Welcome to the Whimsy Stamps Release Blog Hop!
If you've come here from Denise's Blog, then you're on the right track. If not, please start at Chris' blog to make sure you haven't missed anyone.
Today Whimsy Stamps is releasing six new rubber stamps - yep, six!! Three new images (Jelly Bean, Moonlit Ride, and Maya and Marissa) are being added to the Crissy Armstrong Collection and three new sentiments sets (Birthday Letter Seals, Handmade Letter Seals, and Fancy Friendship Tags) are being added to the Sentiments Collection. There's a great variety being released today and I'm sure the design team will impress you with all the wonderful creations they've come up with :)
As always, there's a great prize to be won! You have until Monday, July 26th at Noon EST to comment on ALL blog hop posts to be in the running to win all six of of these wonderful stamps.
For the hop, I've created a card using Jelly Bean. Isn't he adorable?? This is my first attempt at sewing on cards, so please be gentle with the comments :) Some parts are okay, some parts look just plain ole ridiculous, but you can't see those parts because my watermark is covering it :D I went with a really simple design on this card because I wanted Jelly Bean to really stand out.
