Clearly Whimsy Stamps: Day 1


There is some news over at the Whimsy Stamps blog today.......they have added a whole new line and style to their existing product range.....Cleary Whimsy Stamps!  I'm excited because I'm staying on as one of their CAS designers too!  :)

Photopolymer Clear Stamps




Today's card I'm using the adorable set called Sweet as Candy.  Guess what?  There are even dies that coordinate!  I've stamped some fun candy images in yummy colors and did a simple multi die cut layer for the "sweet" part of the sentiment giving it the dimension without the tedious use of tiny bits of foam tape.

To make the candy "backdrops", I simply used the backside of the candy stamp and stamped my colored grid.  Here is a photo showing what I did........
