Simon Says Stamp I Love You Dual Diamonds

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back to my blog! I’m back today with a card featuring the new Dual Diamonds from Simon’s latest release, Happy Camper. This card is also featuring the new ilysm stamp and die set, 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.

I began this project by ink blending a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock using Bubblegum, Sunbeam, Seafoam and Heather inks. I then ran the panel and die through the machine, being careful to keep the pieces in place. I went ahead and placed some Press n Seal to the front of the panel and added pieces of foam tape to the back of the diamonds.

I pulled the negative frame portion from the Press n Seal and placed that, along with my card base into the corner of the Misti. Once I removed the backing from the foam tape, I lined up the diamonds with the guide piece in the Misti. I could then carefully remove the negative frame piece, and all of my diamonds are perfectly lined up!

I die cut the ilysm sentiment once from black glossy cardstock and twice from black cardstock, while cutting the shadow portion twice from Neenah. All of those were adhered together and glued directly to the card. The sub sentiment was stamped using VersaMark ink, heat set with Detail White Embossing Powder, trimmed down and adhered with foam tape to finish up.

That does it for this project. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! I do love a great ink blended panel! Don’t forget to check out the entire Happy Camper release over on Simon’s website. Thanks again for joining me, and have a wonderful day!

Spellbinders Hey Pupkin

Hello Crafty Friends, and thanks for joining me! I’m back today with a cutie card featuring the new Pupkin from the Spellbinders August releases. Let’s jump 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 die cutting all of the pieces from various cardstock scraps. Once all of the cutting was done, I began assembling the pup. I should have done some light ink blending, but to be honest, I forgot and it was too late at the point that I remembered. Have you ever done that? I was too lazy to cut all of the pieces again.

The background panel was created using the Deckled Rectangles and the Tim Holtz Paper Distresser tool thingy. Once I was satisfied with the distressing of the edges, I took it over to my splat box and added some black splatter. The panel was adhered to the card base and the pup was adhered atop that with foam tape.

Now for the interesting part .. I don’t make Halloween cards, so I didn’t have a sentiment to use on this project. I also didn’t request one when the Pupkin was being sent to me. A little snafu on my part! With all of that being said, I had to whip out the label maker for the sentiment.

A pretty simple card, but I actually like how it turned out, even though cutesy cards are not in my wheelhouse. Don’t forget to swing by the Spellbinders site to check out all of the new August releases! Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a fabulous day!

Simon Says Stamp Blossom Bursts

Hello Friends, and welcome back! Thanks for stopping by to check out today’s project featuring the new Blossom Bursts Embossing Folder from Simon’s latest release, Happy Camper. 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 embossing the folder onto a panel of watercolor paper. To add color to the flowers, I used Bubblegum, Carnation, Cantaloupe, Honey, Sunbeam, Surf, Mocha and Ocean ink. I began with one color and smooshed some ink onto my glass mat and painted it on using a detail water brush.

Once done with the painting, I stamped the sentiment using VersaMark ink onto black cardstock and heat setting it with Detail White Embossing Powder. I trimmed it out using the coordinating die, along with two extra cuts, and adhered all of those pieces together.

The trimmed panel was adhered to the card base using foam tape, while the sentiment was adhered using foam strips. I also added a few Dazzling Gems to finish up.

That does it for this one. I hope you enjoyed it! This was just an easy way to stretch your ink pads and use them for more than just stamping or ink blending. Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Spellbinders Merry Floral

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back! Today’s project is featuring several new products from the Spellbinders August releases. It’s hard for me to think about holiday cards in August, but I really enjoyed making this card, especially with all of the glitter and splatter. Let’s run through the details, shall we?

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 Christmas Foliage from Crimson, Poppy, Fern, Forest and gold cardstock. I did some ink blending on the flowers using Brick ink, and used Lush Forest ink on the greenery. Once I was done with the ink blending, I assembled the flowers, splattered white acrylic ink on all of the pieces and then added sparkly glitter using some glue that dries clear. I thought all of the pieces came out really pretty with the “icy” look.

I die cut the Bow & Bell Scallop Frame from Forest cardstock and white splattered that as well. I wondered if I had too much splatter, but then just decided to go with it! I also cut the Merry sentiment from Crimson three times and adhered all of those together for a stacked sentiment.

I secured the panel to the card base and then began adhering the leaves first, followed by the flowers. The sentiment was the last addition to finish up this project.

That does it for this project. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! Don’t forget to head over to the Spellbinders website to check out all of the August releases! Thanks again for stopping by, and have a wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp Nesting Bird

Hello Friends, and thanks for joining me! I’m back today with a project featuring the new Fun Birdie from Simon’s latest release, Happy Camper. Let’s get right 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 pieces from Neenah 110lb cardstock and did some ink blending using Surf, Ocean, Mist, Heather and Black inks. Once done with the ink blending, I assembled the bird using liquid glue, adding a black gem for the eye.

Next, I cut the Rustic Nest from dark brown and Desert Storm cardstock, adhering the pieces together, tucking in the twigs on the side. The background panel was created by cutting it with a deckle edge die, smooshing some Seafoam ink onto my glass mat and using a paper towel inside a ziplock bag to tap the color onto the panel. This is a technique that Cathy Zielske uses, and it works really well!

I decided on the nest placement and stamped the sentiment directly on the panel using VersaFine Onyx Ink and heat set that using clear embossing powder. The nest was glued to the panel and the bird was glued inside the nest. The panel was adhered to the card base using foam tape to finish up.

That does it for this one! Head on over to Simon’s website to check out the entire Happy Camper release. Thanks again for joining me, and don’t forget to stay awesome, friend!

Simon Says Stamp Delicate Blossoms

Hello Friend, and thanks for joining me! Today’s project is featuring the new Delicate Blossoms stamp from Simon’s latest release, Happy Camper. There’s a fun Instagram Hop going on over there, so be sure to check that out, as Simon is giving away a $25 gift card at every stop along the hop. 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 image onto a panel of watercolor paper using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat setting it using clear embossing powder. I then went to work using pan watercolors to color the image. I’m not even going to lie, this process too me almost an entire day! I’m very slow and I wanted to make sure that I had some depth to the flowers and leaves.

Once I was satisfied, I used the new More A7 Rectangles set to trim it down. I added some foam tape to the back of the panel and adhered it to a black panel for some contrast. I cut my card base, black splattered it and set it aside while I worked on the sentiment. I cut the hello once from silver cardstock and twice from black cardstock, while cutting the shadow portion twice as well. All of those pieces were adhered together before moving on.

I adhered the panel to the card base, glued my sentiment in place and added some silver embellishments to finish up. I chose the space near the bottom right, because I did not want to cover up any of the flowers that I had spent hours coloring!

That does it for this project. I hope you like it! I love the finished product of a watercolor piece, I just wish that it didn’t take me so long to complete! Don’t forget to check out the entire Happy Camper release! Thanks again for joining me, and have a wonderful day!

Simon Says Stamp You Grow, Girl!

Hello Friends and thanks for stopping by! I’m so glad that you joined me today for a project featuring the new Rooting For You set from Simon’s latest release, Happy Camper. It’s a quick one, so let’s run through the deets!

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

I began this project by stamping one of the critters from the set onto Neenah 110lb cardstock using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat setting it with clear embossing powder. I used Copics C1, C3, C4, C5, C7, R81, R83, YG17, E23, E27, E37, YR16 and YR18 to color in the image. Once finished, I fussy cut the image out, because I did not have the coordinating dies.

My background was created using the Postage Stamp Edge Frames and the smooshing technique used by Cathy Zielske. I smooshed Bubblegum ink onto my glass mat, spritzed it with water, and then used a ziplock bag with a paper towel inside of it to smoosh it onto the ink and then onto the paper for an organic look. Once the panel was dry, I stamped the sentiment using the same black ink.

The critter was adhered using foam tape and the panel was adhered to the card base using foam tape as well. I added pink glitter drop to the center of the flower to finish up.

That does it for this one. I hope you enjoyed it! I don’t always do clean and simple cards, but do enjoy them when I decide to do one. Thanks again for stopping by, and don’t forget to stay awesome!

Simon Says Stamp Birthday Splash

Hello Crafty Friends! Thanks for stopping by to check out today’s post featuring the new Undersea Friends set from Simon’s latest release, Friend Like You. This was an easy one, so let’s get into it.

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

I began this project by stamping one of the Undersea Friends onto some Neenah 110lb cardstock using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat setting it using clear embossing powder. I then colored the image with Copic Markers C00, C1, C2, C3, C4 and C5.

There is a die set that does with these stamps, but I did not have that, so I fussy cut my image. I then pulled some blue cardstock from my stash and cut those to fit my card base and tore the top edges to resemble waves. I stamped the sentiment and the bubbles directly onto the card and glued my blue layers in place, while the fish was adhered using foam strips.

That does it for this one. A pretty simple, yet cute card. I don’t normally prefer cutesy sets, but I think this card came out good. I hope you like it as well. Thanks so much for joining me, and I hope you have a fabulous day! Stay awesome, friend!

Simon Says Stamp Hummingbird Hugs

Hello Crafty Friends, and welcome back! I’m back today with a project featuring the new Brilliant Hummingbird from Simon’s latest release, Friend Like You. 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 die cutting the Brilliant Hummingbird, the Delicate Wildflowers and the Dainty Floral Vine all from Neenah 110lb cardstock. I went ahead and pulled Heather, Honey, Pearfection, Seafoam and Gravel inks to do all of the ink blending on these elements. Once I was done, I assembled the hummingbird and flowers and set those aside while I worked on the rest of the card.

I used the new A7 Rectangles and cut a panel of Neenah that got gold splattered. I also used two of the rectangles to cut a gold frame that would go around the outside of splattered panel that I just cut. I glued the gold frame in place and then began gluing the leaves in place.

The sentiment was stamped with VersaMark Ink and heat embossed using Detail White Embossing Powder. I trimmed that out three times for a stacked sentiment. The sentiment, flowers and hummingbird were adhered using foam strips for some added dimension and some gold pearls were added for some shine to finish up.

That does it for this project! I don’t often enjoy making A7 cards, but sometimes the extra space is nice. I hope you have an awesome day, and don’t forget to check out the entire Friend Like You release.

Simon Says Stamp Here For You

Hello Friends and thanks for stopping by! I’m back today with a project featuring the new Contemporary Lighthouse Embossing Folder from Simon’s latest release, Friend Like You. 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 by embossing the folder onto a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock. I then began coloring the image using Copic Markers C1, C3, C4, C6, C7, E23 and Y17. When I was satisfied with the coloring, I did some ink blending using Sunbeam, Sky and Night inks, being very careful not to mix the yellow and blue because I didn’t want to end up with green.

Before working on the sentiment, I splattered the panel with some white acrylic ink to mimic stars. The sentiment was stamped onto black cardstock using VersaMark Ink and heat set using Detail White Embossing Powder. That was trimmed out three times for a stacked sentiment.

I adhered the panel to the card base using foam tape and glued the sentiment in place to finish up.

That does it for this one. I’m not very good at coloring embossing folders, but I gave it a try anyway. Is it perfect? No. But, I’m happy with the outcome. Thanks again for stopping by. I do truly appreciate it, and I hope you have an awesome day!
