LITTLE PRINCESS

Recently I hosted a DT Call, looking for some talented designers to join our family of designers. I received over 50 applications for our DT! It was truly a very difficult process to narrow it down to only 5 new designers to join our existing DT. Each one of our applicants were notified a couple of weeks ago via email with my final decision. Thank you to all of you who kindly submitted your work for consideration.

Welcome to our NEW Summer Design Team!

I'm very proud to introduce to you our 2013 Summer Design Team! We have FIVE NEW designers joining our DT, so now our DT has 11 designers! 

A warm welcome to our new DT members: Theresa Harris (aka The Scrapbooking Queen), Audrey Emst (aka Hippieaud), Cathy Santie, Karen Hanson and Marcee Rogers.

I'm so happy to welcome back for another DT season: Kathy Curry, Lesa Smaligo, Lesley Crogham, Marsha Sanderlin, Melissa Oesters and Suzanne Bier.

I want to share my summer bookmark with you today.  Will you be reading by the pool or beach this summer?  Be sure to mark your pages in style with this super cute image, Amelie to the Beach bookmark. 

This book mark is quick and easy to create.  I used paper paper scraps to create it with a  few left over stickers for flat embellishments.   Perfect project for this weekend and don't stop with one, make a few.  The Copic markers I used are: 

Happy Crafting!!

Spring Boy and Girl

Hi, I'm Marsha and I'm a design team member for the Whimsy and Stars Studio blog.   I have this super cute image to share with you today, Spring Boy and Girl.   I actually used a summer color palette instead of a spring one - we missed spring this year and launched right into summer!

I used this fabulous sketch from Mojo Monday and went a little crazy using my Copic markers.  I love colors that "pop"!  I also love texture and lots of layers. 

Whimsy and Stars is having a blog hop on June 18th to introduce a new digital stamp release, the DT showcase and the introduction of our Summer DT additions.  We are so excited to share our creations and have you meet the new design team members!

Don't forget to go to the Whimsy and Stars Stamping blog and enter the June freebie challenge!  You can get all the details here.  Can't wait to see what you create!

Blessings,

Sunflower Teapot {A Card by Lesley}

Welcome to the Whimsy and Stars Studio stamping blog! Lesley here! I am a design team member for Whimsy and Stars Studio and I am super excited to share a card I made with Mabelle's adorable "Sunflower Teapot" Stamp set. 

<<<<<Isn't this image so sweet? 

I used a fun sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches for my card. 

The image is coloured with Copics and I added some pearls to the bottom of my card.

I used some light tan colours for the center of each sunflower and kept the rest of my design simple. I love that little bumble bee! 

Thank you for stopping by today!!! And be sure to link up a project with one of Mabelle's freebie images. CLICK HERE for all the information!! We can't wait to see what you create!
