Hello friends! Back with you today to share another image from the November brand new digital release from Whimsy Stamps! Check it out:

These seals by Crissy Armstrong have stolen my heart! I had to create with this Seal On Ice digital image too and share it with you today!

I started with my image by coloring it up with the following Copic marker colors:

seal: C5, C3, C1, C0 W1, W0, R00 – Hat/scarf: BG49, BG45, E53, E51, E50

I fussy cut him/her out and went along the edges with a black Copic friendly marker.

For the card design, I found some matching cardstock to go with the seal’s outfit and used it as the 5×5 Top folding card base as well as a mat layer behind the image panel. I took the Whimsy Stamps Pierced Border Trio Dies to cut some pieces for the snow with some glitter paper. I put one strip at the bottom of the card base and another on the bottom of the woodgrain paper I’ve used to place the seal on.

Before adding the seal to the snow border with foam tape, I took the Whimsy Stamps Snow Flurry clear stamp set and stamped some of the snowflakes with pink ink over the woodgrain paper. I added this layered panel onto a piece of the new digital papers this month called Christmas Roses & Snowflakes which I’ve cut out with a square stitched die along with the woodgrain paper. I took a sentiment from the Whimsy Stamps Holiday Mini Sentiments clear set and white heat embossed it and cut it out with a portion of the square stitched die as well and attached it to the design.

I’ve finished it off by adding a bow to the corner of the woodgrain paper panel with some clear sparkly ribbon and added another one of those snowflake gems to the center of it!

Here’s closer look at the coloring details. Isn’t this a cutie?! I love the feminine look to it by adding in the pink snowflake digital papers and sparkly ribbon.

I hope you’ve enjoyed seeing my creations with the newly released images this month from Whimsy Stamps! Be sure to check out more inspiration on the Whimsy Stamps Inspirations Blog and Facebook Group too!
