December 2016 Release Week: Happy Gang with Joni

Hello everyone, Joni here, and welcome to our December 2016 Release previews! All of the new products that we will be sharing with you over the next couple of days will be available for purchase beginning December 5, 2016 at wplus9.com as well as at many of your favorite retailers.

I want to introduce you to the cute Happy Gang stamp set and Happy Gang Companion Die.

AVAILABLE December 5, 2016

Happy Gang
4x6" Clear Stamp Set
$15 USD

Happy Gang Companion Die
Steel Rule Die
$11 USD

For this project I created a baby card. To begin, I stamped the images onto white cardstock with PURE COLOR Dye ink in Fairy Dust for the mouse, Hayride for the cat, and Warm Wool for the tiny mouse. I die-cut them all and then added some additional color using Copic markers to give them some depth and dimension.

Next, I stamped the happy balloon images using PURE COLOR dye ink in Shell Pink. Then I distressed the bottom of the card to ground the images using Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Crushed Olive. I also added the "It's a girl" sentiment which is part of the set.

I added the final sentiment - which is also included in the set - "so very happy for you". I stamped the sentiment with Versamark ink onto black cardstock and heat embossed it in white. I adhered the die-cut images with foam tape for a little extra dimension. Some Pretty Pink Posh Sparkling Clear sequins finish it off.

I cannot wait for you to see the rest of new release. Kara will be here tomorrow with a brand new floral set!
