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!

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!

Spellbinders Layered Poppies

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back! Today’s project is featuring the Layered Wildflowers along with the Scallop & Stitched Edge Ovals from the Spellbinders May releases. Let’s go ahead and get into the details.

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

While this set has three different flowers, I opted to only use one of them. I began this project by die cutting the flower pieces from Poppy, Fern, Beeswax and black cardstock. I did some ink blending on the petals and centers using Cranberry and Honey inks. Once the ink blending was complete, I assembled the flowers and set them aside while I worked on the remaining elements.

I used the larger scallop oval to cut from black cardstock and used one of the stitched ovals to cut a smaller panel from Neenah 110lb cardstock. I used the Journal Grid to add texture to that white panel for some added interest, as well as some black splatter. I did go ahead and splatter the card base as well to tie everything together.

The sentiment was gold foiled onto black cardstock, and I added foam strips to the back of that. The stems were glued into place and the flowers were adhered with foam strips, as well as the sentiment for a bit of added dimension.

That does it for this project! I love how these poppies turned out, and can totally see myself using these again in the future. Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have a great day!

Simon Says Stamp In My Thoughts Botanical

Hello Crafters, and welcome back to my blog! I appreciate you stopping by to check out today’s project featuring the Big Botanicals from Simon’s latest You Are My Favorite release. Let’s not waste time, and get right to the details!

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

I began this project by stamping the flower portion of this stamp using Sunbeam ink, and the leaf portion using Limelicious ink. I just used a Post-It to mask off the areas, so nothing super technical. I then used Copic Markers Y15, Y18, YG05, YG17 and YG23 to add color to the stamped image. I also went in with some colored pencils to add some extra detail to the shaded areas.

Once I was done with the coloring, I fussy cut the image out. As a note, there are coordinating dies for this stamp set, in case you aren’t a big fan of fussy cutting. My background panel was cut using the Postage Stamp Edge Frames and splattered with some gold ink. Once the splatter was dry, I stamped the sentiment, which is from the I’m Sorry set, using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat set using Ranger Clear Embossing Powder.

My panel was adhered to the card base using foam tape, and the floral was adhered using foam strips. I did add a few gold embellishments to tie everything together.

That does it for this project! A relatively clean and simple design for this one. I hope you enjoyed it, and I hope it inspires you to get crafty in your space! Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have an awesome day!

Pinkfresh Leafy Butterfly Bliss

Hello Friends, and thanks so much for joining me! I recently received a few new goodies from Pinkfresh and wanted to play! After creating my dark navy and gold card, I wanted to give a dark card another go! The Pinkfresh vibe is usually pastel, but you can create some serious gorgeousness using dark colors as well. This card is a combination of pastel and dark, and I hope you like it!

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

I began this project by gold foiling the Joyful Day Press Plate twice onto Neenah 110lb cardstock. I then used the coordinating stencils to add color using Aquamarine and Tidal Pond inks. Once that was done, I used the coordinating die cut to trim them out. I did go back and add some very light ink blending to the edges of the leaves, because I did not want the stark white edges against my dark background.

I then gold foiled the new Butterfly Bliss Press Plate onto Neenah and ink blended those using Soft Lilac, Sheer Freesia, Hydrangea, Lavender and Licorice inks. I die cut the butterflies using the coordinating dies along with a purple layer as well. Those two were adhered together and set aside.

The background was cut using the Double Stitched Rectangles from Forest cardstock and then gold splattered for some added interest. The sentiment, which is from the Joyful Day set, was gold foiled onto the same Forest cardstock and trimmed out along with two additional cuts for a stacked sentiment.

I adhered the green panel to the card base and I placed pieces of foam strips on the back of the ink blended leaves and adhered those in place, along with the butterfly, trimming off the excess. The sentiment was secured in place using liquid glue, as were the gold metallic pearls. I decided that I wanted some tiny flowers to adorn the leaves, so I cut some of those using Spellbinders Floral Spray from Teal Topaz and Plum cardstocks.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it! I really do love incorporating dark colors into a Pinkfresh project just to give it a different feel! Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp Hello Floral Tag

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back! So glad you stopped by to check out today’s post featuring the new Scalloped Floral Tag from Simon’s latest release, You Are My Favorite. Have you checked out the release yet? I’d love to know your favorites in the comments! Let’s get right into 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 die cutting the tag pieces from Neenah 110lb and gold cardstock. I then used the Hanging Leaf Ring set to cut flowers and leaves from Cotton Candy and Sage cardstock. I did some ink blending on those pieces using Bubblegum and Sage inks, and then assembled the flowers and added some Dazzling Gems to the centers.

I die cut the background using the Chunky A2 Scalloped Rectangles set, gold splattered that and set it aside to dry while I worked on the sentiment. I die cut the hello, which is from the Handlettered Greetings, once from gold cardstock and twice from Neenah, adhering them together for a stacked sentiment.

The background was adhered to the card base, the leaves were glued in place, the tag was adhered using foam tape and the flowers were adhered using a combination of liquid glue and foam strips.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it! Head on over to Simon’s website to check out all of the new products from the You Are My Favorite release! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a fabulous day!

Simon Says Stamp Welcome Baby

Hello Friends, and welcome back! Today’s post is featuring the new Duck Trio from Simon’s latest release, You Are My Favorite. I do want to note that I used a sentiment die cut that is no longer available, so I will link to something similar in the list below. 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 Duck Trio from Neenah 110lb, black and yellow cardstock. Once those were cut, I assembled the ducks and set them aside while I worked on the other elements of the card.

I die cut a background panel using the Nested Postage Labels & Tag and splattered that with black ink. The sentiment, which is no longer available, was die cut once from black glossy cardstock and three times from regular black, and adhered together for a stacked sentiment.

The sentiment was adhered to the background panel, trimming off the ends, while the ducks were adhered using foam strips for added dimension. Everything was then adhered to the card base to finish up.

That does it for this one! I hope you enjoyed it! My card was made into a baby card, but really, any sentiment of your choosing would work well too! Don’t forget to check out the entire You Are My Favorite release over on Simon’s website! Thanks for joining me, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp Love & Hugs Botanical

Hello Friends, and welcome back to my blog! The latest Simon release, You Are My Favorite, is live and I’m back with a project featuring the new Big Botanicals. Let’s go ahead and get right into the details since this one had lots of steps.

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

I began this project by putting a panel of mixed media paper in my splat box and adding Distress Oxide Sprays and Spritzes until I was satisfied. The sprays used were Wilted Violet, Villainous Potion, Prize Ribbon and Rustic Wilderness. The Spritzes used were Wilted Violet, Twisted Citron and Peeled Paint. I did dry my paper between layers of color so that I could build upon each other.

Once satisfied with the panel, I stamped one of the florals from the Big Botanicals set onto the panel using VersaFine Onyx Black and heat set it using Ranger Clear Embossing Powder. I did use a couple of the other elements from the stamp set and added those as well. I also used the TH Stitches set for some other added elements. I also used the TH Digits stencil along with some Ranger Translucent Crackle Paste to add some texture.

I set that aside to dry while I worked on the other elements for the card. I stamped the sentiment, which is from the Mix & Match Butterflies set, onto black cardstock using VersaMark ink and heat set that using Simon Detail White Embossing Powder. It was trimmed out using the coordinating die several times for a stacked sentiment. I used the Stitching Butterflies set to cut and assemble one of the butterflies to add once everything was dry.

For even more texture, I used the TH Paper Distress tool to rough up the edges of the panel, and I used a water brush to paint the floral and dry it with paper towels to lift some of the ink from those areas. My panel was adhered to the card base with foam tape, while the butterfly and sentiment were adhered with foam strips.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it! I never do mixed media projects because I’m not very good at them, but I enjoy them just the same! Don’t forget to check out the entire You Are My Favorite release over on Simon’s website! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have an awesome day!

Simon Says Stamp White Fusion Thanks

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back! Today’s project is featuring the new White Fusion stencil from Simon’s latest Rain or Shine release. Let’s go ahead and jump into the details.

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

I began this project by stenciling the White Fusion leaf onto a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock using Simon’s Sage, Cabbage, Artichoke and Kale inks, along with Pinkfresh Eucalyptus ink. Once I was done with all of the stenciling, I fussy cut the leaf out, and added some gold detail with a Krylon Gold Leafing pen.

My next step was to cut a panel using the Postage Stamp Edge Frames and splatter that with gold acrylic ink. I die cut the Abundant Leaf Background from Green Apple cardstock and did some ink blending along the edges using those same green inks. I adhered the background panel to the card base using foam tape, and then adhered the White Fusion leaf with foam tape as well.

The Abudant Leaf Background was trimmed apart and secured with liquid glue underneath the larger leaf. I die cut the Simple Thanks once from gold cardstock and twice from Neenah 110lb and adhered all of those together before being adhered to the card. To finish up, I added some Pinkfresh Gold Metallic Pearls to pull everything together.

That does it for this project! I appreciate you stopping by, and I hope that you found a little bit of inspiration! Have a wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp Thank You Blossom

Hello Friends, and thanks so much for stopping by! I’m back with a project featuring the new Thank You Basics from Simon’s latest release, Rain or Shine. Let’s go ahead and go 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 die cutting the Elegant Blossom Branch from Neenah 110lb cardstock and ink blending the pieces using Guava, Limelicious and Pearfection inks. I did cut the stem portion two additional times and adhered those together, along with the pieces of the flowers with liquid glue.

The background was cut using the Postage Stamp Edge Frames, which is one of my favorites, and then splattered using gold acrylic ink. Once dry, I stamped the sentiment from the Thank You Basics set using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat set it with Ranger Clear Embossing Powder. The panel was then adhered to the card base using foam tape, the stem was glued in place and the flowers were adhered with additional pieces of foam tape. To finish up, I added a few clear drops for some shine.

That does it for this one! I really love the clean and simple look of this card. Clean and simple doesn’t always come easy for me, so I do enjoy when an idea comes together! Don’t forget to check out the entire Rain or Shine release over on Simon’s website. Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have a fabulous day!

Simon Says Stamp Rainbow Mod Plants

Hello Friends and welcome back! Thanks for joining me for today’s project featuring the new Mod Plants from Simon’s latest release, Rain or Shine. You’ve had a few day to peruse the release, what are your favorites? Let me know in the comments! 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 pulling my Bubblegum, Sunbeam and Seafoam inks. I picked out one plant from this set to do a repeat rainbow pattern. Once the stamp was place in the Misti, I inked the top portion of the stamp with the Bubblegum ink and used a blending brush to soften the edge of the ink. I did end up stamping several times to get good coverage. I then inked the middle portion of the stamp with the Sunbeam ink, softening the edges as before. I then inked the bottom portion of the stamp with the Seafoam ink, softening the edges of the ink again.

Once I was finished with one leaf, I moved it to the next area on my panel and repeated those stamping steps each time. When finished, I used the Postage Stamp Edge Frames to trim the panel down. This was then adhered to the card base using foam tape. The Sending Love & Hugs sentiment was cut once from gold cardstock and twice from Neenah 110lb cardstock, and the shadow portion was also cut twice. All of those pieces were adhered together using liquid glue and then added to the card with foam strips to finish up.

That does it for this one! It’s a simple design, but I really like how it turned out! Thank you so much for joining me today! I hope you have a fabulous day, and don’t forget to stay awesome!
