Hello and welcome to Day 2 of our October Rubber & Die Release Showcase! On Wednesday (24 October) Whimsy Stamps released this month's new rubber designs, Shapeology dies, Whimsy Designer Paper packs and Shape EZ templates. From then until October 30th, the Whimsy Stamps DT and Special Guests are showcasing these fabulous new goodies with a daily mini blog hop! Each mini blog hop has a new release prize hidden somewhere along the way and you have 24hrs to enter each prize draw.
Since Halloween is just around the corner, I had to use the adorable new Batty Boo image from illustrator Sylvia Zet. When I saw this image earlier this year as a digital image offered by Sylvia, I was hoping Whimsy Stamps would release a rubber version and I'm so excited they did! Isn't is so cute?!
I stamped the image on copic x-press it cardstock with tuxedo black memento ink and colored it with copic markers. I used some patterned papers from October Afternoon's new Witch Hazel paper pad along with some buttons and washi tape from the same line. I finished my card off with some Halloween baker's twine and a sentiment from Catslife Press. (The Halloween twine is Divine Twine which I am placing an order with soon so let me know if you want some. You can find all the info here.)
To be entered into today's mini blog hop prize draw, be sure to leave a comment on ALL of the DT's posts listed below by 12.00PM EST tomorrow. All winners will be announced on the Whimsy blog on October 31st. To take a peek at today's fabulous new release creations, please click on the links below...
