Simon Says Stamp Hello Sunflower

Hello Friends, and welcome to STAMPtember! Have you had a chance to check out the entire STAMPtember release yet? I’d love to know your favorites in the comments! Stay tuned for a huge blog party taking place tomorrow! I really had fun making this card, which uses the new Sunflower Dreams stamp paired with some other leaves. Let’s go through the details!

NOTE: all supplies are linked in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by stamping the Sunflower Dreams onto a panel of watercolor paper using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat setting it using clear embossing powder. I then pulled out my watercolors and painted the main flower only. Once I was done with the painting, I went back in and added some details using colored pencils, Copic markers and a Copic Multiliner pen. Because I only wanted the larger flower, I set out on the tedious task of fussy cutting.

I then die cut the Abundant Leaves several times from Neenah, as well as gold cardstock, and I cut the center of the flower from the Autumn Sunflower set. I went ahead and ink blended the green leaves using Sprout, Field and Surf inks. The sentiment was cut once from gold cardstock and twice from the dark green cardstock to create a stacked sentiment.

The forest green background was gold splattered before adding the other elements. The gold leaves were added first, with the green leaves being offset slightly. The sunflower was added using foam tape, as was that extra sunflower center that was cut. The sentiment was adhered directly to the card panel using liquid glue to finish up.

That does it for this project! I hope you like it! I do love the contrast of the background with the flower and leaves. Don’t forget to check out the entire STAMPtember release, and stay tuned all month for lots of surprises! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a fabulous day!

Simon Says Stamp Big Bus

Hello there, and welcome back! Today’s project is featuring the new Big Bus from Simon’s latest release, Happy Camper. A perfect die cut for all of those back to school cards, and this one is a shaped card! Let’s go ahead and run through the details.

NOTE: all supplies are linked in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by die cutting all of the elements of the bus from coordinating cardstock colors, meaning the bus was cut from yellow, the tires were cut from black, the wheels and bumpers were cut from matte silver cardstock, etc. Once I was finished with the die cutting, I did some shading on the bus and windows using Honey and Morning inks.

When die cutting the bus itself, I folded the yellow cardstock in half and did a partial die cut to create the shaped card. I assembled the bus with all of the cut elements, and added this Reverse Back to School sentiment strip with foam tape to finish up.

This really was a simple project to complete, and I just love that the card itself is the bus! I hope you enjoyed it as well. Don’t forget to check out the entire Happy Camper release over on Simon’s website. Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a fabulous day!

Spellbinders Seasonal Wreath

Hello Friends, and welcome back! Today’s project is featuring the Seasonal Wreath Foliage from Spellbinders and Suzanne Hue. It’s also featuring the new Linen 3D Embossing Folder, so let’s go ahead and run through the details!

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by die cutting the leaves a bunch of times from Waterfall cardstock, while also cutting the berries from Crimson cardstock. I did some ink blending on the leaves using Surf ink and then adhered the berries to the leaves.

The background was created using the new Linen 3D Embossing Folder and some gold splatter. The sentiment was cut once from gold cardstock and three times from Neenah, while the shadow portion was cut twice. All of those layers were adhered together for a stacked sentiment.

The background was adhered to the card base, and then I began adhering the leaves in place. Once those were all in place, I added the sentiment using foam strips for some added dimension.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it! Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Spellbinders Foliage Swag

Hello Friends, and thanks for joining me! Today’s project is featuring several new products from the Spellbinders August releases. I had a lot of fun creating this swag, so let’s go ahead and go through the details.

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by die cutting the Christmas Foliage from Crimson, Fern and gold cardstock. I will mention that this leaf was cut multiple times to achieve this full look. I did some ink blending Lush Forest and Brick inks. Once I was done with that, I assembled the flowers and white splattered the leaves and added “ice” using glue and clear glitter.

The background panel was created using the new Bow & Bell Scallop Frame along with some gold splatter. I cut the Merry sentiment once from gold cardstock and twice from Neenah 110lb cardstock and adhered all of those together for that stacked sentiment that we all love.

The panel was adhered to the card base, the leaves were glued in place, as were the flowers and the sentiment.

It was a lot of die cutting, but I’m quite happy with the end project. It’s hard for me to work on holiday cards this early in the year, but I didn’t mind this one, because I think it came out so pretty. Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp Geometric Hello

Hello Crafty Friend and welcome back! Today’s project is featuring the new Mid Century Elemental Plate from Simon’s latest release, Happy Camper. I actually made several cards using this plate, but I think one is my favorite! Let’s run through the details!

NOTE: all supplies are linked in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by ink blending a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock using Bubblegum, Sunbeam, Seafoam and Lilac inks. I then ran the panel and plate through the die cutting machine, trying to keep the pieces in tact as much as possible. I placed some Press n Seal on the front of the panel and placed small pieces of foam tape on the back of the pieces.

I then removed the negative frame piece and placed that, along with the card base in the corner of the Misti to help with placement. I removed the backing from the foam tape and adhered the pieces to the card base and once again removed the negative frame piece when I was done.

The sentiment was cut once from gold cardstock, twice from Neenah, while the shadow portion was cut twice. Those were all adhered together and glued to the front of the card to finish up.

That does it for this project. I love the soft blend that I was able to get on this project, and the gold sentiment went perfectly! Don’t forget to check out the entire Happy Camper release over on Simon’s website. Thanks again for joining me, and have an awesome day!

Spellbinders Falling Leaves

Hello Friends, and welcome back! Thanks for joining me to check out today’s project featuring the new Falling Leaves from Spellbinders and Kelly Bangs. This was a fun project, so let’s go ahead and run through the details.

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by grabbing a panel of watercolor paper and some Simon inks. The colors that I chose to use were Guava, Honey, Pearfection and Clay. The process basically involved ink smooshing, using one color at a time. I smooshed the ink pad onto my glass mat and spritzed it with water, and laid the paper into the puddle. I repeated this process with each color, until I was satisfied and until my panel was covered. Once done with the inks, I dried the panel using the low setting on my heat tool.

I went ahead and die cut the leaves from the panel, die cut the stems from Peridot and Green Apple cardstock, and die cut the acorns from Desert Storm. I adhered the stems to some of the leaves and did some ink blending on the acorns using Gingerbread and Mocha inks. I assembled the acorns, added some detail with a brown colored pencil and set everything aside while I figured out the background.

The background was created using the Nested Postage Labels & Tag set, along with the Scribbled Letter Embossing Folder. I gold splattered the background, as well as some of the leaves to tie everything together. The sentiment was created using the new Documenting Labels set.

The background was adhered to the card base and then I began adhering to the leaves, tucking them in around the acorns. The acorns were adhered using foam tape, and the sentiment was secured with liquid glue to finish up.

That does it for this card. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! I really love how these leaves turned out! I still have some of my ink smooshed panel left, so I might have to create another card! Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp Fun With Friends

Hey There, and welcome back! I’ve done a couple of cutesy cards lately, and here is my second one featuring the Cute Campers set from Simon’s latest release, Happy Camper. Let’s go ahead and go through the deets!

NOTE: all supplies are linked in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by stamping all of my elements using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat setting them with clear embossing powder. I then used way too many Copic Markers to color in all of my images! I’ll list those at the bottom of this post, to save space and time.

Once all of the coloring was complete, I fussy cut the images out. There are coordinating dies for this set to make things easier, but I didn’t have those. My background panel was created using a deckle edge die cut and some ink blending with Sky, Dusk, Night, Sunbeam and Black inks. I did add some white splatter on the panel to mimic stars for some added interest.

The tent, trees and camper element were adhered directly to the panel with liquid glue, because I wanted them to appear more in the background, while the critters, fire and sentiment were adhered with foam tape. The panel was then adhered to the card base to finish up.

That’s it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it! Cutesy cards really aren’t in my wheelhouse, but I really enjoyed creating this scene! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have an awesome day, friends!

Simon Says Stamp I Love You Dual Diamonds

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back to my blog! I’m back today with a card featuring the new Dual Diamonds from Simon’s latest release, Happy Camper. This card is also featuring the new ilysm stamp and die set, so let’s go ahead and go through the details!

NOTE: all supplies are linked in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by ink blending a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock using Bubblegum, Sunbeam, Seafoam and Heather inks. I then ran the panel and die through the machine, being careful to keep the pieces in place. I went ahead and placed some Press n Seal to the front of the panel and added pieces of foam tape to the back of the diamonds.

I pulled the negative frame portion from the Press n Seal and placed that, along with my card base into the corner of the Misti. Once I removed the backing from the foam tape, I lined up the diamonds with the guide piece in the Misti. I could then carefully remove the negative frame piece, and all of my diamonds are perfectly lined up!

I die cut the ilysm sentiment once from black glossy cardstock and twice from black cardstock, while cutting the shadow portion twice from Neenah. All of those were adhered together and glued directly to the card. The sub sentiment was stamped using VersaMark ink, heat set with Detail White Embossing Powder, trimmed down and adhered with foam tape to finish up.

That does it for this project. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! I do love a great ink blended panel! Don’t forget to check out the entire Happy Camper release over on Simon’s website. Thanks again for joining me, and have a wonderful day!

Spellbinders Hey Pupkin

Hello Crafty Friends, and thanks for joining me! I’m back today with a cutie card featuring the new Pupkin from the Spellbinders August releases. Let’s jump right into the details!

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by die cutting all of the pieces from various cardstock scraps. Once all of the cutting was done, I began assembling the pup. I should have done some light ink blending, but to be honest, I forgot and it was too late at the point that I remembered. Have you ever done that? I was too lazy to cut all of the pieces again.

The background panel was created using the Deckled Rectangles and the Tim Holtz Paper Distresser tool thingy. Once I was satisfied with the distressing of the edges, I took it over to my splat box and added some black splatter. The panel was adhered to the card base and the pup was adhered atop that with foam tape.

Now for the interesting part .. I don’t make Halloween cards, so I didn’t have a sentiment to use on this project. I also didn’t request one when the Pupkin was being sent to me. A little snafu on my part! With all of that being said, I had to whip out the label maker for the sentiment.

A pretty simple card, but I actually like how it turned out, even though cutesy cards are not in my wheelhouse. Don’t forget to swing by the Spellbinders site to check out all of the new August releases! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a fabulous day!

Simon Says Stamp Blossom Bursts

Hello Friends, and welcome back! Thanks for stopping by to check out today’s project featuring the new Blossom Bursts Embossing Folder from Simon’s latest release, Happy Camper. Let’s go ahead and run through the details for this one.

NOTE: all supplies are linked in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by embossing the folder onto a panel of watercolor paper. To add color to the flowers, I used Bubblegum, Carnation, Cantaloupe, Honey, Sunbeam, Surf, Mocha and Ocean ink. I began with one color and smooshed some ink onto my glass mat and painted it on using a detail water brush.

Once done with the painting, I stamped the sentiment using VersaMark ink onto black cardstock and heat setting it with Detail White Embossing Powder. I trimmed it out using the coordinating die, along with two extra cuts, and adhered all of those pieces together.

The trimmed panel was adhered to the card base using foam tape, while the sentiment was adhered using foam strips. I also added a few Dazzling Gems to finish up.

That does it for this one. I hope you enjoyed it! This was just an easy way to stretch your ink pads and use them for more than just stamping or ink blending. Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a wonderful day!
