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!

Crafty time this week! It’s Friday, we made it, and I’m back with a super duper, simple card using an alcohol panel and a cover die cut that were just hanging out in my stash! We all know that I love a good floral or leafy card, and today’s project goes down the leafy path using the @simonsaysstamp Privet Branch. And who doesn’t love a good color combo as well?!? You can find all of the details over on my blog at redsas.co. I hope you all have a fabulous Wednesday! Happy Monday, Friends! I was asked recently to create some sympathy cards, and I always find these cards difficult to make, but I kept it toned down and simple. I feel like white on white or white with grey is peaceful ad soothing, especially during a difficult time. Happy Friday, and happy early Valentine’s to you! The other day I created a large watercolor panel with some stamping and splatter to cut all kinds of @simonsaysstamp hearts from to create four different projects. I love how each project turned out, and I’m itching to create another panel with some different die cuts. There’s a blog post if you’d like more details over at redsas.co. I hope you all have a great day and a wonderful weekend! Happiest Wednesday, Friends! I’m back with another simple card design using an embossing folder and white ink along with a brayer. I love the hint of white on the edges of the flowers paired with a coordinating sentiment and gems for a little pop of color. Hope you all have an 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!

Simon Says Stamp Peaceful Bird

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back! We are celebrating the DieCember release with a super fun Instagram Hop, so be sure to check that out for your chance to win a gift card to the Simon’s website! Who doesn’t love winning gift cards, am I right?! Today’s project is featuring the new Flourish Bird in an icy surrounding along with the EZ Strips Christmas stamp, 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 die cutting the bird twice from red cardstock, and ink blended it using Brick ink. Once done with the ink blending, I assembled the bird with foam tape in between the two layers. I then got started on the spruce sprigs.

The greenery was cut several times from Fern and Forest cardstock, adding the Diamond Dust to them using liquid glue. Those were all set aside to dry while I worked on the rest of the card. The sentiment was stamped using VersaMark Ink, heat set using Princess Gold Embossing Powder and trimmed out using the EZ Strips Rounded Rectangles die.

The background was created using a panel of the forest cardstock that was gold splattered and the Whirl Diamond Plate cut from the same cardstock. That was adhered in place and I began adhering the sprigs in place as well. Some of the sprigs were trimmed off and tucked in different place for a more full appearance. The bird and sentiment were adhered using foam tape to finish up.

That does it for this one! Sorry if you guys are tired of the icy leaves, I’ve just been having so much fun making them! Don’t forget to join the Instagram Hop! Comment along the hop for your chance to win a gift card. Thanks so much for joining me, and I hope you have an awesome day!

Simon Says Stamp Thanks Leaf Ring

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome to DieCember! It’s my favorite month after STAMPtember! Today’s project is featuring the new Classic Leaf Ring in super fun colors, 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.

This die set contains the leaf ring along with a separate leaf die, so I cut the leaf ring once from Rainforest, Sage, Sunshine and gold cardstock. I also cut the separate leaves twice from all of those colors as well. My background was created using the Wistful Leaves Embossing Folder along with the A2 Postage Rectangles.

I wanted some interest on the background, so I splattered it with Raindrop ink before adhering the leaf rings. I adhered one ring down and adhered the next one offset slightly, until they were all adhered. I then went back and added the separate leaves around to make it fuller. I went ahead and adhered the panel to the card base using foam tape and then adhered the sentiment, which was cut once from gold cardstock and tree times from white cardstock.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! I always love creating projects with leaves, and this one was no exception. Don’t forget to check out the entire DieCember release over on Simon’s website. Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have an awesome day!

Simon Says Stamp Triangle Trees

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back! I’m so glad you stopped by for today’s project featuring the new Triangle Whirl Trees from Simon’s latest release, And Everything Nice. There is a Triangle Tab die cut that these trees work with, but I wanted to create a card instead, so 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 die cutting the trees several times from Green Apple, Fern and Forest cardstock colors. I then did some ink blending on the edges of the lighter trees using Field and Artichoke inks.

Once I was done with my ink blending, I went ahead and gold splattered all of the trees. While those were drying, I die cut the Simple Peace once from gold cardstock and twice from the Forest cardstock, adhering all of those together for a stacked sentiment. I cut a panel of cardstock and arranged my trees and then used Press n Seal to pick them all up.

I applied liquid glue to the back of the trees and adhered them to the panel, trimming off any excess. I did have to go back in and apply glue under all of the overlapping layers to make sure that everything was secure. I adhered the panel to the card base and glued the sentiment in place to finish up.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it! I really love the look of all the layered trees on this one. Don’t forget to check out the entire And Everything Nice release over on Simon’s website. Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp Ride or Die

Hello Friends, and thanks so much for stopping by! The And Everything Nice release is live, and I’m back with a different project! I received the Angel Wings Stencil in my package, and the only thing that I could think was to pair it with a skull/skeleton. Don’t ask why, it’s just what happened! I have no explanation, so I just went with it!

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

I began this project by working on the wings first using grey, red and pink inks. I’ll list all of the supplies at the bottom of this post, if you’re interested at all. I pulled out a panel of watercolor paper and got to work on my inky background using various sprays.

I will add that I stamped some things onto this panel, but you can’t even really tell in the pictures. I think the black ink was absorbed into all of the sprays that I used. I also used some embossing folders from Sizzix, which aren’t even made anymore. I’m not very good at mixed media, so there’s that! I did use my sewing machine to sew a very crooked zig zag line down one side of the panel for some added interest.

I stamped the skull and skeleton using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat set those using clear embossing powder. I added some shading using Copic Markers as well as adding some color to tone down the white using a water brush and Fawn ink. I fussy cut those pieces and added some metal gears using liquid glue.

The edges of the panel were distressed before adding the wings, skelton and skull with foam tape. The red heart was cut using the Clipping Heart die, and the sentiment was made on my computer. The inky panel was added to a black panel before being added to the card base to finish up.

I’ve said it before, I’m not very good at mixed media, but it’s fun to try! Maybe I’ll get around to using the Angel Wings Stencil for its intended purpose one day! Head on over to Simon’s website to check out the full And Everything Nice release! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have an awesome day!

Simon Says Stamp Peaceful Nordic Tree

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back! Today’s project is featuring the new Frosty Nordic Tree from Simon’s latest release, Sugar & Spice. I love a red and aqua color combo, so that’s where I went with this one. Let’s get into 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 tree pieces three times from Neenah cardstock. I cut three times, because I wasn’t sure if I was going to use all three or just one. As you can see, I opted to use just one. Once I was done with the die cutting, I did some ink blending on the bottom of the pieces using Dew and Mist inks.

The tree pieces were adhered together using liquid glue, and I decided that I wanted the tree to in fact, be frosty. I added some liquid glue to the lines on the tree and sprinkled clear glitter over it. That was set aside to dry while I worked on the other pieces of the card.

I die cut the peace three times from red cardstock, as well as a heart from the Clipping Heart die cut. I used the A2 Postage Rectangles to cut a panel and splatter it with the Mist ink. The tree and heart were adhered using foam tape, while the sentiment was glued directly to the panel to finish up.

That does it for this one! A clean and simple design, but I like how this one turned out! Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have an amazing day!

Simon Says Stamp Snowy Plaque Slide

Hello Friends, and welcome back! It’s been a little bit! I was super busy creating for the STAMPtember collab sets, and took a smidge of a break. I’m back today with a card featuring the new Plaque Slides from Simon’s latest release, Sugar & Spice. Let’s get to the details!

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

I went into this project knowing that I wanted to make a shaker card, so I used the A2 Scalloped Rectangles to cut the frame. I then used snowflakes from the Snowflake Season set to stamp onto acetate using white ink and heat embossed using clear embossing powder. For the background, I remembered that I had some Color Blend Cardstock hanging around, so I also cut that using the A2 Scalloped Rectangles.

The slide was created using silver cardstock and the new Plaque Slides die cut along with the new Plaque Slides Christmas stamp set. I used the same white ink and embossing powder for the sentiment. I wanted the slide to be a bit more sturdy, so I cut it an additional four times from Neenah and glued all of those together.

The Lilac ink paired perfectly with the Color Blend cardstock, so I splattered my card base with that and set that aside to dry while I worked on the shaker. I glued the acetate to the frame and used foam tape to build the walls of the shaker. I sprinkled in some Diamond Dust and adhered the purple panel in place. My ribbon was woven in place and secured using liquid glue before everything was adhered to the card bae to finish up.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it! Based on the name of this new Christmas stamp set, I have to believe there will be other sets coming in the future! Don’t forget to head on over to check out the entire Sugar & Spice release! Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp Halloween Bats

Hello Crafty Friends, and thanks for joining me! How’s your STAMPtember going? Today’s project is featuring the new Halloween Basics set along with the older Big Bat set. 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 stamping the flying bats onto a panel of light blue cardstock using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat setting it with clear embossing powder. I actually did that step twice to achieve a smoother finish on the bats.

I then ink blended the edges of the stamped panel using Sky, Dusk, Night and Galaxy inks. Since I started with a light blue panel, I really only needed to ink the edges. I used a deckle edge die to trim the panel down before giving it a good dose of white splatter.

The sentiment, which is from the Big Bat set, was die cut once from black glitter cardstock and twice from regular black cardstock. I also cut a small bat from the glitter cardstock as well. The panel was adhered to the card base with foam tape, and the sentiment and bat were glued directly to the panel to finish up.

A pretty simple card for today! I don’t normally make Halloween cards, but I enjoyed the blue ink blending to create a somewhat night time scene. Don’t forget to check out the entire STAMPtember release! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have an awesome day!

Simon Says Stamp Floral Love & Hugs

Hello Friends and welcome back! I hope you’re enjoying STAMPtember so far! Today’s post is featuring the new Stitched Flowers Embossing Folder, 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 embossing a panel of black cardstock in the folder and trimming it down slightly smaller than an A2 card. I then used these super awesome metallic rub-ons to add the gold color to the panel using my finger. There are lots of fun colors in this palette, and I really want to try another one in a different color.

Once I was done with the rub-ons, I die cut the sentiment once from black glossy cardstock, once from black and once from a scrap of cardstock that would coordinate with the metallic. I also cut the shadow portion twice and stacked all of those together.

My panel was adhered to a black panel for contrast, the sentiment was adhered using foam strips and some black gems were added to the centers of the flowers to finish up.

That does it for this one! I hope you enjoyed it! Don’t forget to head over to Simon’s website to check out the entire STAMPtember release, and stay tuned for tomorrow as we are having a huge blog celebration! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a wonderful day!
