Day Two - New Release at Whimsy Stamps ...and SWEET STUFF!!!

Hello, everyone and welcome to Day Two of the ...
Whimsy Stamps May rubber stamp & die release!

This week we are revealing the new May 2014 Whimsy Stamps products.  We are releasing a fabulous selection of new goodies this month, and the entire release is NOW available to buy from the Whimsy Stamps store and will be available from all good Whimsy Stamps retailers tomorrow, Wednesday (21st May).

PRIZE ALERT ... We have hidden FOUR prizes of 2 new release rubber stamps somewhere on the DT’s blogs throughout our 5-day release event this week. As the location of the prizes are secret, be sure to leave a comment on ALL the stops on each daily blog hop to maximize your chance of winning! We will draw the lucky winners over the weekend and announce them on the Whimsy blog next week.

Today we are excited to show you the brand new Dies and Sentiment Sets released this month. For a full reveal of these products, check out the Whimsy blog!

For today's project, I have used the NEW Butterfly Border, Butterfly Frame, and Fluttering By Sentiment Set. I have also used the darling New SWEET TEA image illustrated by Elisabeth Bell for Whimsy Stamps.

The base and all double matting are Bazzill and the DP is from the Vintage Spring Basics paper pad by Maja Designs. The image was colored with Copics adding a touch of Glossy Accents for the sippy cup and drop of tea, Prisma Glitter for the butterfly, Star Dust Stickles for the lace, and the dress is covered with clear Wink of Stella. After coloring the dress I used blending solution on a ribbed cloth to give the dress a look of a striped voile. The beautiful border at the top was made with the NEW Butterfly Border. I first cut the border out in lavender and then in white...covering the white one with Prisma Glitter and cutting the individual butterflies out. After placing the rhinestones on each butterfly and shaping them, they were glued atop the lavender border. Hopefully you can see the dimension in the picture below.

For the horizontal I used a lavender grosgrain ribbon tied into a double flat bow to anchor a small organza butterfly from my stash. Finally the flowers are all from Wild Orchid Crafts: Lilies, Hip Rosebuds, Cottage Rose, and Gypsophilia Stems. 

For the inside panel I used the NEW Butterfly Frame and a sentiment from the NEW Fluttering By Sentiment Set, adding a few Self-Adhesive Rhinestones from WOC.

So now it's time for you to continue today's hop! Don’t forget to leave a comment at every stop  to be entered into the draws to win some new release rubber:
