Arrrgh! Talk Like a Pirate Treasure Hunt

By on September 18, 2024 in Paper Crafting

Arrrgh! Today is Talk Like a Pirate day and we are celebrating with a TREASURE Hunt at Whimsy Stamps!

I have a card to share and I dare you to find the hidden icon as a part of your TREASURE to collect! (visit the Whimsy Stamps & Inspiration Facebook Page for the full details of how to collect all the icons)

I usually add a touch of red to my pirate cards, but today I kept it fairly neutral with a touch of gold! I used the TREASURE Map die with coordinating TREASURE Map stamps, Arggh die, and the Spiders & Web die set. The little pirate mouse is from last years Whimsy STAMPtember collab stamp set! (no longer available)

For the sentiment, I added the Harlequin stencil with black glitter paste over gray paper. Then I die cut the word from that once it was completely dry. I think it adds a fun texture and design to the word!

The “Gimme Candy” sentiment is from this Monsters Halloween set.

I hope you can find the TREASURE for your hunt and head back to the Whimsy Stamps & Inspiration Facebook page for further instruction.

I’m often asked what supplies I use to make my cards and projects, so I’ve put together a list using affiliate links when possible. If you make a purchase with these links I may receive a small commission. These help me to keep up with blog costs and continue bringing you fun projects. Thank you so much for your support!

Hello! Today I’m sharing FOUR Panda cards in my video. I love these little guys from the Panda Get Well stamp set from Whimsy Stamps. There are some get well images, but also others that can be used for other themes.

Sometimes you just want to make a quick card, right? So I love these for that. You can add as much or as little as you want and it always comes out great!

Mini Valentine Shaker Notes
By  on February 13, 2024  in Holidays, Paper Crafting, Valentines   

	

	    

Hello! It’s an exciting day for me to share some Mini Valentine Shaker Notes…these are little note card sized shakers that are oh-so-sweet. I hope you enjoy!





Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:













These note cards measure 3.5″ x 4.25″ so they are a nice little size to fit into a lunch bag or a briefcase! (Wink*) I love how easy they are to build up with the polaroid die from Whimsy Stamps. I will show you in the video how to make the “walls” to keep the shaker bits inside the shaker, and how to add the acetate topper.





I used a variety of stamps and dies to decorate the fronts of each card, all images that I LOVE!

This Polaroid Die fits a slimline card, and for the mini cards I cut it apart to build up the shakers. It is also a cute design to make a slimline card, so I have included a sample of that here:






		
		
			
			
		
	





I hope you enjoyed these projects today! I wish you a very happy Valentine’s Day (aka Hugs Day!) filled with love. See you soon with more cards!

Foiling and Angry Birds

Hello! Happy New Year! I’m back with my first video and card share of the New Year. I hope your holidays were delightful and not nearly as cold as it is for these Angry Birds cards I am sharing today.





Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:














		
		
			
			
		
	





For these cards, I started with some Toner Card fronts from Whimsy Stamps. I used some aqua DecoFoil to foil this snowflake background…then I saved the leftover foil to make the second card background.






		
		
			
			
		
	





I think these birds are so funny (but don’t they look cold…brrr)! There is another fun image in this stamp set also, so go and check it out. I have the supplies listed below.

I hope you enjoyed the foiling and these card projects today! It’s been chilly here, but not cold enough for snow (we rarely get snow here in Arizona). How about where you are? See you soon with more cards to share!
