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!

Simon Says Stamp ilysm

Hello Crafty Friends, and thanks for stopping by! I’m back today with a project featuring two new products from Simon’s latest release, Happy Camper. I created this card using the new ilysm and the smallest die from the More A7 Rectangles. I created a card for the last release using the smallest die from the previous rectangles set, and wanted to revisit that with this new set. Let’s go through the details.

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

I began this card by cutting that smallest die from the More A7 Rectangles set from various colors of cardstock from my stash. I also went ahead and cut the background using the Postage Stamp Edge Frames and the sentiment from gold and white. I gold splattered the background and assembled the sentiment using liquid glue.

Once my background panel was dry, I arranged the rectangles and used Press n Seal to hold those in place while I put glue on the back. I flipped the rectangles over and adhered them to the panel, along with the sentiment.

The completed panel was adhered to the card base using foam tape and a few gold metallic pearls were added to finish it up.

That does it for this one! Another simple one, but I really like the color palette. Thanks so much for joining me, and don’t forget to stay awesome, friend!

Lovely Heart Grids Featuring Your Paper Insider

Hello Crafty Friends and welcome back! I recently received Box 11 from Your Paper Insider, and went to work on creating a few cards! If you haven’t looked into Your Paper Insider, I encourage you to do so! It’s a quarterly subscription box filled to the brim with interesting and gorgeous papers from all over the world! Let’s go ahead and go through the details for this set!

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

All of the cardstock for both of these cards came from Box 11 with the exception of the black. I thought the pink and purple paired nicely with this awesome purple glitter paper! I began this project by die cutting the SSS Printmaking Hearts once from all three of the colors.

For one of the cards, I opted to splatter the card base with Distress Oxide Sprays in Picked Raspberry and Wilted Violet, while the hearts for the second card got the splatter. I just wanted to mix up the design a little between the two cards.

I placed foam strips on the back of the hearts and secured them to the card bases, mixing up the pattern, but still having the glitter heart in the center. The sentiments were stamped onto black cardstock using VersaMark Ink and heat set using SSS Detail White Embossing Powder. They were trimmed out along with two additional cuts for a stacked sentiment, and adhered directly to the heart using liquid glue.

That does it for these projects! I hope you like them! They’re both simple projects, but sometimes simple is good! Don’t forget to check out Your Paper Insider! Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp All My Love

Hello Friends, and thanks for joining me! There’s a super fun Instagram Hop going on today to celebrate the Simon Favorite Things release! Definitely check that out and comment along the hop for your chance to win a $25 gift card at each stop! Today’s project is featuring the new Parisian Frame and Pretty Bows, 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.

I began this project by stamping the Parisian Frame pieces using VersaFine Onyx Black ink. I then did some light ink blending over the top using Bubblegum ink. I trimmed the frame down and adhered it to white foam and then trimmed the foam down. I also darkened up the stamped flowers with Copic Marker R85. At this point, I wasn’t sure where the card was going, so I went ahead and die cut some flowers and leaves using the Elegant Blossom Branch, Cosmos Duo and the Budding Branches.

While I was cutting, I went ahead and cut the centers of the flowers from black cardstock as well. I did some light ink blending on the pieces using Bubblegum, Carnation, Celery and Seafoam inks. I splattered the card base with black acrylic ink and cut a panel using the Scalloped Rectangles. The panel was adhered to the card base first and then the Parisian Frame was adhered atop that.

The leaves were adhered first, followed by the flowers. Bubblegum Dazzling Gems were then added, and I decided that one of the Pretty Bows would add a nice touch, so I cut that once from Neenah and once from gold and adhered those together. The bow was then added just underneath one of the flowers to finish up.

That does it for this one! I hope you’ll stop by and check out the entire Favorite Things release over on Simon’s website! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a fabulous day!

Simon Says Stamp Masculine Outline Hearts

Hello Friends and thanks for stopping by! Today’s project is featuring the Outline Hearts Stencil from one of Simon’s latest releases, To Love. This is a super simple project, so let’s get right to it!

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

I began this project by deciding on a color scheme using a card from The Color Cubes. Once that was decided, I pulled some inks that best matched and those ended up being Dew, Mist, Cabbage and Sage. I used a Copic Multiliner to add heart doodles before trimming it down using the Postage Stamp Edge Frames.

The Love Ya sentiment was cut once from Black Glossy cardstock and twice from black cardstock, while the shadow was cut twice from Neenah 110. All of those pieces were adhered together before adding them to the heart panel using foam strips. This was then added to the card base to finish up.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it! It was a quick and easy one, but I absolutely love this color scheme! Don’t forget to check out the To Love and To Be Loved release over on simon’s website. Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have an awesome day!

Simon Says Stamp Valentine Chocolates

Hello Friends and welcome back! Thanks so much for stopping by to check out today’s project featuring the Sweet Treats stamp and stencil combo. I kind of got on a short clean and simple kick this month, and today’s project falls right in line! Let’s get to the deets!

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

I began this project by stamping the chocolate box from the Sweet Treats set onto a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat setting that with Ranger Clear Embossing Powder. I then used the coordinating stencil to add the color using Gingerbread, Cocoa, Watermelon and Cherry inks.

Once the color was added, I trimmed out the box and added some pink and holographic hearts atop some of the chocolates for added interest. The background was created using the Postage Stamp Edge Frames along with a splatter from the Cherry ink pad. This was then adhered to the card base using foam tape, while the heart box was adhered using foam squares. To finish up, I glued the sentiment, which is from the Reverse Love Sentiment Strips, directly onto the heart.

That does it for this one! Again, a simple card, but it’s cute nonetheless. I hope you enjoyed it, and I hope it inspires you to get crafty in your space! Thanks again for hanging out with me, and I hope you have yourself a fabulous day!

Simon Says Stamp Sending You Love

Hello and welcome back! I’m so thrilled that you stopped by to hang out with me for a few minutes! Today’s project is featuring the new Pixie Dust Stamp set from Simon’s latest release To Be Loved. Let’s go ahead and get right into it!

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

I began this project by stamping the floral image from this set twice onto a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat setting that with Ranger Clear Embossing Powder. I then colored one of the images using Copic Markers in BG96, BG10, BG53, BG72, G94, YG63, Y08, Y18 and Y38.

When I stamped the floral image twice, I was not sure at this point what I was doing with the card. It was a, “I’m going to start and see what happens” kind of project! Once I finished coloring the one image, I cut it out, and decided that I would use the other stamped image as a background of sorts. I used the Postage Stamp Edge Frames to determine placement and went ahead and trimmed it down.

I then added some “black splatter” using a Copic Multiliner, because I wanted to control where the splatter landed. I adhered the colored portions of the flowers atop the panel using foam squares and then ran it back through the die cutting machine with the postage edge again so that both layers had the pattern.

This is a left over gold foiled sentiment that I had in my stash, which is from the Reverse Bad Day Good Vibes Sentiment Strip set, that I added with foam strips. The panel was added to the card base and along with some gold metallic pearls to finish up.

Another project in the books! I hope you enjoyed it! I used to enjoy using my Copic Markers a great deal, but have kind of gotten out of the habit, so it was nice to pick them up again for a relatively quick project. Don’t forget to check out the entire To Be Loved release over on Simon’s website! Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have an amazing day!

Simon Says Stamp More Than Chocolate

Hello Crafty Friends and welcome back to my blog! Thanks so much for stopping by to check out today’s project featuring the new Sweet Treats Stamp and Stencil, along with the Groovy Love You More die cut. Let’s jump right into the details, shall we?

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

I began this project by stamping several of the elements from the Sweet Treats stamp set onto Neenah 110lb cardstock using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat setting it with Ranger Clear Embossing Powder. I then went to work adding color using the coordinating stencil set. The inks used were Gingerbread, Cocoa, Gravel, Seafoam, Surf, Watermelon and Cherry. The piece of candy was colored using Copic Markers BG10 and BG15. I also added a touch of shading on the cupcake using RV13.

Once all of the color was added, I trimmed them out. I did decide to add a touch of sparkle to the lollipop sprinkles using a Ranger Emboss It Pen and Simon Detail Sparkle Embossing Powder. I die cut the Groovy Love You More sentiment once from silver cardstock and cut the shadow portion once from Neenah and adhered those pieces together. I knew that I wanted to add the sub-sentiment, so I stamped that onto black cardstock using VersaMark ink and heat set it using Detail White Embossing Powder. The sentiment actually says ‘more than chocolate,’ but I trimmed off the ‘more’ part.

Now that I have all of the elements for the card, I needed to figure out a background. I went ahead and splattered my card base using black acrylic ink and decided on a heart background. I used the Stacked Hearts die and cut that three times and adhered them to the card base, cutting off any extras. I adhered all of the treats using foam strips and then added the sentiments with more foam strips.

That finishes up this project! I hope you enjoyed it! This project is well outside of my comfort zone, but it was a fun project nonetheless. Don’t forget to check out the entire To Be Loved release over on Simon’s website! Thanks again for hanging out with me, and I hope you have a fabulous day!

Simon Says Stamp Simple Love You

Hello and welcome back! Simon’s brand new release, To Be Loved, is live today and I’m back with a project featuring the new Funky Hearts Stencil. It may not look like I used the stencil on this card, but I assure you that I did! It’s just a little reminder that there are many ways to use a stencil! Let’s go into it, shall we?

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

I began this card by placing the stencil onto a scrap panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock and applying a layer of Tacky When Dry paste. I actually did this twice, because I wasn’t sure if I wanted to use one heart or two. I set that aside to dry while I worked on the rest of the card.

I wanted this to be a more clean and simple design, so I went ahead and splattered my card base with gold acrylic ink and put that over with the hearts to dry. I used the Clipping Heart and die cut that once from Neenah, and I went ahead and cut a frame using the Stitched Rectangles. Once the hearts were dry, I applied some gold gilding flakes and rubbed those in to make sure that I have good coverage. Those were then fussy cut for their use on the card.

The frame was adhered to the card base using foam strips, and the white hearts were adhered inside the frame using liquid glue. The gold hearts were adhered in the middle using the same foam strips, as well as the tiny sentiment, which is from the Reverse Love Sentiment Strips.

That does it for this one! It’s a super simple card, but I quite like how it turned out! Thanks again for stopping by, and don’t forget to check out the entire To Be Loved release over on Simon’s website. Have yourself a wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp Mother’s Leafy Cluster

Hello and welcome back crafty friends! I’m so glad that you stopped by to take a look at today’s project featuring the new Mother die from Simon’s latest release, Be Bold. Let’s go ahead and run through the deets for this one, shall we?

Main Products:

I began this card by selecting a color combo from The Color Cubes and stamping the SSS Leafy Cluster onto a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat setting that with Ranger Clear Embossing Powder. I then used the coordinating stencils to do the ink blending using SSS Pawsitively Saturated Inks in Blush, Petunia and Watermelon, along with Pinkfresh inks in Atlantis and Metropolis. Once the ink blending was complete, I used the coordinating dies to cut them out.

I cut the SSS Mother die once from SSS Matte Silver cardstock and twice from Neenah 110lb cardstock, and I also cut the shadow portion of the die twice and well. All of those pieces were adhered together using liquid glue and set aside while I worked on the remaining elements of the card. I always seem to need more leaves on my cards, so I opted to use the SSS Etched Meadow Flower and Leaves, along with the SSS Flower Bundle and cut some of those using the same matte silver cardstock.

For the background, I used the PFS Diagonal Stitched Rectangles to cut a panel of black cardstock, and splattered it using white acrylic ink. I then used the SSS A2 Thin Frames to cut a frame from the same silver cardstock. Now for the assembly! I glued the silver frame in place, glued the silver leaves in place and then glued the Leafy Clusters in place.

The sentiment was also glued in place. I chose a sub-sentiment from the SSS Reverse Love Sentiments Strips and adhered that using SSS 3D Foam Strips so that it would match the height of the main sentiment. I added a few PFS Matte Silver Pearls before adhering the panel to the card base using foam tape.

That does it for this one! I really like this color combo, and am enjoying The Color Cubes, especially when I get stuck on putting colors together. I hope you enjoyed this project too! Head on over to Simon’s website to check out the entire Be Bold release! I’d love to know your favorites! Thanks again for stopping by, and don’t forget to stay awesome, friend! Have a wonderful day!
