Whimsy Stamps January Digi Release Blog Hop

 Hi Everyone!!!

Whimsy Stamps is having a New Digi Release TODAY!!!!   If you can't tell, I'm a bit excited. This is my very FIRST post AND blog hop as a NEW deisigner for the Whimsy Stamps Digital Design Team.  I'm thrilled to be able to work beside all the wonderful talent of the design team and of course I also LOVE Whimsy Stamps designs, what more could I want. 

WELCOME to the January digi release blog hop !!!  

We have LOTS of new images and sentiments to share with you today that were 

created by Crissy, Ann and also Meljen's Designs collections.  We also have some Beautiful Pre-colored images that are great for making those "QUICK" cards that are designed by Melissa Jenkins (Meljen's Designs).  Each file is JPG at 300dpi for high print quality.  You can resize, flip or rotate the images to fit your own project needs.  

If you arrived here from the lovely Vicki's blog then you are on the right track ! If you just happened to wander here, I'm glad to see you, but you may want to go back to the start of the hop at Whimsy Inspirations Blog to make sure you don't miss out on anything !!

Be sure to leave a comment on each of the blogs participating in the hop for there will be SIX Mystery DT Members who will be choosing a winner from the comments left on their hop posts !!  These winners will each win a Whimsy digital image of their choice.  And at the last stop, which is Denise's blog, there will be a Grand Prize winner chosen that will receive 5 new digital images of their choice from Whimsy, and they will also get a chance to use those new digital images as a guest designer for Whimsy for the month of January.

TODAY, I have chosen 

to use a digital image created by Crissy Armstrong for Whimsy Stamps.  It is called "Dance of Love".  This image makes the carousel horse seem so graceful and so elegant.  I just love these images from Crissy.

My image is printed out on my laser printer onto Cryogen White cardstock and colored with Copics. I also added some stickles for some sparkle. 

When I first saw this image I was reminded of a Carnival with the Carousel ride.  I used to love the Carousel as a child and I still like to get on it when we go to Hershey Park, PA.  I was also reminded of cotton candy, don't know why, but this made me think of the pink fluffy sweet stuff. And that led to the Conversation Heart sentiments that I made.  All SWEET stuff..... 

Here's a closeup of my "Dance with Love" image. 

 All of these new designs are available at the Whimsy Stamps store starting TODAY.

The hop will run until 12 noon EST Thursday 13th January. 

The winner will be announced over on the Whimsy Inspirations Blog. 

Now head on over to lovely Heike's blog.
