Good Morning Everyone, Happy Monday!!! Today Whimsy Stamps  is kick'n off the week with some fun!!! Welcome to the Whimsy New Release Hop!!!

Whimsy Stamps is releasing some brand new rubber stamps today, and to celebrate the DT are having a Blog Hop!
We have 3 new stamps from Whimsy Crissy Armstrong Collection and 3 amazing Sentiment stamp sets by Raindrop Echo Designs to show you today.
The blog hop will run from today, Monday July 19th at noon EST until Monday July 26th at noon EST.

The team has lots of creativity and inspiration to share with you so why not grab yourself a cup of coffee and enjoy the hop.



And of course, for joining us, we have a special blog hop prize of all six stamps being released today. All you need to do is leave a comment on each of the blogs and enter your name for the random drawing at the end of the hop!!

Today I wanted to share a creation I made using the fabulous Moonlit Ride Carousel Horse and accessories illustrated by the uber talented Crissy Armstrong. I water colored my image, cut it out and popped it up on dimensionals. The layout uses the Pixie Cottage sketch for this week. They also added the twist of triple play meaning add three of one item. I used 3 white flowers. The dp is some long neglected paper from my stash from DCWV.


Hope you enjoyed my creation. The next stop on the hop is the sweet and talented Nathalie Jobin.
