Whimsy Stamps & ThermOWeb Collaboration

Hello friends! I'm super excited that Whimsy Stamps and ThermOWeb have teamed up this week for a fun collaboration. Be sure to visit both blogs all week long for a ton of creative ideas and to win some great prizes.

For my first card today, I started by die cutting the Lattice A2 die from some card stock to use as a stencil. I then added some Deco Foil Transfer Gel over top of my homemade stencil. I let this dry for a couple of hours and then I used the Poppin' Pink Enamel Sheets to create my background. These enamel sheets are so much fun to work with. You can't tell in the photo but the background has this raised enamel finish. Think of your enamel dots in your stash - very similar to this.

I then die cut this panel with one of the dies from the Rounded Rectangles die collection.

I stamped and cut out the large butterfly from the beautiful Butterflies set. I added it to my background panel and then added a sentiment strip with some foam tape.

For my second card, I started by stamping my card base directly with the Scratchy Plaid Background stamp. I love the fun texture this gives.

I then decided to cut some strips of white card stock which I then added some of the Poppin' Pink Glitz Glitter Gel over top of. I let these dry and then added them to a piece of grey card stock at an angle. I trimmed up the sides and then stamped my sentiment which is the same one I used above.

This panel was popped up with foam tape for added dimension.

My last card features the same design as my first card except this time, I used the Poppin' Pink Glitz Glitter Gel again through my homemade stencil using the Lattice A2 die.

I stamped the same large butterfly from the Butterflies set, trimmed it out and colored it with some bright Copic markers. Again, I stamped the same sentiment as I used on the other cards and popped it up with some foam tape.

Each company is giving away two $25 gift certificates. One on the Whimsy Blog and one on the Therm O Web blog. To increase your changes of winning, leave a comment on each of the collaboration posts on both blogs. While I welcome your comments here, they need to be made on store blogs for your chance to win.

I hope you've been inspired. Crafty hugs! ~ Alanna
