Hi there! Today I’m sharing this colorful, autumn themed projects over on the My Favorite Things YouTube channel featuring the Slimline Starter Die-namics set along with the Autumn Blessings set.
I used some delicious solid colored cardstock by My Favorite Things on my project.
I thought it would be nice to show the colors together with the names on them so you can see how good they look together.
The new My Favorite Things August release is now available HERE. You can check out my video tutorial HERE. Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hi there! Today I’m excited to join Simon Says Stamp for a Mini Hop showcasing the August 2020 Picnic Parade card kit. I’ve created three cards using the Hello Sunshine stamp set included in the card kit.
For this first card I simply stamped the sun ray image with Aqua Sky ink onto a panel of white cardstock and then stamped it again going the opposite direction with Oceanside ink.
For the sentiment I used the Thinking of You Sentiment Strips.
For this next card I used the solid stripe to create a diagonal striped background. I used the ruler guides on the MISTI to shift the panel 3/4″ each time to get consistent spacing.
For the sentiment I used the CZ Miss You word die.
For this last card I used the solid circle image in the Hello Sunshine stamp set and stamped it repeatedly, again using the MISTI rulers to get consistent spacing each time.
The Concord & 9th ink colors look amazing with the overlapping design. I used another Thinking of You sentiment strip for the sentiment on this card.
Here is a video to show you how I created these simple cards.

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a couple of projects using some of the fun, new goodies from the latest Let’s Connect release by Simon Says Stamp.
This first card features the Rainbow Card die set. This die set is designed to create a rainbow shaped card, but I used it here on a slimline sized card. For the sentiment I used the CZ Let’s Connect Word die.
This next card features the Large Outline Happy Die. Behind the negative spaces I adhered strips of Enchanted & Unicorn papers.
I added a coordinating sentiment from the Sentiment Strips Thinking of You.
There’s a fun reveal video of the Let’s Connect release over on the Simon Says Stamp blog. You can also shop the new release HERE! Thanks so much for stopping by!

In case you missed it, Nina introduced the beginner friendly Stitched Borders here, and the Pinking Shapes and Holiday Shapes for more experienced users. You can also find some Coordinating Products here!
I had a ball stitching away using some of these new dies. I’ve created three projects to share.
My first card uses the Stitchable Pinking Rectangle Die. I created my own sort of pattern creating colorful little repeating squares. I love how this die has such a clean, decorative edge.
For the embroidery floss I used what was in my stash. I’ve recently picked up some gorgeous neon colors at my local dollar store. For the sentiment I used the CZ Love You die with gold glittered cardstock & vellum.
This next card features the Stitchable Pinking Heart Die.
I stitched horizontal rows of colored floss creating a rainbow pattern. For the sentiment I used the Fresh Rainbow Sentiments stamp set and trimmed out the word “hugs” to take up less space on the stitched heart.
This last card uses the small stitchable tags from the Stitchable Squares Die set. I framed the tiny tags using the largest Blanket Stitch Layers Die with white cardstock and popped it up over some pink Half-Half Lines-Unicorn pattern paper.
I embossed another sentiment from the Fresh Rainbow Sentiments stamp set and trimmed out the word “hugs”.

Hi there! I’m back with my final Concord & 9th Feature Friday project. This week’s challenge was to use the spectrum featuring the new cardstock or ink colors.
I die cut several mini floral blooms using the smallest bloom in the Fresh Cut Florals Dies Edition 3 set.
For the sentiment I used the Thank You for Being stamp set. I framed the sentiment by die cutting an Ivory panel with a Nesting Oval die.
I adhered a clear drop into the center of each bloom. Make sure and check out the Concord & 9th blog & Instagram to see more inspiration. Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hi there! Today I’m sharing a mod rainbow card using the Jumbo Stripes stamp set.
My inspiration came from this amazing wall mural painted by Stefanie Bales.
I used the Jumbo Stripes stamp set and was able to bend the thick stripe stamp using the MISTI to create the rainbow arches. I used Simon Says Stamp inks in: Sunshine, Doll Pink, Deep Purple, Soft Navy & Audrey Blue.
For the sentiment I used the Greetings Mix 1 stamp set with Versafine Onyx Black ink.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
