Winnie & Walter: Premiere Day #1

Hi folks! Hold on to your hats, you are absolutely going to be blown away by the amount of goodies in this latest Winnie & Walter release!! There are small, medium and large stamp sets, and TWO NEW PRODUCT LINES being debuted during this release. Let's get started!


 
There are two stamps in this release that I was daydreaming about before they got to my house. One of those stamps makes this peppermint pattern (Mini Scenery: The Peppermint Zone). LOVE. it.  You can leave it in its rectangle shape, or you can punch out the easiest paper Halloween candy ever. Here's how:

 

You stamp the image, punch it out with a 2" punch (you could really use any size here), and wrap it with some cellophane (tie up the ends with string). That's it!

You can get a lot of different looks with just this one stamp. Stamp with colored ink on white paper, black ink on colored paper, or rotate through several different colors of ink.

Of course you can also make a cute card with the paper Halloween candy. The "trick or treat" sentiment is from Moonlight. The background is NOT a patterned paper! It's made with one of the new product lines ... stencils!! Whoo-hoo! They are affectionately referred to as "Creative Screenings" and there are a ton to choose from. I picked the starry sky stencil for this card, and did a few sprays of Heidi Swapp White Glimmer Mist. So excited with the results after I removed the stencil! Lots of subtle shimmer going on in person. I better keep this stencil one out on my desk ... it will get tons of use!

The stencils not only come in negative images (like the starry night in the last card where you color through the negative hole(s)), but also positive images like this leaf. I blended a tiny bit of color around the outline of the leaf in fall colors. I like how you still get the feeling of "Autumn" but the card is very light and airy.  The delicate sentiment is from This Awesome House.

We've got three more action-packed days before we're done, so please check back in tomorrow. The other stamp that I was daydreaming about is in tomorrow's post, and I can't wait for you to see it!! For now, check out the amazing projects from Julie and Shay on the Winnie & Walter blog. As always, there's a ton more inspiration on the personal blogs of our Talent:
