Hi there! Today I’m sharing a couple of project featuring the latest September Card Kit by Simon Says Stamp.SSS-September Card Kit 2017This kit is so fun! I love the Doodlebug papers & stickers and the Best Ever stamp set coordinates perfectly with everything, too.SSS-September Card Kit 2017For this card I used some of the of the Heart stickers included in the kit and some of that I already had…you do need a lifetime supply of these:) Then I mounted them onto little circles that were punched out using my 3/4″ circle punch. I popped the circles up onto a piece of the Doodlebug Fairytale paper & embossed a sentiment from Best Ever.
SSS-September Card Kit 2017This next card is super simple and super sweet.
SSS-Best EverI stamped the images from the Best Ever set with Memento ink and colored them with Copics. Then I fussy cut the images out and popped them up with foam tape. I love how there are several sentiments in the Best Ever set that are arched and fit perfectly over the rainbow.SSS-Best EverYou can find out more about the September Card Kit over on the Simon Says Stamp blog.

Encouraging Words Release Blog Hop

Hi there! Today I’m excited to join Simon Says Stamp for their Encouraging Words Release Blog Hop. Simon hosted two blog hops for this release. You can head over to the Simon Says Stamp blog to see yesterday’s line up of amazing designers.SSS-Space Journey & You're a StarI’ve been wanting to create one of those “oh-so-cool” pop-up box cards for a while. I thought these new Space Journey dies would work perfect for creating a colorful galaxy on a pop-up card.
SSS-Space Journey & You're a StarFor the sentiment I used the You’re a Star die. How cool are these colorful planets? I used several colors of Simon Says Stamp cardstock along with coordinating ink colors to blend on each planet for some added interest. I also added some Wink of Stella to the stars for shimmer.SSS-Space Journey & You're a StarHere’s a video to show you how I made this pop-up box card.

Encouraging Words Release

Hi there! Today I have a few cards to share featuring a few of the gorgeous new product just release by Simon Says Stamp for their Encouraging Words release.SSS-Carolyn Stencil & Thanks You TeacherThis is such a fun release with a little bit of something for everyone! I fell in love with the gorgeous Carolyn Stencil and used it to create these cards along with the Thank You Teacher stamp set.
SSS-Carolyn Stencil & Thanks You TeacherUsing the Carolyn Stencil I blended distress inks onto watercolor cardstock. Then I embossed the sentiment in white onto vellum. I carefully added teeny tiny drops of glue behind the letters so that it wouldn’t show and then to finish it off I added some Nuvo drops. Using the largest Nested Circle dies I curved the top and bottom edges.
SSS-Carolyn Stencil & Thanks You TeacherUsing the same Carolyn Stencil I masked off four parts and ink blended with distress inks. Then I took another Nested Circle die to create a window for this fantastic sentiment.
SSS-Carolyn Stencil & Thanks You TeacherI was able to use the positive part from the leftover die cut above on this card below. I love it when I can get two cards for the price of one!
SSS-Carolyn Stencil & Thanks You TeacherAgain I using the Thank You Teacher set to emboss a sentiment on black and popped it up with foam tape with a few sparkling clear sequins to finish it off.

SSS-CZ Design Everett AlphasI spelled out “woot” with the Everett Alphas and embossed them in clear. Then I used distress inks and post it tape to blend a smokin’ rainbow background. The “#nailedit” is from the Yay set. For the card below, I embossed the “yes” in clear, blended more distress ink over top and then die cut it out with one of the Nested Circle dies.SSS-CZ Design YayI absolutely LOVE Cathy’s handwriting and her humor even more!

SSS-Magical Birthday

Hi there! Popping in to share a cutie patootie little project featuring the Magical Birthday stamp set by Simon Says Stamp. I’ll never ever ever outgrow unicorns & rainbows. In fact yesterday I persuaded my Emma to get some Lisa Frank folders for her school supplies. Her arm was easily twisted:)SSS-Magical BirthdayI stamped the images with Memento ink, colored them with Copics and fussy cut them out. For the background I blended distress inks onto Bristol paper followed by some flicks of water. I also smooshed the distress inks onto an acrylic block and with a wet brush I flicked some distress paint onto the panel.SSS-Magical BirthdayI added some wink of stella to the unicorn’s tail & mane followed by some delicious dots of Nuvo Drops.
SSS-Magical BirthdayWishing you a fantastical day! Thanks so much for stopping by!

SSS-Perfect Shapes dies

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a couple of project using the Perfect Shapes dies.SSS-Perfect Shapes diesIt’s no secret that I have an obsession with all things geometric, and these triangle designs make my life worth living:) Even though I must’ve cranked that Big Shot like a billion times, it was all worth it to see these colors come together. UntitledMy inspiration came from this↑ ad I saw on Instagram the other day. I knew I had to try something similar.
SSS-Perfect Shapes diesThere are several sizes of triangles in the Perfect Shapes dies set. I used the second to smallest triangle for this card. I popped the design up onto a navy panel with an embossed sentiment from Many Thanks.SSS-Perfect Shapes diesI couldn’t stop at one and had to stretch the idea using a larger triangle die. This was also an effort to tame my scrap bin, but in the end, I think I actually made the scrap bin worse.SSS-Perfect Shapes diesI popped up two triangle clusters with foam tape and added a sentiment from the Jumbo Stripes stamp set.SSS-Perfect Shapes diesThat’s all for today! Thanks so much for stopping by!

SSS-So Cool

Hi there! Today I have a fun popsicle shaker to share featuring the So Cool set by Simon Says Stamp.SSS-So CoolI used the coordinating So Cool dies to create little popsicle windows all over a panel of Neenah Solar White cardstock. Then, using the die cut panel as a guide, I stamped all the popsicles onto my card base and colored them with Copics.
SSS-So CoolI used the double sided foam strips to adhere all around each popsicle so that I could feel each shaker window with these delicious Queen & Company Diamonds. These rainbow shaker diamonds are absolutely gorgeous!
SSS-So CoolAfter I adhered my shaker together I added an embossed sentiment, also from the So Cool stamp set.SSS-So CoolIf only you could each rainbow popsicles with rainbow diamond shakers on them:) I would be in heaven! Thanks so much for stopping by!
