Hippo Beach Fun | Mini Release | Whimsy Stamps

Hello Crafty Friends and Happy May!

Today Whimsy Stamps has a new Mini Release that's available now! 

Here's a look at what the design team has created!

For my card today I'll be featuring the new Hippo Fun stamp set, the super pretty 6x6 Rainbow Paper Pack and the Shaker Maker Banner Die Set!

I have four clean and simple cards that were so simple to create! I just love the way they look on the Rainbow paper!

I began my cards by trimming #100 white cardstock to create four top folding card bases, three portrait and one landscape. The one landscape card I just wanted the paper positioned a certain way that I thought looked prettier. Then I used the largest die from the Wonky Stitched Rectangle Die to die cut four rectangles from the rainbow paper and then used the smallest die from the Shaker Maker Banner Die Set and die cut four banners also from the rainbow paper.

 Next I stamped all the images with Copic safe black ink onto #80 Neenah Solar White cardstock. I ran those images through my Brother Scan n Cut and then colored them all with Copic markers.

I then stamped all of the banners with fun sentiments that I thought went with images and popped them up with foam tape and adhered one to the top left of each card panel. Then I used liquid glue to adhere each of the hippos in place. I used strips of black cardstock to heat emboss another sentiment to use on each card. I popped those up with foam tape and place them under each image.

And to finish my cards I added white highlights with a Gelly Roll pen, shimmer with a Nuvo Shimmer pen, and acrylic bubbles around the card. 

Thank you for stopping by today

and have a great day!
