These are the creations I've made with a few of the images. I want to make a couple more, but need to get back to Christmas cards, so will revisit another day. Here are some cute creations I put together this week using this fabulous stamp set.

I used a wonderful Whimsy Stencil called It's Cloudy, to create the soft billowing clouds behind the tree. I masked the tree after colouring it with Copic Markers and then stencilled in the clouds. I'll list all the elements used at the foot of this post. 

This adorable little alligator holding onto his orange blossom, really is a cutie, I stencilled a dreamy background behind him and paired him with a fabulous Whimsy paper from the Farmhouse Paper Pack. The lovely scalloped frame is from the Sprinkles Scallops Rectangle Die Set. I didn't add a sentiment yet, as I may use this for a birthday card. 

This cute pair of Manatees by Krista Heij-Barber make me smile so much! That bubby one with his pokey tongue makes me giggle. I masked and stencilled again on this design. I used the fab Making Waves Stencil from Whimsy for this background. I cut the image and the card base with dies from the Notched Squares Die Set. Still one of my favourite die sets to elevate a square card design. 

My final design used the cute Flamingo and Crab on the beach image provided by Dustin Pike, too cute and so funny. I think my flamingo got a bit of sunburn! I'm hoping to find time to create a couple more designs with this set over the weekend and will share once I have. Don't delay ordering though, as the pre-order finishes very soon and if you do order, thank you! The Florida Relief Fund this stamp set supports will be very grateful for the extra funds. 100% of the sales goes straight to the charity helping with the rebuild after the recent devastation. Click through directly to the store, on the image below if you'd like to order.  

Thanks for popping in today, I appreciate your visit so much and hope you enjoyed these creations. I'll be back soon with some more December adventures. Happy Advent xoxo
