Wee Stamps - Rudolph @ Whimsy Stamps

Hello to all my followers new and old and I hope you all had a very happy Christmas and New Year's holiday. It's my last day at home today (though I was also in work between Christmas and New Year's), I go back to work tomorrow.

Today is a special day though, I'm sure the more eagle eyed of my regular followers have already spotted the Whimsy Stamps DT badge on my side bar, but today is my first official post for them as part of the Design Team.

As things have calmed down a little the last few weeks, a guest spot has finished and I've managed to organise my time a little better, it's given me a little time to take up an offer from the super sweet Denise of Whimsy Stamps.
I've guested for them a couple of times before, and she has offered me a DT spot previously, but unfortunately I just had too much going on to take it on then, so I'm super happy to be able to join the team now. This will initially be for 6 months from January to June, so I hope you will enjoy seeing all my Whimsy makes here.

To kick off my first post I'm sharing a Christmas card (yes, yes I know, but I was late making them so I'm late sharing them lol and anyway, it's never too early to start on this years right?!), made with Wee Stamps adorable little Rudolph.

I have to admit that I just fell in love with this little guy as soon as I saw him, I mean, how could you not? Isn't he cute?



I coloured him with my distress ink markers to match these pretty Kaisercraft papers - Silver Bells.

Colours used: Vintage Photo, Tea Dye, Rusty Hinge, Hickory Smoke. Forest Moss, Antique Linen, Festive Berries, Walnut Stain, Tumbled Glass.

I added some Glamour Dust to the bauble and bead, (I think this is actually a berry, but I wanted a little more sparkle on my image).


I added some beautiful embellishments from The Ribbon Girl, the sentiment is from the paper pack.


I don't have a photo of the inside of the card this time as I'd already written it out before I took photos duh!

  3. Congratulations on your new DT appointment Linda, looking forward to some Whimsy goodness from you. This little Rudolph character is beyond adorable and your colouring of him is so delicate and beautiful. I just love the papers too with their glittery baubles shining in the background. Hope you've had a fabulous Christmas and New Year, sorry it's work for you tomorrow but as it's a short week perhaps it won't be so bad.
    Take care,
    Lorraine
