It’s the first of the month so it is time for the June Whimsy Stamps digital stamp release. We are introducing new images from Meljen’s Designs, Crissy’s Digis, Moon Cookie Gallery and Raindrop Echo Designs. Also, we have another new designer this month, Kathryne Kittmer or StampArt Design.
As always, there is a blog hop to show off all the new images. Now that the Whimsy Digi Team has grown, we are big enough to split into two teams. The other team is participating in the hop this month. Please stop by the Whimsy Inspiration blog to get the blog hop list. You will want to hop along with them for your chance to win some Whimsy digis.
I decided to also post a project today showing off one of the new images. I decided I had to use an image from the new digi artist, Kathryne Kittmer of StampArt Design.
As soon as I saw this image, I knew I had to use it. This eagle is gorgeous and was so easy to color that I know I will be turning to it again. It is paired with a free digital sentiment from the Whimsy artist, Ann Vento. Ann offered this as a free download on her blog quite a while ago. If you like it, you can find the link in the list of supplies below. (I know the sentiment is a little hard to read here because of the angle of the card, but it says ” The secret of happiness is freedom. The secret of freedom is courage. ~Thucydides”)
Thank you for stopping by today! Don’t forget about the Whimsy Stamps blog hop. You can find out all the information at the Whimsy Inspirations blog.
**EDITED 6-6-11: I received an email today from Scrapbooks, Etc that I am in the running for a $500 prize and a $500 donation to a charity of my choice with this card.
