I have a second card that I’ve create for new release using Polka Dot Pals Uzuri. This one uses the snowman and bird accessory stamps to be the main focus. Continue reading for more details on how I used these key products:
I drew the snowman in this set thinking that Polka Dot Pals Uzuri had made a bunch of snow balls and was pulling them accross the park to build it in the corner. Of course, there was some jossling along the way but it looks like she knows what she is doing, right? I colored the bird red to bring in some bright contrasting color and then decided to carry on that theme with the letters and dots. For a sentiment, I used the stamps’ sentiment as inspiration and created the CHEER from Bold ABC Die and stamping them with the AlFaDoodles. I thought the styles worked well together.
It’s a new release at Whimsy Stamps and today I have two sets featured – Polka Dot Pals Uzuri and Linking Train. Both are going to be awesome for the holidays and the Linking Train is also perfect for everyday and celebrations cards. I’m excited to show off Polka Dot Pals Uzuri so keep reading for more details on how I used these key products:
This was such a fun card to create and it was also one of the more difficult ones. It’s out of my norm to use a title die like this, with the Comic Speech Bubbles, and laying it on top of a colored scene for Polka Dot Pals Uzuri. I was worried it wouldn’t look complete but it turned out so much better than I thought.I had colored the images first and had planned to color Polka Dot Pals Uzuri in cool colors but honestly, I don’t know how I ended up with reds but I’m glad I did. I liked the result of the bright character against the soft cool background. I’ll mark that as a happy accident.
I’ve enjoyed using the selfie stamps from My Favorite Things on slimline cards so I took the opportunity to color with my Mom and used her stamps to create this one. She purchased the Christmas sELFies and I picked out my two favorite squares to create this fun holiday card.
I started the with the background and put down the turquoise colors and began to drop away with the alcohol to create the texture. I then colored the characters. Since the snowmen were going to be white, I knew I wanted the bear to be a non-white color. In reality I started with the idea of a black bear but didn’t realize the colors I chose until the end were brown. Ack! But the bear turned out good so I’m with that. The last thing I added was the snowflakes which really finished it off.
Is it time for spring cleaning or renovations? Either way, Polka Dot Pals Beau is ready for the challenge. You might not recognize her, however, you’re not going to recognize this space once she gets done with it, for sure. You go girl.

Good Luck!This card started with the Haunted Parlor in the background. I colored it with non-Halloween colors to make it looks like an old house with the browns and whites. The next step was to add my character. Polka Dot Pals Beau is sitting and she didn’t fit very well in the room and it looked awkward to me. So I stamped her head and then stamped the boy of Polka Dot Pals Colton so she would be standing in the foreground. I used the brush and step ladder accessories to help complete the scene.
I recently picked up a new hobby that allows me to breeze through the parks and trees with the squirrels and I can’t believe how many squirrels I’ve seen. So when I saw this release of Let’s Go Nuts with all those squirrels, I knew I had to get it and make cards for my buddies.

I’ve made it back and I have a fun winter card to share. This card is brought to you by Bunny who asked about coloring a winter scene, “night sky, snow, something like that.” Hopefully this fits within that request. This project uses the little Christmas lamb in Polka Dot Pals Brianna with the winter scene I created in the background. I was able to record it too so that’s something you can enjoy on YouTube. This card was created using these featured products:
