Winnie & Walter - The Write Stuff: Leave it to Dad


Hi all! Here's a preview of winnie & walter's second stamp set, The Write Stuff: Leave it to Dad. It was really difficult to pick which stamps to use for this post ... so many possibilities with all of them!
  
winnie & walter blog
Here's a card that uses the large male silhouette image. I particularly enjoy this more contemporary silhouette of a man in a business suit, vs. the more traditional Victorian silhouette image of a man with a top hat. Since it's more contemporary, I thought it would lend itself to an "Andy Warhol" treatment with the different colored embossed images. Love that this set includes a "Pops" stamp. We use that term often around the house. Much more than "Dad" : )

At first I reached for the white embossing powder for the Pops sentiment, but changed to purple to give it more of a quirky pop art feel. I like that there is no white on this card. Well, until you get to the inside I guess! It's lined with We R Memory Keepers Simply Spring paper.

And did you know that winnie & walter offer coordinating cut files? Yes they do! They are actually free with the purchase of the coordinating stamp set until March 30. Not interested in the stamps? You can just purchase the cut files separately if you'd like.


Here's one of the cut files that is just so charming. Potty People holding hands! I layered two potty people together to give them a little more substance, and added the sparkly heart to the little boy who is lovin' on his Daddy-O. Yep, that's right, there is a stamp that says Daddy-O! How awesome is that?! We also use that term around here, although Pop/Pops is more common. 

Love is from The Big, The Bold, The Happy (sold out again, but will be back), and You is from a set debuting in a couple days. The stars on the top are from Scenery: Big Bang Confetti (sold out now, but will be back).

The envelope is made with the same paper as the potty people, and it's tied it in with the matching potty people stamp


Here's another cut file that's included free with the stamp set for a limited time. To make the shaped card, I made the Dad silhouette solid, copied it, flipped it horizontally, squished the two silhouettes together slightly, cut and folded it over. That's the bottom white layer. Then I cut a black layer as-is and adhered that on top of the white card base. The bold "DAD" is from yesterday's Parentville. Super quick and easy once it was set up and cut out. 

Half way through the second release! Check back and see the final two sets. Like yesterday, be sure to check out the amazing projects from the Talent, and our awesomely talented guest designer Angie Tieman!

  10. That "Pops" card takes the cake in my book. The colors, the technique, the humor. And I use the term "Pops" too. Great job, Kelly.
