Whimsy Stamps December Digital Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to Whimsy Stamps
first O' the month digi-blog hop!!!
If you've arrived from the
positively talented Heike's blog
you are well on your way through the hop,
if you've just popped by for a visit,
you may want to head on over to the
Whimsy Stamps Inspiration Blog
to start at the beginning.


I've used a sentiment from Ann's new Christmas Sentiments set,
along with a micey nice new release from Katie Sowa called Mousy Cheer. Can you tell I got a new toy!??!?!?! I am so excited to open up my home to a Cuttlebug, woopie!!! I get nervous with larger purchases, a lot of "what if's" and "buts" go into making decisions like this, but after a good year of thinking about it, I did it!! I got a Cuttlebug!! And felt the need to use every folder and die I now proudly own on this one card, lol!! I used the sketch from Create4fun while crafting this.



There is a lot of fun stuff happening at Whimsy Stamps lately, there are loads of new sentiments from Ann Vento, Crissy Armstrong has released several new adorable images, as well as several PRE-COLOURED images (point, click, done!! good for this time of year!!!), Melissa Jenkins shares lots of digis throughout the month with us, but today, she is releasing PRE-COLOURED images as well, very nice!!! Katie has designed some really cute designs that are releasing today as well, so do pop by Whimsy Stamps and check it out!! Plus, if the chisme is correct, Whimsy stamps will be revealing some new rubber stamps designs in the very near future, hot dog!!


Now it is time for you to hop along
and see what the talented Pattie
has in store for you!!

hugs, stephanne

Nobody does the vintage quite like you! Seriously. I'm just staring and drooling and itching to touch...and you have cut out these mice with their teeny tails, you madwoman!! lol
Oh, and the stuff I use for snow I got here. It's not too chunky, feels like sugar and looks gorgeous. AND it's not too dear either!!
