STAMPtember® is Here!

Hello and Happy STAMPtember®! The amazing new STAMPtember® release is now live HERE!

SSS-Paper Layering Circles, Reverse Merriest Christmas, The Neighborhood, Reverse All the Thanks

I created a couple of project featuring some of the fun, new dies. My first card uses The Neighborhood die set. I love these whimsical houses, each in different sizes & shapes. I die cut each of the houses out of solid colored cardstock.

SSS-The Neighborhood, Reverse All the Thanks

For the sentiment I used one of the new Reverse All the Thanks sentiment strips.

My second card features the Paper Layering Circles die set. I die cut each circle into a solid colored panel, in rainbow order, of course:) How amazing is these hypnotic design?

Teacher Thank Yous

August 31, 2021

Hi there! Today I have a sweet little teacher thank you card to share. We are in our second week of school here and I have never appreciated the teachers more than I do now. They go above and beyond to teach during these trying times and they do with a smile.

SSS-CZ Teacher Thanks Yous7

For my card I used the CZ Teacher Thank Yous set. I stamped the solid apple image repeatedly using Concord & 9th inks for a colorful pattern.

SSS-CZ Teacher Thanks Yous

I embossed the sentiments in white onto black and honeysuckle cardstock and popped the panel up onto an Ivory card base.

Volleyball Rainbow

August 29, 2021

Hi there! Today I have a rainbow volleyball themed card to share with you. My daughter, Bailey, recently made the volleyball team and I thought it was a perfect opportunity to make a card for her. She was nervous after coming back from two years in Germany, but she tried out and is doing so great!

SSS-Game Day Dies, CZ Silhouette Sentiments

To create the volleyballs I used the Game Day die set with several shades of solid colored cardstock. I trimmed each square to 2 1/4″ using a lighter shade and then adhered a darker shade of volleyball to each square using liquid glue.

SSS-Game Day Dies, CZ Silhouette Sentiments

There are so many other balls in the Game Day die set that you could create this same design for many different sports. For the sentiment I used the CZ Silhouette Sentiments set. I popped up the rainbow volleyball squares onto a Fog panel and then onto a white cardbase.

Geometric Builder Circles

August 28, 2021

Hi there! Today I’m sharing another project using the Geometric Builder Circles die set. I don’t think I will ever get sick of this die set. There’s just too many creative and fun patterns that you can make with it.

SSS-Geometric Builder Circles, Reverse Get Well Sentiment Strips

I used several little scraps of solid cardstock along with my Altenew Mini Blossom and created this fun little quilt-like pattern. I’m pretty sure there’s a name for this pattern, but I can’t seem to remember it.

SSS-Geometric Builder Circles, Reverse Get Well Sentiment Strips

For the sentiment I used one of the Reverse Get Well Sentiment Strips with the smallest Sentiment Label Dies. I popped the design onto a cream panel and then onto a white cardbase.

Sunflower Garden

August 24, 2021

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a project using the September Card Kit by Simon Says Stamp.

SSS-Sunflower Garden, Happy Birthday die5

To begin I embossed the large sunflower image from Sunflower Garden, which is included in the card kit. I embossed it in clear and blended several distress inks & Orange Crush ink for the color.

SSS-Sunflower Garden, Happy Birthday die

I fussy cut the image out and popped it up onto a white panel then flicked everything with Black Soot. For the sentiment I used the Happy Birthday die with silver metallic cardstock. I also embossed a coordinating sentiment from Slimline Florals.

Pencil Layering Stencil Set

August 6, 2021

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a project using the Pencil Layering Stencil Set, which is part of Erin Lee Creative’s newest release.

Erin Lee Creative-Pencil Layering Stencil, SSS-CZ Teacher Thank Yous

There are two stencils in the Pencil Layering Stencil Set that allow you to create a colorful row of perfectly sharpened pencils. I used distress inks to blend the color.

Erin Lee Creative-Pencil Layering Stencil, SSS-CZ Teacher Thank Youscopy

The colorful pencils were a perfect background for a teacher card so I used the CZ Teacher Thank Yous stamp set and added a few raindrops for embellishment.

Game Day Dad

July 31, 2021

Hi there! Today I have a fun little GIF that my daughter helped me create featuring the Dad die set, Game Day die set and the Most Valuable Player stamp set.

This is a fun way to customize a card if you have a supportive parent for a specific sport. The only thing missing here is a hockey puck, lol, but it’s not a round shape so these fit perfectly into the opening in the ‘a’.

Simon Says Stamp-Dad, Game Day, Most Valuable Player

I used solid colored cardstock scraps to piece these die cuts together onto a cream panel and then onto a white base. It’s very simple, but colorful and I think that’s just how dad might like it.)

Geometric Builders Hearts

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a project featuring the Geometric Builders Hearts die set.

SSS-Geometric Builders Hearts

I used several scraps of solid colored cardstock. I designed this die set several months ago and I’m giddy with how fun and easy they are to put together. These little dies are perfect to use with a mini die cutting machine, too. I use the Altenew Mini Blossom and love it.

For the sentiment I used the Thinking of You Sentiment Strips. I used one the Sentiment Label Dies to cut out the sentiment strips and pop it up on to the Ivory panel.
