Whimsy Sneak Peek Day 4!

Happy Monday friends!!  Time for another Whimsy Stamps sneaky peek!!!
Today the DT are showing some SNEAK PEEK creations from the Meljen's Designs rubber stamp collection and like the other sneak peeks, these will not be available for purchase until the release of the blog hop on Wednesday, May 18th...so be sure to be watching for that!!
And to see the list of DT members showing sneak peeks today, please visit the Whimsy Inspiration Blog for the information and links to everyone showing sneak peeks today!

Here's my sneak peek for you today...
LOL!! Isn't he just a riot?!!  (Reminds me of one of my teens!)
This "happy" little guy is the soon-to-be released called Gruffy Little Gnome by Meljen's Designs.
I was going for a masculine theme here for a birthday card.  I made a tag with the image and placed him on this layout with the birthday wording and pennants you see.
The pennants were made with the earlier released Whimsy Shapeology Die called Banner and Pennants Die Set.  What is so awesome about this die set is that Raindrop Echo Designs has now created the perfect sentiment set that matches with the dies!  It is another soon-to-be released set called Celebration Pennants!  The "birthday definition background" that you see on the reddish panel is from the set as well as that small "happy" sentiment next to the gnome. :)  And of course on the inside of the card is where you would put your "happy - happy - happy birthday" sentiment!! LOL!!

Here are some challenges that I've entered for this card:
Try it On Tuesday - Tag Week - one for the boys
The Pixie Cottage - Sketch and Tag You're It!
Cute Card Thursday - distressing
DYSU? - add a tag
Paper Sundaes - birthday creations

Hope you've enjoyed my creation for you today and that you'll be excited for the release and blog hop coming us this Wednesday!! :)  Thanks for stopping by and I'll see you again tomorrow friends!! HUGS
