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.

November 9, 2021

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a couple of project from the festive new Handmade Holiday Release by Simon Says Stamp. You can check out the fun, new products HERE!

SSS-First Night, Winter Birds

For this first card I used the First Night die on Soft Navy Cardstock. Behind the window opening I blended a few of the gorgeous new Pawsitively Saturated Ink colors. I used the Trio 6 & Trio 9 ink colors for a pinky-orange blended sky. For the sentiment I used the Winter Birds stamp set.

This next card features the new Sprinkle Snowglobe Embossing Folder with Cornflower cardstock. I blended some darker blues along the bottom of the panel using the new Trio 7 inks.

SSS-Sprinkle Snowglobe Embossing Folder, CZ Holiday Silhouettes

For the images & sentiment I used the CZ Holiday Silhouettes stamp & die set along with the green inks from Trio 8. I used a white gel pen to add a few white dots to the embossed snowglobe and embossed the sentiment in white onto black.
