4x4 Valentine Messages Notecards...

 

Hello Doodlelicious Fans!

 

Marlene here from ScrappinCookie!

 

I'm so happy you have come to join me today at the Whimsie Doodles Blog.

 

Valentine's Day is less than ONE WEEK away, have you started on your Valentine's Day Cards? Today I have some really quick and easy 4x4 Valentine Notecards made with the Whimsie Doodles' "Valentine Messages" Digital Stamps.

 

 

The "Valentine Messages" Digital Stamp Collection contains six(6) JPEG images and a quick print sheet for each. I only used four(4) out of the six(6) images included. You can find the "Valentine Messages" Digital Stamp in the Valentine Section of the Whimsie Doodles Store.

These little notecards are PERFECT for teachers, co-workers, friends, family, etc. I simply resized them to 2 -1/8" in Mircosoft Word, printed them out and used my Spellbinders Nestabilities Lg Circles to cut them out.

To keep the 4x4 notecards simple, I just used some red cardstock embossed with my Sizzix Valentine Set 2 Embossing Folder and scrap pieces from the American Crafts XOXO 6x6 Pad I had left from other cards.

I wanted each notecard to have its own unique look, so I just rotated the sketch as I went along.

I hope my "4x4 VALENTINE MESSAGES NOTECARDS" have inspired you to create your own.

Valentine Gift Tags...

Hello Everyone!

 

Marlene here from ScrappinCookie!

 

Can you believe today is the LAST day of January?! That only means that Valentine's Day is TWO weeks away! And to me that means its time to start working on those School Valentine Treats.

 

 

I made some Chocolate Treat Boxes with Whimsie Doodles "Valentine Gift Tags" in mind. The "Valentine Gift Tags" can be found in the "Whats New" Section of the Whimsie Doodles Store for the month of Febraury, afterwards look for them in the "Valentine's" Section.

 

 

These adorable "Valentine Gift Tags" come complete with a Valentine Saying and "To:/From:" sentiments. Perfect for the lid of my Chocolate Treat Boxes.

 

 

My two boys are also HUGE Whimsie Doodles Fans, so when they heard I was going to use the Whimsie Doodles "Valentine Gift Tags" they ran to grab their colored pencils to show off their "coloring skills".

 

 

Not only does the "Valentine Gift Tags" Collection include two print sheets with the gift tags, but ALSO EIGHT(8) individual images with sentiments that can be used to make a matching card for the Teacher.

 

 

I used this month's Whimsie Doodles' "FEELING SKETCHY" Challenge sketch to create my card. I rotated the sketch 90 degrees to the right and flipped it horizontally. Thats the fun part about sketches, you can flip 'em, rotate  'em, and change their size. Be sure to check out all the details about the challenge HERE, ends February 13th.

 

 

My little "Wild About You" Monster was colored in using PrismaColor Pencils.

 

 

I hope to see you use Whimsie Doodles "Valentine Gift Tags" on your Valentine Treats this year.

Sweetheart...

 

Hello Everyone!

 

Marlene here from ScrappinCookie!

 

I'm so happy you can join me today for another Doodlelicous Inspiration!

 

Today I have a card I actually made last year and didn't get a chance to share before Valentine's Day.

 

 

I used the ADORABLE "Shy Cupid" Digital Stamp. You can find her in the "Valentine's" Section of the store under the "Holiday/Events" Tab.

 

I colored her in with PrismaColor Pencils and paper pieced her dress and headband. To her wings, I added some "Frosted Lace" Stickles.

 

 

I hope you have been inspired to use some Whimsie Doodles Digital Stamps in your upcoming Valentine's Day cards. Be sure to check out the Whimsie Doodles Store for more ADORABLE images.

Won't You BEE my Honey?

Hi Doodlelicious Fans! 

This is Marlene from ScrappinCookie! 

I'm here today to share with you two Valentine cards I've created using one of the NEWEST Releases from Whimsie Doodles - HONEY BEE.

Isn't she simply ADORABLE?! You can find HONEY BEE in the "Whats New" Section of the store for the month of January. Afterwards, be sure to look for her in the "Holiday/Events - Valentine's" Section of the Whimsie Doodles Store.

HONEY BEE comes complete with a matching sentiment for your Valentine's Day cards. I simply ran my patterned paper thru my printer before adhering to my black mat and stitching around the card.

Both cards were made using the NEW American Craft XOXO Collection 6x6 Paper Pad.

I also added her to the inside of my card. Using MS Word I cropped the image before printing it. 

Be sure to check out the Whimsie Doodles Store for more ADORABLE images.

I know we are a few days into the year already, but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to Wish EWE a Happy New Year - 2013!

My quick and simple card uses the Whimsie Doodles' "New Year's Lush" digital image. You can find her in the "Christmas/Winter" Section of the Whimsie Doodles' Store. 

She was given a light shadow, the olives were colored in, and some stickles were added to the Martini Glass. I tied some White Crinkle Ribbon and attached the sentiment included in the "New Year's Lush" digital image.

Halloween Sentiments 2012 Card Set

 

 

Hello Everyone!

 

This is Marlene from ScrappinCookie!

 

Thank You for joining me here at Whimsie Doodles today!

 

Can you believe that today is the LAST day of September?! Where has the month gone? As I walk into many department stores the Halloween Decorations are everywhere, the costumes are out for purchase and the aisle are filled with Candy. October is HERE.

 

Today I have a quick Set of 3 Halloween Cards using the "Halloween Sentiments 2012" from Whimsie Doodles' September Release.

 

 

I used THREE(3) Sentiments from the SIX(6) Sentiments included in the "Halloween Sentiments 2012" Collection. You can find them in the "Holidays & Events - Halloween" section of the store.

 

Best Witches - Halloween Sentiments 2012 Collection.

 

The "Halloween Sentiments 2012" were sized to about 2" using Microsoft Word and then cut and embossed with my Nestabilities Lg Circle Dies.

 

Boo - Halloween Sentimenst 2012 Collection.

 

To keep the set coordinating, each card follows the same sketch using different patterned papers from the DCWV Midnight Spell Collection.

 

Hopping Day - Halloween Sentiments 2012 Collection

 

 I couldn't just leave the inside of the cards blank, so using Photoshop Elements I erased the borders and wording from the Halloween Sentiments 2012 leaving only the image. I then used MS Word to recolor the image and enlarge it to fit inside of the card.

 

Hopping Day - Halloween Sentiments 2012 Collection

 

I hope you have enjoyed my quick Halloween Card Set using the "Halloween Sentiments 2012".
