HLS New Release Stamps - I've been having fun!

I was one excited Happy Little Stamper yesterday afternoon! A big box of new stamps from Happy Little Stampers arrived. 

Yep! We are up to our Second release and I am going to introduce to you the new sets!


I am going to start off with


Birthday Friends


For this card, I created a smaller panel that I could pop up with foam tape. I laid the panel on my card and stamped my hippo and sentiment first. Then I stamped the balloons making sure that some were over the edge of the smaller panel. 

Card #1


I coloured everything with my Wink of Stella pens to add some sparkle. I hope you can see it in the photo below.



Next up is


Whimsical Friends


I really love this set, especially the elephant. I created the two smallest birds especially so they could hitch a ride with him/her.

I stamped my images and sentiment in grey ink. Something I don't do very often. I usually go straight for black... I need to rethink my stamping from now on ;)


Card #2

I coloured the elephant and bird with Spectrum Noir markers. I added clear Wink of Stella to the blanket and her toenails (yep, I decided this elephant was a girl).



Now we are up to


Mix Mash


Another set I LOVE. I have made this really fun and bright card using only the circles and 1 sentiment. How versatile will this set be! 

The circles were stamped with neon inks!

Card #3


Next is


Fun Birthday Sentiments


A must have sentiment set for your collection.

First, I embossed the sentiment on watercolour paper. I used red and orange brushos to create my colour. Love it!

Card #4


Next is 

Thinking of You


This is a really pretty set of lovely sentiments. I can't wait to play with this one more!

My photo doesn't do this card justice. I have embossed all the stamps in gold. It turned out very elegant!


Card #5


Last but not least is


Everyday Sentiments


Seriously, this is another must have set for your collection! 

I sprinkled brushos onto glossy cardstock. Once dry I stamped my sentiment. I added a few little rhinestones too.

Card #6

If you would like to see how I create my backgrounds on glossy card stock, please check out my video:




I would like to enter these challenges

Card #4 - CAS-ual Fridays: Tic Tac Toe (I used colouring, spritzing, die-cutting)
Card #5 - Less is More: Use Jewel Colours (I used Gold)

  25. Love the looks of the cards created with the adorable & whimsical new stamp sets...they are delightful & fun. I will 'fess up, though, that the brusho background with the wonderful calligraphy sentiment is going to be my fav I think. This is just so elegant & looks really pretty against that pretty background...Great work on designing such versatile sets that have something for every crafter's style. TFS & have a great weekend. Hugs
