I finally got up the nerve to start using my much coveted Wonderfully Whimsical set designed by uber-talented Becky Oehlers. Because these types of images are not my regular style I was intimidated, but I had so much FUN with these last night! I don't know why I waited!
This card is for a guy, so I tried to leave ribbon and "extras" off, but I couldn't resist a few buttons. For masculine cards I generally try to stick to few colors or a monochromatic color scheme, so the red, white and black seemd a good fit. I really like how I can stamp the tiny sentiments right into the sign on the house...fun, fun, fun! I was worried embossing would be difficult because of the small size of the stamps, but as you can see, it was not a problem and actually looks great.
Thanks for stopping by today!

Dana I love this card. I look forward every morning to checking out what you have for us ....... dessert with no calories ....
This is great Dana! I love the image stamped in white on black! The colors you chose are so cute!!
Love the color scheme on this Dana!
This is so cute! I love the color combo you chose and it works so well with the stamp. That background just brings your eye into the focal and works perfectly. Very well done!
Neat card, I like the stamp set, but was not sure if I would get it as most have coloured the images with their copics and I don't have any of those...you did a great job with just a couple of accents!
What a wonderful card, Dana! I love how you heat embossed on black! Love the colors....great masculine card!
Oh my goodness Dana, you shouldn't have waited so long... this card is fabulous! I would have never thought to go masculine with this set, wow, really a great job! Glad I inspired you to use it!
I would never have thought to use this set like that. Great idea though. Very cool!
Oh Dana, this is gorgeous. Love everything about it. So well done.
Oh I love the white house against the black! So so so cute!
OMG! Love it! It's perfect!
This is awesome! (Is awesome a good masculine descriptive word?) I love the color combo and the clean lines!
Oooh, I love the bright, bold colours on this Dana! The die cut focal point it striking and I love how you've only used part of the hill stamp. I've not inked this set up yet but I think it'll be next!
This card is very cool, Dana. I love the red and black color scheme and the stamps are just so darn cute!
This is really pretty, and unique use of the set with the embossing, I LOVE it!
I have been waiting!!! Looks awesome!! Can't wait to see more! FUN!
So cute! I love the house and the sentiment on the scored paper underneath
