Simon Says Stamp Cool Birthday Penguins

Hey there and welcome back! Today’s post is featuring the new Cool Birthday stamp set from Simon’s latest Sugar & Spice release! I don’t often do clean and simple cards, but that’s what I was going for here. 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 penguins from the new Cool Birthday stamp set using VersaFine Black Onyx ink and heat setting them using clear embossing powder. That’s my preferred method if I know that I’m going to be using Copic markers. Once those were stamped, I went ahead and colored them and fussy cut the images out.

While I was stamping, I went ahead and stamped the sentiment onto black cardstock using VersaMark ink and heat set that using Detail White Embossing Powder. I trimmed it down and put foam tape on the back, along with the penguins.

I gave my card base a light splatter of black before adhering two of the Snowflake Swirl die cuts. The excess was trimmed off, and I adhered the penguins and sentiment to finish up.

A super simple project for today! I hope you enjoyed it! Don’t forget to check out the entire Sugar & Spice release over on Simon’s website. Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have an awesome day!

Simon Says Stamp Patterned Birthday Floral

Hello Friends and welcome back! Today’s post is once again featuring the Tattered Daisy from Simon’s latest release, Moments In Time. It also includes this new Giggle Happy Birthday sentiment! I had a lot of fun with this die cut and made too many projects, but florals make me happy, so there’s that! Let’s get into the details, shall we?

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

I knew that I wanted to make a patterned paper daisy, so I rummaged through all of my papers and finally settled on the Viken design from 49 and Market. I really do apologize for using products that aren’t on the Simon website any longer. I do tend to hoard my patterned papers for extended periods of time and then they go out of stock or become discontinued. However, there are many companies that carry papers that would work for this design, if you choose to recreate it. If you’re anything like me, I’m sure you probably have some stashed away somewhere just looking for a project to call home!

Moving on .. I die cut the daisy several times from several papers and glued them all together, including a black stem and center. My background paper is also from this collection that I stamped the Crackle Background onto using VersaFine Clair Morning Mist ink, black splattered and then trimmed down using the Postage Stamp Edge Frames die.

The new Giggle Happy Birthday sentiment was cut once from black glossy cardstock and twice from regular black and glued together for a stacked sentiment. The panel was adhered to the card base using foam tape, while the flower and sentiment were adhered using liquid glue to finish up.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! Thanks for stopping by, and have yourself a wonderful 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!

Spellbinders Birthday Field Notes

Hello Friends and welcome back! Today’s project is featuring the Field Notes Wildflowers along with the Molded Frame 3D Embossing Folder from the Spellbinders April releases. I got a little behind from traveling and then being sick for a week, so I’m playing a little bit of catch up! Let’s go ahead and go through the details for this one.

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

I began this project by creating the background first using the Molded Frame Embossing Folder, trimming it down slightly and then adding some splatter. The next step was to cut the flowers pieces using Neenah 110lb cardstock and Fern cardstock.

I placed tiny pieces of foam tape on one of the floral pieces and then adhered the other piece atop that for a more dimensional look. This was then adhered to the stem and black gems were added to the centers of the flowers.

The black strip is part of the wildflower set, but it was smaller than I wanted, so I just cut two of them and trimmed off one end of both. The sentiment was created using the Ideal Moments Sentiments BetterPress Plate along with black BetterPress ink.

The panel was adhered to the card base, the floral was glued in place along with the black strip and the sentiment was adhered with foam strips to finish up.

A simple project for today, but I love the classic look of white flowers on a white background. I hope you enjoyed it! Thanks again for stopping by, and I hope you have an awesome day!

Spellbinders Birthday Cosmos

Hello Crafty Friends and welcome back! Today’s project is featuring the new Cosmos, as well as the Journal Grid in a clean and simple design. These products are from the May releases, and you should definitely check them out! Let’s go right into the details!

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

I began this project by cutting the Cosmos from Neenah 110lb cardstock and the pieces from pink and yellow cardstocks. I did some light ink blending on the petals using Peony ink, drew some veins with a pink colored pencil and assembled the flower with liquid glue. I wanted this flower on a stem so I used the Layered Wildflowers set and cut that from Green Apple cardstock with some ink blending with Pearfection ink.

The Journal Grid BetterPress Plate was inked using Misty Coast ink, trimmed down and gold splattered for some additional interest. I chose the light grey ink because I wanted a subtle background for this card.

I gold foiled the You Are Everything Plate onto Neenah 110lb and trimmed it out with the coordinating die, along with two additional cuts because I love that stacked sentiment look. The background was adhered to the card base and the leaves and flower were glued in place while the sentiment were adhered using foam strips.

That finishes up this project! I hope you enjoyed it! Don’t forget to check out all of the May releases over on the Spellbinders website! Thanks again for joining me, and have a fabulous day!

Spellbinders Floral Birthday Grid

Hello Friends, and welcome back! The May Spellbinders releases are live today, and I’m back with a project featuring the new Journal Grid along with the Anemone and Cosmos florals. Let’s run through the details for this one!

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

I began this project by die cutting the Anemone and Cosmos flowers from Neenah 110lb, pink, yellow and black cardstocks. I did some light ink blending on the flowers using Bubblegum ink. Once the ink blending was complete, I assembled the flowers using liquid glue and set those aside while I figured out the rest of the card.

I went ahead and gold foiled the Journal Grid onto a panel of Neenah 110lb and added some gold splatter for additional interest. While I was foiling, I gold foiled the Summer Solstice Garden Sentiments onto black cardstock and trimmed that out with the coordinating die, along with two additional cuts for a stacked look.

I adhered the grid to my card base using foam tape, and started playing around with placement. I decided that I need some other florals and leaves and cut those using Vivid Blooms and Sealed Wildflowers from pink, yellow and green cardstock. I did do some ink blending on one of the smaller flowers using Carnation ink and some Pearfection ink on the leaves.

I secured the leaves in place on the panel using liquid glue, followed by the smaller flowers and then the larger flowers. The sentiment was glued in place, and I added some Gold Metallic Pearls to finish up.

That does it for this project! Everyone knows that I love florals, so I really enjoyed this project! I think that I’m going to get a lot of use out of this Grid Journal Press Plate, as you can use it with inks and foils, which I love! Don’t forget to head over to the Spellbinders website to check out all of the new releases! Thanks again for joining me, 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 Hip Hip Hooray

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back! The latest release from Simon Says Stamp, Favorite Things, is live and I’m back today with a project featuring the new Hip Hip Hooray set. Let’s go ahead and jump 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 some of the hippos using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat setting that with Ranger Clear Embossing Powder. I then used Copic Markers C00, C1, C2, C3 and RV10 to add color to the hippos. I then fussy cut the images and went to work on the rest of the card.

The Postage Collage Cover was cut twice from Neenah 110lb cardstock and adhered together for a little bit of a stacked look. That was then adhered to my card base using liquid glue, and I went ahead and die cut the flowers and leaves from the Hanging Leaf Ring set from Sage and Neenah cardstock. I did do some light ink blending on these pieces using Carnation and Sage inks as well.

Once the ink blending was complete, I assembled the flowers and added Bubblegum Dazzling Gems to the centers. The sentiment, which is from the Hip Hip Hooray set, was stamped with VersaMark ink and heat set using SSS Detail White Embossing Powder. This was then cut into a strip with foam strips added to the back of it. The hippos were adhered using foam tape while the flowers and leaves were adhered with a combination of glue and foam squares. The sentiment was secured in place to finish up.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it! I don’t normally do cutesy cards, because I don’t feel that I’m very good at those types of cards, but this card makes me smile, so I’m counting that as a win! Don’t forget to check out the entire Favorite Things release over on Simon’s website! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have an amazing day!

Simon Says Stamp Birthday Books

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back to my blog! I’m back today with a project featuring the new One for the Books set from Simon’s latest release, Favorite Things. 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 book using Bubblegum, Gravel and Sage inks. This is a layering stamp set, so I moved onto the black areas and used VersaFine Onyx Black ink for that and heat set it using Ranger Clear Embossing Powder. For the “pages” of the books, I used Misty Coast ink from PinkFresh Studio.

Once the stamping of the book was complete, I adhered them to fun foam and trimmed them down to size. I also added a small pink heart and Bubblegum Dazzling Gems to the top book. The background was created using the Friendship Text Background stamp with that same Misty Coast ink. That was then trimmed down using the Postage Stamp Edge Frames. Before adhering to the card base, I added some black splatter and then adhered the books atop that. Because the books had already been adhered to fun foam, there was no need for additional foam tape.

That finishes up this project! I hope you enjoyed it! Head on over to Simon’s website to check out the entire Favorite Things release and let me know your favorites. Thanks for joining me, and I hope you have a fabulous day!

Spellbinders Birthday Mountain Daisy

Hello Crafty Friends and welcome back! I’m back today with a project featuring the new Lavender Mountain Daisy from Spellbinders and Susan Tierney Cockburn! You guys know that I love florals, so I was thrilled to be able to work with some of Susan’s latest floral die cuts! 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.

I began this project by die cutting a few of the daisies and centers from Purple Mist and Saffron cardstock. I did some ink blending on the flowers using PFS Hydrangea ink, and I used Copic marker YR04 on the centers. I used the Sizzix Shaping Kit to shape the center pieces and then I went ahead and assembled the flowers.

Now as you all know, I always need greenery so I die cut a few leaves from the Vivid Blooms set from Green Apple cardstock and did some ink blending on those as well using Artichoke ink. For my background, I used the Fresh Picked Labels and Tag to create a focal point. The center portion that was cut out to create the frame was then run through the machine using the Argyle Plaid 3D Embossing Folder to add a bit of texture.

The sentiment, which is from the Simply Perfect Mix & Match Sentiments, was die cut once from gold cardstock and twice from Neenah 110lb cardstock for a stacked sentiment. I was unable to locate this set on the Spellbinders website, so I’m assuming that it must have been discontinued. But, if you’re wanting to recreate this project, just use what’s in your stash! Before assembling, I did splatter both the panel and the card base with gold acrylic ink. The textured panel was adhered to the card base using liquid glue, as well as the flowers, leaves and sentiment. To finish up, I added a few Gold Metallic Pearls.

That does it for this card! I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! Don’t forget to check out all of the February releases from Spellbinders! Thanks again for joining me, and have a wonderful day!
