Clearly Whimsy Stamps Release Week -- Day #1

Thursday, January 15, 2015

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.


For my first card, I used the new Up, up an away set and the Background Basics and Borders 2 set. I also used the already released thanks large word die and used the inlaid die cutting technique for this portion of the card.



For my second card, I used the super cute Birthday Balloon set and matching die to create a super CAS card.
