Whimsy Sneak Peek + Video

Happy Monday! I have a new Whimsy card and video to share with you today, featuring new products from Whimsy’s February 2016 release. So many fun new products coming this month!

I combined a lot of the new Whimsy February release products together to create my card. The new Up, Up and Away Clear set comes with this really cool 3 ray stamp that was perfect for created this neat background. I used 3 different ink colors to create an almost ombre effect. I layered some vellum over top to mute the colors and wee bit and also so that I could emboss this gorgeous sentiment with some white embossing powder.  I also added a pieceof white felt that I cut out using one of the dies in the Landscape trio set from Whimsy. I love, love this set and use if often.

I love this new Elephant image. It is such a great size for an A2 sized card. I wanted to color it up with Prismacolor pencils instead of my usual Copic Markers. I use my Prismacolor pencils for a lot of my background coloring but it has been a while since I colored an entire image with them. It was a lot of fun and I love the soft blended effect that I was able to achieve.

Here’s the video sharing my coloration process when using Prismacolor pencils. You can see it HERE on my YouTube channel if you prefer seeing it there.



Here are a couple more shots of my card. You will find all the supplies listed below.
