January 29, 2021

Hi there! Today I’m joining Tonic Studios for their January Blog hop and featuring the new Backgrounds & Borders stamp & die bundle.

Tonic Studios-Backgrounds & Borders Bundle

For this card I stamped the hexagons using Mountain Mist ink and die cut the tiny hexagons using Concord & 9th cardstock along with Pixie Dust cardstock.

Tonic Studios-Backgrounds & Borders Bundle

For this next card I stamped one of the border images repeatedly using Concord & 9th inks.

Using the MISTI allows you to easily move the cardstock and repeatedly stamp the border image to get consistent spacing each time. I added the die cut “you” from the die set.

Sending Hugs

January 28, 2021

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a colorful project using the Geometric Builder Squares & Circles dies.

SSS-Geometric Builder Squares & Circles

I created a project similar to this a year ago before I had the Geometric Builder dies, which made it so much easier and more precise. Here is the older card.

SSS-Nested Circle Dies, CZ Love You

My card above has so many imperfections because my measurements were far from perfect, but the Geometric Builder dies make it exact. I have more ideas than time with these dies, but whenever I do play with them, they make me so happy.

SSS-Geometric Builder Squares & Circles

For the sentiment I used the Reverse Sympathy Sentiment Strips with one of the Sentiment Label dies.

Jane's Doodles-Sweater Weather

Love You Beary Much

January 20, 2021

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a few little love notes using the February Card Kit by Simon Says Stamp called Love You Beary Much.

SSS-Love You Beary Much

Each of these notes measure 4.25″x 4.25″, which makes for a cute little valentine. For this first card I stamped the sweet bear from the Love You Beary Much stamp set and colored the image with Copies. I used the Tumbling Hearts Stencil with Iridescent Glitz Glitter Gel onto Speckled Egg cardstock.

SSS-Love You Beary Much

For the second card I stamped the bold heart greeting with Versafine Onyx Black ink and, I know you’re gonna think I’m crazy, but I glued the tiny little pink beads that come in the kit around the perimeter of the heart with glossy accents. It was tedious in the best way possible. I sat next to Emma while she pretended to do her Deutsch homework and I pretended to understand.

SSS-Love You Beary Much

For this last card I stamped the Love sentiment, also from Love You Beary Much. I masked off each letter using post-its and stamped the letters using Honeysuckle, Grapefruit, Buttercup & Sea Glass. I created a shaker card using one of the Nested Circle dies and Iridescent Heart Confetti.

SSS-Love You Beary Much
