Simon Says Stamp Pepita Background

Hello Friends, and thanks so much for stopping by to check out today’s project featuring the new Pepita Background from Simon’s latest release, Rain or Shine. 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 background onto a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock using Dew, Mist and Raindrop inks. I started with the lightest color at the top of my panel and used a small blending brush to soften the edges of the ink on the stamp, so as not to have any harsh edges. I did have to repeat this step multiple times to get a good image. I proceeded with the the other colors doing the same thing.

Once I was satisfied with the stamped image, I made marks on the panel so I knew where to trim it down. I then used my scissors to trim along the edges to give it a more interesting appeal. I really liked that look and did another card the same way. I die cut the Lush Leaves from Matte Silver cardstock as well as an aqua mirrored cardstock that I purchased from my local craft store.

While I was cutting, I went ahead and cut the Scripty Hugs once from the same mirror cardstock and twice from Neenah, as well as cutting the shadow portion twice. I adhered all of those pieces together and started the assembly process. The background was adhered using foam tape while the leaves were secured with liquid glue. I added the sentiment with foam strips and added Surf Dazzling Gems to finish up this project.

I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! I think the aqua colors pair so nicely with the silver. Don’t forget to check out the entire Rain or Shine release! Thanks again for joining me and 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 Nifty Happy to Know You

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back! I’m so glad that you stopped by to check out today’s project featuring the new Nifty Star Plate from the Rain or Shine release. Let’s go ahead and run through the details, shall we?

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

I began this project by die cutting the Nifty Star Plate once from Neenah 110lb cardstock and once from black cardstock. I then poked out all of the pieces from both panels and put the black panel onto a Craft Tacky Mat and put the white pieces into place. Once those were in place, I did some light ink blending using Bubblegum, Sunbeam and Seafoam inks.

To get proper placement onto my card base, I put some removable tape on the back of the black panel and began the inlay process adding the black pieces first and securing with liquid glue and then adding the ink blended pieces atop that. Once all of the pieces were in place, I carefully removed the black panel that I was using as my guide.

The sentiment, which is from the Extra Talkative set, was stamped onto black cardstock using VersaMark ink and heat set using Detail White Embossing Powder. That was then trimmed out using the coordinating die along with two additional cuts. Those were adhered together and added to the card using foam strips. To finish up, I added black crystals to the centers of each piece.

That finishes up this project! I hope you enjoyed it! Inlay work is time consuming, but I think it yields such a beautiful project regardless of what it is. Thanks again for joining me today, and don’t forget to check out the entire Rain or Shine release over on Simon’s website. I hope you have a wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp Rain or Shine Blog Hop – Day 1

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back! Today I’m super excited to be participating in the SSS Blog Hop to celebrate their latest release, Rain or Shine! Hop along with us and comment on each post for your chance to win a $25 gift certificate to the Simon store! Simon will be giving away a gift certificate to one lucky commenter from each stop along the way! I’ll list the participants of the Hop at the bottom of my post for your convenience. And, stay tuned for the Blog Hop Day 2 tomorrow for more inspiration and chances to win! My project for today is featuring the new Snowbell Bouquet in a shadow frame. I really enjoy creating shadow frames as a little decorative element for your home or your craft room or anywhere, really. 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 die cutting the Snowbells LOTS of times from Neenah 110lb cardstock and Green Apple cardstock. Once everything was cut, I did some light ink blending on the flowers using Gravel ink and on the stems and leaves using Fairway and Field ink.

I assembled the flowers and adhered them to the stems and cut a background panel that would fit inside the frame from dark green cardstock. I wanted a little more interest, so I splattered it with yellow spray. I chose that one because I knew that it would show up on dark cardstock.

The sentiment was created using the Just Breathe set. I stamped it onto black cardstock using VersaMark ink and heat set it using Detail White Embossing Powder. I trimmed it out with the coordinating die four times to achieve that stacked look.

When the panel dried, I arranged the flowers and sentiment in a way that I was satisfied with and then began adhering them with liquid glue. The sentiment was added with foam tape for added dimension. Once the flowers and sentiment were in their places, I went back and added the leaves here and there to fill in.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! Have you tried making a shadow frame? I always end up making mine to send to Simon headquarters, and I really need to make one for myself one of these days!

Simon Says Stamp Floral Harlequin Thank You

Hello Friends, and thanks so much for stopping by! I’m back today with a project featuring the new Pepita Background from Simon’s latest release, Rain or Shine. This project is also featuring the new Thank You Basics set, which is a staple to have in your stash! 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 stamping the Pepita Background onto a black panel using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat setting it using Ranger Clear Embossing Powder. I repeated that process for a second time to get a smoother embossed finish. I think the black on black with the glossy pattern is just amazing! I wanted this panel to be just smaller than my card base, so I made some marks and began cutting around the design. I absolutely love the edging of the panel!

I went ahead and splattered my card base with black ink and set that aside to dry while I worked on the other elements. I die cut the Autumn Sunflower twice from Neenah 110lb cardstock, which gave me four pieces. I also die cut the Privet Branch twice from Neenah, and cut the Winsome branch a couple of times from black cardstock.

I did some ink blending on the flower using Bubblegum and Carnation inks. I was a bit more heavy handed on the bottom layer and lighter on the top layers. The leaves were ink blended using Celery, Pearfection and Seafoam inks. I love adding Seafoam to green ink blending as I think it adds a nice little pop of color. I assembled the flower and decided to go back and cut the center from black cardstock to bring some cohesiveness.

I stamped the sentiment, which is from the new Thank You Basics set, using VersaMark ink and heat set that using Detail White Embossing Powder. I trimmed it down so that it would fit nicely in the center of my flower. The background panel was adhered to the card base using foam tape, and I began adhering the green leaves first with liquid glue. Next, I adhered the black leaves, the flower and the sentiment. To finish up, I added a few clear drops.

This card has so much dimension, and I love it! I think it would have been pretty with an aqua colored flower as well, or any color of flower! I hope you enjoyed this project, as I sure did! 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 an absolutely 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 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!

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

I began this project by running a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock through the machine with the folder, and then doing some ink blending using Seafoam, Surf and Ocean inks.

The Birthday Wishes sentiment was cut once from Matte Silver Cardstock and twice from Neenah, the shadow portion was cut twice and all of those pieces were adhered together for that stacked sentiment look.

The embossed panel was added to the card base using foam tape, and the sentiment was glued directly to the panel. I added Surf Dazzling Gems to finish up.

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!

Simon Says Stamp Pastel Floral Hello

Hello Crafty Friends and welcome back! I’m back today with a project featuring the new Pretty Bows from Simon’s latest release, Favorite Things. Let’s run through 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 doing a bunch of die cutting! I used the Etched Crocus Stems to cut the flowers, the Budding Branches to cut the leaves, and the Double Plaid Cover for the background. All of that was cut from Neenah 110lb cardstock, while the Script Hello sentiment and one of the Pretty Bows were cut from gold cardstock. Now we all know that I like stacked sentiments, so that was cut an additional two times from Neenah and the bow was cut one additional time and all of those were adhered together using liquid glue.

Some light ink blending was added to the flowers and leaves using Bubblegum and Seafoam inks. Once done with the flowers, I assembled those and began the assembly of the card. The card base was splattered with gold before adding the Double Plaid Cover.

The leaves were secured with glue first, followed by the flowers. The bow and sentiment were added next, along with some Gold Metallic Pearls to bring all of the gold together.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! Don’t forget to stop over at Simon’s website to check out the entire Favorite Things release! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a wonderful 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!

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!
