Preview! Limited Edition First Night Card Kit

September 28, 2022

Hi there! Today I am sharing a preview of the upcoming Limited Edition First Night Card Kit by Simon Says Stamp. This kit will ship not ship until mid-late October, but is available for pre-order today!

SSS-First Night, Holy Stars stencil

For my card I blended a soft night sky using distress inks in: Chipped Sapphire, Prize Ribbon, Mermaid Lagoon and Cracked Pistachio. I then took the Holy Stars Stencil that comes in the kit and blended over the night sky using the same colors.

I stamped the cityscape image from the First Night stamp set that is included in the kit using Earl ink and then stamped the nativity images and sentiment with Versafine Onyx Black ink. I finished it off with a few Spring Showers sequins.

I started by stamping the scene with Intense Black ink onto Hammermill. I blended night sky using Tumbled Glass, Prize Ribbon and Chipped Sapphire. For the rest I colored with Copics. I used white pigment ink with the stencil to add a soft snowfall and then embossed the sentiment in white onto black cardstock.

Limited Edition Halloween 2022 Kit

September 15, 2022

Hi there! Simon Says Stamp just released a super fun, Limited Edition Halloween Card Kit called Home Sweet Haunted Home. I have a couple of projects to share featuring products from this kit. For my first card I used the Halloween Candy Stencil Set. For the sentiment I used the Home Sweet Haunted Home Stamp Set. I die cut the circle sentiment using a circle die and popped it up onto a kraft circle tag that comes in the kit.

This next card features the delicious looking Tim Holtz Idea-ology Confections Candy Corn included in the kit. I created a simple shaker card with Royal Purple cardstock and added a frame die cut out of Black Glitter cardstock. I used more circle dies to create the shaker & frame. For the sentiment I used the Home Sweet Haunted Home Stamp Set.
