SSS Round and Round Birthday & SSS October Card Kit Winner

Hi everyone!

I'm popping by to share a card featuring the Simon Says Stamp Round and Round Background Stamp and announce the winner of the Simon Says Stamp October Card Kit.

I stamped the background stamp on a piece of Neenah Desert Storm Cardstock with Versafine Onyx Black Ink before colouring some of the circles in with Prismacolor Pencils. I die cut the piece with one of Simon's Wonky Rectangle Dies and splattered some Distress Picket Fence Paint. Once dry I adhered the panel to a notecard covered with lavender cardstock. I diecut a scrap piece of piece of black cardstock with one of Simon's Nested Circle Dies, white heated embossed the sentiment from the CZ Design Birthday Sweets Stamp Set, and adhered it to the card. I finished it off with a variety of sequins from Lucy's Cards.

SSS October 2019 Card Kit: Floral Thank You and GIVEAWAY!

Hi everyone!

I'm stopping by to share a final card featuring the Simon Says Stamp October Card Kit. 

The large bouquet of flowers in the Simon Says Stamp Thankful Flowers Stamp Set was just begging to be coloured.

I stamped the image on the My Mind's Eye My Heritage lined patterned paper, along with the dots and a sentiment before colouring the flowers with Copic Markers. I matted the coloured piece with Simon's Black Cardstock before adhering it to a card front covered with a piece of Tim Holtz Metallic  Rose Gold Cardstock.

SSS October 2019 Card Kit: Miss You & Giveaway

Hi everyone,

I'm popping by to share another card featuring the Simon Says Stamp October Card Kit.

For today's card I wanted to focus on the My Mind's Eye My Heritage 6x6 Patterned Paper and the Pebbles Inc Foiled Stickers.

I thought the map patterned paper would be great for a 'miss you' card. I paired it with another piece of the patterned paper before spelling out 'miss you' with the alpha stickers. I die cut a couple of Simon's Mini Hearts from a sheet of the Tim Holtz Metallic Cardstock and coloured them with Flamingo Alcohol Ink before adding them to my card.

SSS Rainbow Lotus

Hi everyone,

I'm popping by to share a card featuring the Simon Says Stamp Lotus Frame Die.

I diecut the frame from white cardstock a couple of times, cutting away the flowers before stacking the frames on a piece of Simon's Surf Blue Cardstock. I then diecut the image again from various colours of cardstock, using individual flowers to create a floral rainbow. I adhered the panel to a Neenah Desert Storm notecard stamped with Simon's Outline Butterflies Stamp using their Clear Embossing Ink. I decided not to add a sentiment making this a card that can be used for various occasions.

SSS Wednesday Challenge: Bling It On featuring Stamping Bella

Hi everyone!

I'm back for another Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge! 

Guess what? 

This week's challenge is to use BLING and the design team is featuring Stamping Bella! Let us see you take your projects to the next level!  

The wonderful folks over at Simon Says Stamp are generously giving away a $50 voucher to shop at the  Simon Says Stamp Store! All you have to do is take out your crafty supplies, make something following this week’s prompt, and add a link in the Inlinkz at the bottom of the challenge post!

The Design Team is looking forward to seeing your crafty makes and will pop around to visit you ASAP!

As I was shopping for Stamping Bella products I came across this cute goalie stamp set and knew I just had to have it to make something for my goalie son. I obviously wasn't thinking about this month's theme, lol. It wasn't until I had stamped, coloured, and framed this little cutie that I realized I was supposed to use BLING! Oops! Anyways, I've rationalized my decision in that most boys aren't into bling and the fact that I dressed up this piece by framing it is the equvilent to using bling. ;) It now sits on his desk so he can dream of hockey while working on school. :)

SSS STAMPtember Fall Blooms Birthday

Hi everyone!

I finally have a card to share featuring something from the new Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Release. YAY! 

For today's card I decided to use the new Elegant Fall Blooms Die. This die was not on my radar when I made my wishlist but I'm glad Simon sent it to me. I thought it would be great to diecut it from white cardstock and pair it with a patterned paper background and I love the result!

I stamped the diecut with a sentiment from Simon's Sketched Flowers Stamp Set, added some sequins, and adhered it to a piece of patterned paper from my stash. Easy peasy! I think this would be a great design for some card sets.
