Waddle I do it's release day!

Wooot wooot it's NEW RELEASE day at Whimsie Doodles!!!
I'm so excited about the new winter images it was killing me all week not to share them!  I'm going to show you my favortie for the moment! Yep just the moment cause I'm working on new images and they are now my new favorite!!  But I still like this one!  The Muffin Tops are really popular right now and this little guy is the third in the series.  So that means you can interchange the muffin tops and bottoms with the each other.  That is if you have the other set.  LOL

Gifts on a sled

Hi all!  Well I'm off to New York today!  And I wanted to leave one more card for you from Whiff of Joy's winter collection.  It's called "sled packed with gifts" and if you saw my post Thursday you would have seen poor Willow freezing on it.  Today it stands alone because who wouldn't want a sled packed with presents???

Winter Willo

Yeah it's Friday!!  Tommorrow I leave for New York!!  Today's card has a big snowflake on it and it's something I don't want to see while I'm away!
Whiff of Joy has a gorgeous collection of Winter images and I'm a very lucky girl to be part of the team to bring these images to you.  This image (Festive Winter Willow) in particular took me 3 tries to get the colours right.  Yes I built the card and then stamped the image. Willow herself is such a beautiful image that it made me nervous to colour her.  Good thing I have lots of white cardstock!

Warm Winter Wishes

Good Morning!  Another day another card!  This time it's from Whiff of Joy.  Same paper as yesterday (SEI flurry kisses) and ribbon.  Both Willow and the sled are from Whiff of Joys christmas collection.  Isn't she cute???  Is she waiting for someone or waiting to give someone all those presents?  I can't decide either way they are fun to colour.

There's Snow Friend like you.

Well hello there.  I have some many cards to share I'm not really sure where to start.  But before I forget I probably won't blog next week as I will be in New York! Eeeeek!  I CAN'T WAIT!!!
Ok.....breath.  Here's a card I just finished last night.  I uses the newest digi from Whimise Doodles called Snow Friend.  It was a freebie to the first 100 members of their PCP group.  Isn't that cool!  Hahaha no pune intended as this image is of snowmen.

Much ado about nothing

Well it's one more day till the end of the week! Whooo hoooo.  Oh did I tell you  my Copics are in??  Ok so now all I have to do is figure out how to use them.  I've been playing and discovered something really important...I have to wear my GLASSES!!  Apparently the "bleeding" of the markers has nothing to do with the markers or paper.  It's me not staying in the lines!! Ha!  Then yesterday day my husband called to see what I was up to for the day and here is our conversation
Kirk-hi honey, so what are your plans for today?
Me-not much mostly just colouring.
Kirk-you know it's a good thing I know what you mean or I would have said "don't you think your a little to old for to be colouring"?

Hahahahaha anyone else would have pictured me sitting at home with my crayons and colouring books instead of my Copics and cards!

Ok now for the fun stuff...cards!!!  Here are some cards using the new digi's from Whimsie Doodles.  First here's Olive and Toasty.  Aren't they cute??

And well I know Thanksgiving is over for us Canadian girls but not for anyone else so here's a card using the new digi Get Stuffed.  That poor turkey looks like I did, all bloated and stuffed to me ears with Thanksgiving dinner. Ha!  But I'd do it again and again!

Did you Gnome I have another card for you?

hahahahaha!  Sorry about that but I couldn't resist!  Kelly you are so right, my idea of minimal is well not so limited.  But I am trying!!!  The Gnomes from Whiff of Joy are just so adorable I`m trying to keep the focus on the image and not the card.  Ok so for this card I tried to not use pattern paper, strickly cardstock!  Sooooo I made my own background using the new Swirls stamps from Whiff of Joy.  Ok so I kinda cheated!  Hehe!  But hey I did stick to my plans!
So without further ado here is Wee and christmas tree.
