A Tinbit Christmas by Linda
Hi everyone! Welcome back to the Wild Whisper blog! I'm still having fun making Christmas cards, and today I have a shaker one made from the Tinbit Travels collection by Nicole Wright. As well as adding a bunch of glittery Doo Dadz from Buttons Galare's "Cool Yule" embellishment pack, I die cut the stag out of red glitter paper and threw him in there too. I love how he moves through the "forest" as you shake the card. Below, I show the sheet that I cut my background from. Slimline cards are 3.5" x 8.5", so in order to fit...

Paper Challenge by Linda
Hi everyone, It's December, and time to push the cardmaking into high gear! So what do you do if you don't have any Christmas paper, and you're in the mood to make Christmas cards??? I'm going to show you how to use a pack of non-Christmas paper and challenge you to try it! The collection I started with is Simplicity by Pam Bray. At first glance, it doesn't look very Christmassy does it? Flipping through it though, there was a wreath that caught my eye. Next step was to find some background paper for the wreath and I loved this...
All is Calm by Linda
Hi everyone, I pulled out my Wild Whisper Christmas stamps... Christmas Comfort, Woodsy, Home for the Holidays... and combined them on a pretty, sparkly card today. I used them to create a scene within this pretty bauble stencil which was sponged with Hickory Smoke and Tumbled Glass distress oxide inks. I then took a piece of paper from an old collection called "Small Patterns", and to sparkle it up and make it Christmassy, I embossed the edges with Ranger's Silver Tinsel embossing powder, and trimmed it with a sparkly silver ribbon. Above, you can see how I also embossed...
A Magical Moment by Linda
Hi everyone! I have a different style of card to share with you today. It has been inked up with lots of Distress Oxides and I used several different Wild Whisper stamps to create the scene. Stamp sets used are: Adventure, Home for the Holidays, Christmas Comfort, and World's Best. I started out with a piece of cardstock 2-3/4" x 7-3/4" and did the technique I'm sure most are familiar with, squishing Distress Oxide ink pads onto my mat, spraying the ink with water and blotting and drying the cardstock over and over until I was happy with how it...
