Simon Says Stamp October Card Kit: Tone on Tone Cards & GIVEAWAY!


Hi everyone!

I'm popping by to share some more cards featuring the Simon Says Stamp October Card Kit.


With these cards I wanted to highlight the fabulous colour combo from this month's kit as well as the beautiful large floral stamp:


I stamped the floral image on the 3 colours of Simon's Cardstock included in October's Card Kit: Burnt Orange, Bright Yellow, and Peacock using Simon's White Pigment Ink. Once dry, I colored the images with matching coloured pencils to add some depth (this shows up better in real life and in the close up pictures below). I added strips of yupo paper with alcohol inks/ gold foiling to the left of the stamped images as well as smaller strips of one of the other colours of Simon's Cardstock from the kit. I white heat embossed sentiments from the kit's Sketched Flowers Stamp Set on Simon's Black Cardstock I had on hand and adhered them with foam tape.

Such delightful cards, Sarah. The alcohol ink strips set offf the simple designs beautifully, and on your yellow card I can see the impact that the added pencil colouring has.

This is such a cool idea, I never think to use my white pigment ink and the added detail of the pencil colouring adds so much depth to the images. Fabulous cards!!
