Whimsy Stamps Blog Hop!

Hello Friends!

Today is the Blog Hop for Whimsy Stamps. I'm so happy that Denise asked me to be apart of it. I had a blast using the stamps being released today! I just LOVE this little Giraffe I used the stamp is called Big Comfy Cake. I decided to make an Easel Card. I drew the Cupcake topping and scored the cupcake paper to look like a cupcake paper cup.

Hopped here after seeing that adorable giraffe on the Whimsy site and your easel card sample. Just leaving some LOVE for that card! Also, as I'm checking out your blog, your coloring is perfect on so many, and I like how you incorporate the Wild Orchid craft flowers into everything. First time at the Whimsy store, your blog, and hearing of Wild Orchid...uh oh my shopping list is getting longer! :)
