamp set and I also used the "Birthday Large Word" die. Oh how I love those large word dies from Clearly Whimsy Stamps.

And here is how I did my simple card: I repeatedly stamped the "happy" word with pink and orange Radiant Neon inks on a white panel.
Then I die cut the "Birthday" word several times from white cardstock. I colored one of the cut out words with blue Radiant Neon inks and then made a stack from the die cut words with the blue one on top. 

I have seen the amazing Jennifer McGuire teaching this technique of using die cuts and wanted to try it since I saw it the first time, but never did. Now that I finally managed to try it here on this card with the beautiful "Birthday Large Word" die, I really like the result a lot! :)


We are running a special promotion until Sunday 18th January, and have discounted everything in this release by 10%!! Whimsy Stamps also offers FREE SHIPPING for US orders over $75.
