Simon Says Stamp Groovy Birthday

Hello Friends, and welcome back to my blog! I’m still playing with goodies from the Beautiful Moments release, and today’s project is featuring the Groovy Daisies. I decided while I was stamping that I would go ahead and create two panels, so let’s go ahead and get into the details!

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

Both panels were created the same, so I put my first panel in the Misti and added some Bubblegum ink to one corner, softening the ink line with a blending brush. I stamped that and moved on to the next color, softening each of the ink lines with a brush so that I didn’t have any of the harsh lines. The other colors that were used were Zest, Seafoam and Lilac.

I trimmed both panels down using the A2 Scalloped Rectangles and then went to work on the sentiments. Those were cut once with gold cardstock and twice from Neenah, as well as cutting the shadow portion twice. All of those layers were adhered together for a stacked sentiment.

The panels were adhered to the card base, the sentiments were adhered using foam strips, and some gold metallic pearls were added to a few of the flowers to finish up.

That does it for these projects! My ink blending is super light, and I think these would be gorgeous using some darker colors as well. I might have to give that a go sometime soon! Thanks for joining me, and I hope you have a fabulous day!

Simon Says Stamp Beautiful Friend Floral

Hello Friends and welcome back! There’s a super fun Instagram Hop happening today to celebrate Simon’s latest release, Beautiful Moments. Be sure to head over there to check out all of the inspiration from the team! Comment along the hop for your chance to win a $25 gift card! My project for today is featuring several new products including the Beautiful Friend die, the Country Basket Bouquet and the Nested Stitched Rectangles. 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 die cutting the flowers and leaves from the Country Basket Bouquet from various colors of cardstock from my stash. I then did some ink blending on those pieces before assembling the flowers. I’ll list the colors used at the bottom of this post for your convenience. The background was created using the Nested Stitched Rectangles and some gold splatter for a bit of added interest.

The sentiment was cut once from gold cardstock and twice from Neenah to create a stacked sentiment. As a side note, I opted not to use the shadow portion of this die. I measured out the center and secured the sentiment in place with liquid glue, and then began adhering the florals and leaves in place. The larger flower in either corner was cut twice with a foam square in between those layers for some added dimension.

The entire panel was adhered to the card base with foam tape to finish up. I hope you like this project as much as I do. We all know that I love working with florals! Don’t forget to head over to Instagram to catch the hop! Who doesn’t love a chance to win a gift card, especially if it’s for craft supplies!

Together by Design Featuring Pinkfresh Studio

Together by Design is a monthly collaboration where a small group of designers all create with products from the same featured brand. Each of us chooses a favorite product and puts our own creative spin on it, showing just how many different ways one brand can inspire. Follow along, explore every project, and discover new designers and new favorites along the way.

This month’s featured brand:  Pinkfresh Studio

Here is a list of designers participating this month:

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

For this month’s Pinkfresh project, I used several different products, and I’ll list all of those at the bottom of this post. I began my project by gold foiling the Timeless Tulips and ink blending using the coordinating stencils. Once satisfied with those results, I trimmed it out with the coordinating die. I really love the product suites that Pinkfresh offers, and am noticing that more companies are jumping on that bandwagon.

My background was created using the Blanket Stitched Octagons with some ink blending and gold splatter. When I was foiling, I went ahead and foiled the sentiment and the small butterfly onto acetate. I’m not sure the Small Butterflies set is made anymore, unfortunately. Those were trimmed out using the coordinating die cuts as well.

The florals were adhered to the background using foam tape, the sentiment was glued in place and the butterfly was secured with strong double sided tape. The panel was adhered to the card base, and I trimmed off the edges with scissors to give it that shaped card look. Some clear drops were in order to finish this project up.

I hope you like it as much as I do! This is a beautiful color combination, and I love how it turned out! Stay tuned for next month where we will feature a different company, and you can see how we all have our own spin on things! Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp Basket Bunny

Hi Friend! Thanks for stopping by to check out my project featuring the new Basket Bunny from Simon’s latest release, Beautiful Moments. I actually used three new products on this card, so 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 the bunny and assembling the pieces. I did want a little bit of shading, so I used Shark and Cocoa ink for that. I wanted some flowers in the basket and used the new Country Basket Bouquet for those. I die cut a few of the flowers and centers from pink and yellow cardstock and did some light ink blending on those with Guava ink before assembling them.

I wanted a muted background and stamped the floral from the Pixie Dust set onto a panel using Misty Coast ink. Once satisfied with that, I trimmed it out using the A2 Scalloped Rectangles.

The panel was adhered to the card base and the bunny, basket and sentiment were adhered with foam tape. The pink flowers were secured using liquid glue to finish up.

A clean design for today’s project! I hope you enjoyed it, and I hope you’re enjoying seeing all of the inspiration from the new Beautiful Moments release. I hope you have a wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp Blended Daisies

Hello Friends, and thanks for joining me! The Beautiful Moments release is live, and I’m back with a project featuring the new Groovy Daisies with a soft blend. Let’s go ahead and get into the details.

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

I began this project by stamping the Groovy Daisies onto a panel using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat embossing it using clear embossing powder. I knew that I wanted to double heat emboss, and when I do this, I stamp the second time with VersaMark ink and heat again using clear powder. I do this because, during the heating process, I find that the paper warps a tiny bit and if I stamp again in black, it can sometimes be slightly off. By stamping the second time with VersaMark, you don’t notice that.

I really love how the ink blending turned out using Bubblegum, Lilac, Marine and Seafoam inks. Once done with the ink blending, I trimmed the panel down using the new A2 Nested Stitched Rectangles, and mounted it onto a black panel for contrast. The sentiment was cut once from Matte Silver cardstock and twice from black cardstock, while the shadow portion was cut four times. All of those were adhered together using liquid glue for a stacked sentiment. I added some matte silver pearls to the some of the flowers to finish up.

That does it for this one! I hope you like it, and I hope you’ll stop by and check out the entire Beautiful Moments release! Thanks again for swinging by, and I hope you have an awesome day!

Simon Says Stamp Leafy Thank You

Hello Friends, and thanks for stopping by to check out today’s project, which features one of my favorite older products. I love florals and leaves, and I regularly go to the Privet Branch, and I just love this color combo as well. Let’s run through the deets super quick!

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

I cut my background panel using the A2 Postage Rectangles and gold splattered that for added interest. The color combo used here is from the Color Cubes, and I just think they go together so well. If I’m being honest, I don’t know what two of these colors are, because they were already cut and stashed in the envelope with the die cut. I’ll link to the ones that I do know though.

The background was adhered to the card base using foam tape, and I arranged the leaves and secured those in place with liquid glue. The sentiment was stamped with VersaMark ink, heat embossed using white embossing powder and stacked for more dimension. I added a few gold embellishments to finish up.

If I have extra die cuts, I usually keep them with the die itself and that way, I can pull a card together pretty quickly sometimes. Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have a great day!

Simon Says Stamp Love You Watercolor Hearts

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back! Happy Valentine’s Day to you as well! I made several cards for today’s post using some watercolor hearts that I made using various Simon products. 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 taping down a large panel of watercolor paper, adding different shades of reds, pinks and an aqua color, which ended up making the purple color. I let the panel dry and used a stencil with various circles to add some white ink. Once those were dry, I outlined them with a Copic Multiliner and did some stamping using a couple of background stamps and VersaFine Onyx Black ink. I was unable to locate one of the stamps that I used, but any text stamp would work just fine. Once I was satisfied with the stamping, I did some gold splatter for added interest.

I pulled several heart die cuts, along with several other design die cuts and cut those. I was unable to find some of the die cuts that I used as well, and I apologize for that, but just use what’s already in your stash. I did edge some of the hearts with a gold leaf pen for some added interest and splattered my card bases and panel with black and gold acrylic inks. Some of the hearts were adhered using foam strips, while some were just glued directly to the panel or card base. The sentiments were cut from several different strip sets and adhered with glue or foam tape.

That does it for this post! I hope you like all of the cards as much as I do. I really had a lot of fun creating all of these projects, and am itching to create another watercolor panel to play with. I’ll list all of the products that I used below, just in case you’re interested. Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have an awesome day!

Simon Says Stamp Just Because Daisies

Hello Friends, and thanks for stopping by to check out today’s project featuring a couple of products from Simon, including the Tilted Daises. This was a quick one, so let’s zoom 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 the daisy pieces from white, yellow and green apple cardstock. I did some light ink blending on the flower portions using Honey and Shark inks before assembling them with liquid glue.

The background was stamped onto a panel using Misty Coast ink and trimmed down using the A2 Postage Rectangles. The stems were glued in place atop the panel, while the flowers were adhered using foam strips. The panel was adhered to the card base, and clear drops were added to finish up.

That does it for this one! Thanks again for joining me, and have a super awesome day!

Simon Says Stamp Love You Jumbled Hearts

Hello Crafty Friends, and thanks for stopping by! Today’s project is featuring the Jumbled Hearts Background Stamp and the Love You sentiment die cut. Both are oldies, but both are goodies! 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 stamping the background onto a panel of watercolor paper using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat setting that using Ranger Clear Embossing Powder. The panel was then taped to a board, and I sprinkled some Nuvo Shimmer Powders on it and spritzed with water. The colors that I used were Catherine Wheel and Cherry Bomb. Unfortunately, I was unable to find the Cherry Bomb on Simon’s website, but you might be able to find it elsewhere. I love these two colors of shimmer powders because of the different pinks, and yellows that you get, which in turn then creates some oranges.

Once the panel was dry, I used the A2 Postage Rectangles to trim it down, and then added some black to some of the hearts using a Copic Marker. The sentiment was cut once from glossy black cardstock and three times from regular black cardstock. Those were all adhered together for a stacked sentiment and then adhered to the panel using foam strips.

That does it for this project! A pretty simple and easy card, but I love the different colors mixed with the black sentiment. Thanks for joining me today, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

For this month’s project, I opted to use several products from Kristina including the Pretty Posies Background Stamp, along with Pretty Posies Dies, Written Words Stamps and the Long Line Leaves Dies. My design ended up being a twofer, hence using multiple sentiment sets. Let’s go through the detail

I began by stamping the Pretty Posies Background onto a panel of black cardstock using VeraMark Ink and heat setting that using Ranger Princess Gold Embossing Powder. I then took my scissors and fussy cut around the flowers creating two separate panels.

Truth be told, I could have cut the panel apart better and ended up with a larger second panel, but what was done was done! Before adhering the panels with foam tape, I did gold splatter both card bases, stamped the Feel Better Soon sentiment with VersaFine Black Onyx ink and heat set that using Ranger Clear Embossing Powder.

I die cut the sentiment for the other card three times using the same black cardstock for a stacked sentiment look, along with three small flowers for added interest. To finish up, I added some gold gems to the centers of the flowers.

I hope you enjoyed this project as much as I did! I don’t often do twofer projects, but am pleasantly surprised when it happens that way! Stay tuned next month where we will feature a different brand that all of us will be creating with! Stay awesome, friend and have an awesome day!

Happy Happy Friday! I recently got the Artful Palette set from @simonsaysstamp and had to get busy creating a few cards using various patterned papers from my hoarding stash! I can’t be the only one that hoards patterned papers, right?!? These cards were quite fun to make, and I’m considering making a few more! I hope you all have a great day and a wonderful weekend! I have so many stamp sets that I haven’t used, and I’ve been trying to make my way through some of them! Today’s project is featuring one of those sets, it’s the Oh, Shiitake set from @simonsaysstamp. An oldie but goodie for sure! I love the addition of the stencil for this product suite, because sometimes I just don’t feel like coloring! Happy Monday, Friends! Today’s post is featuring the Tiny Flora Embossing Folder from @simonsaysstamp Beautiful Moments release. I embossed the panel onto glossy cardstock and used to brayer to add the pink. In the process of brayering, the bottom portion of my panel had ink splotches that I didn’t like, so I just ripped it off and wet with what I had. Definitely a case of making something good out of something bad. I hope you all have a fabulous day! It’s Friday and I’m back with more cards featuring the Groovy Daisies from @simonsaysstamp. Catch all of the deets over on my blog at redsas.co. Hope you all have a great day and a fabulous weekend! Happiest Wednesday to you!
