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!

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! A simple floral? Yes, please! This one was created with just a handful of products in soft, muted tones. There’s a blog post that you can check out, if you’re interested, at redsas.co. I hope you all have a wonderful Monday! Happy Saturday, Friends! I watched along yesterday during @jennifermcguireink and @simonsaysstamp Textures & Techniques class. I didn’t have the class kit, but I jotted down a few notes and quickly made this super cute card using supplies from my stash.

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!
