Whimsy Stamps - Challenge #108

UPDATE... My card won the challenge...

   



Hello crafty friends,

Hubby is away on a golfing trip, so I gave myself the whole weekend for card making.... Yay me!  First thing on my crafty to do list was submit this card using the Penguin Party digital stamps to the current "anything goes" Whimsy Stamps Challenge.


I have fun making this card.  I first tweaked the digital stamps by erasing the fringe on top of those party hats and the designs (stars, stripes) in them.  I printed the image onto watercolor paper and hand drew rims onto the party hats, making them into witches hats. I printed an extra hat for the penguin with the scarf. The rest was just some basic coloring using my zig brush watercolor pens and a clear glitter brush pen.

I'm not afraid to use my everyday stamps (physical and digital) in different ways to get the most use I can from them.  Digital stamps are great, because they can be tweaked in small ways and sized to your needs.  I also love Halloween and I'm already working on Halloween cards.  Thank you for stopping bye.  Wish me luck on the challenge.
