CZ Yay You

August 31, 2024

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a project using the CZ Yay You set by Simon Says Stamp.

I cut strips of solid colored cardstock and then temporarily held them together with post-it tape while running the strips through with the coordinating die for the badabing sentiment. I adhered the strips onto the cardbase and then lined the sentiment up in the die cut area and stamped it with versafine onyx black ink. I embossed a sub-sentiment in white onto black cardstock.

Can you believe tomorrow is September already? It’s also the start of the 15th STAMPtember® for Simon Says Stamp. Are you ready for a month long celebration? Looking forward to sharing all of the fun collaborations. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Are You Kitten Me?

August 28, 2024

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a project featuring the Halloween Friends set by Simon Says Stamp. I used only the kitten image repeatedly to create a non-halloween card.

I stamped the kitten images with Intense Black ink and colored them with copics. For the background I used a sheet from one of the Pastel Color Blends Assortment Pack. I embossed the sentiment in white onto black cardstock from the Punny Animals set and popped the images and sentiment up using 3D foam squares.

Our little cat, Frankie, looks exactly like the bottom, middle cat. He is very thin and always arched up, stretching and giving you this blank stare. Not sure what he’s trying to say. My son brought him home from Germany so maybe that’s where the communication gap is? The moving truck comes today to load everything in our house, and tomorrow we leave very early to start a new chapter in Minnesota. Our family is excited, a little sentimental and very exhausted all at the same time. We have been purging and purging and packing and purging. The bags just keep coming and coming. It never stops.

I am very excited to have my own craft room in this new house. I will, hopefully, try and document the process. Looking forward to sharing more with you from Minnesota. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Graceful Flowers

August 26, 2024

Hi there! Today I’m sharing this project over on the Simon Says Stamp blog featuring the Graceful Flowers set. I embossed a couple of blooms repeatedly in clear and them blended several Pawsitively Saturated inks for the dreamy color.

Football Season

August 23, 2024

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a fun card featuring the Football Season set by Simon Says Stamp.

First I stamped the football repeatedly with Latte ink onto kraft cardstock. Then I created the jersey stamping poppy ink onto poppy cardstock. Then I stamped the cuffs on the sleeves separately onto white with Sunbeam ink and trimmed them out to put onto the red jersey. I stamped the numbers as well with Sunbeam ink onto white and used the coordinating dies to cut them out. I stripped it up on the background for more color and embossed the sentiment in white.

Are you a football fan? I never was until last year. Started watching the Chiefs games, mainly to see the unfolding love story between Travis Kelce & Taylor Swift. I’m not a Swifty, but I am here for a love story. Time will tell if it will last.

Here’s to love, football season and cool cards! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Layering Apple

July 31, 2024

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a colorful, apple project featuring the Layering Apple Die Set.

I used several shade of solid colored cardstock for each apple and then blended each one with a darker shade for more dimension. For the sentiment I used the Sunshine and Smiles Stamp Set.

I popped up the panel onto a Fog cardbase and added Starshine embellishment for a little bling. This could be a fun card for a teacher with the apples, but I think it works great for anyone anytime! Thanks so much for stopping by!
