Be Creative

February 15, 2023

Hi there! The fun, new Be Creative release by Simon Says Stamp is live and I have a couple of projects to share using several of these new products.

My first card uses the CZ Angularium background cling. I inked it with a combination of Carnation, Blush & Peachy ink. For the sentiment I used the new CZ Big Old Birthday stamp set. I added a small sentiment strip from the new You Did sentiment strips.

My next card features the Brushstrokes stencil. I tested out the Stamp and Stencil Mat and LOVE IT!

SSS-Brushstrokes Stencil, CZ Big Old Birthday

For the sentiment I used the CZ Big Old Birthday again and embellished with some bubbles.

I have a walk-through reveal over on the Simon Says Stamp blog showing a closer look at all of the fun, new products in the Be Creative Release. Thanks so much for stopping by!

New! Tim Holtz Distress Color

January 28, 2023

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a project featuring the gorgeous new Tim Holtz distress color, Lost Shadow.

SSS-Fancy Love, CZ Wild Love, Animal Print Stencil

I blended the new Lost Shadow distress ink with one of the Animal Print stencils to make a subtle pattern background. I created a shaker with a sweet elephant from the CZ Wild Love stamp set. For the sentiment I used the Fancy Love die with some of that delicious Color Blend cardstock.

Here’s a video to show you how I created this card.

Kisses Release

January 18, 2023

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a couple of projects from the fun, new Kisses release by Simon Says Stamp.

SSS-Slider Plate, Nested Round Hearts, CZ Love Ya

My first card features the Nested Round Hearts dies with the CZ Love Ya word die. This card is actually a slider card and the heart can slide up and down. I share more about this Slider Plate die and show this card in action in the Kisses reveal video.

My next card is a fun one! It features the Slay die. My daughter and her friends always say this phrase so it gave us all a good chuckle. I will now have to make several cards using this die to give to those girls. They will be squealing from the high heavens when they see this.

For the background I used the Candy Hearts Stencil Set with several Pawsitively Saturated inks(linked below).

Make sure and check out the Simon Says Stamp blog to see the entire release as well as the reveal video. Thanks so much for stopping by, and remember to Slay Everyday😊
