Simon Says Stamp Beautiful Moments Release Blog Hop Day 1

Hello! I’m so thrilled to be sharing some cards I created using the fabulous products available in the Simon Says Stamp Beautiful Moments Release. I was so inspired when I received the package of goodies and created 5 springtime cards using a variety of techniques.

The first two cards feature one of the new embossing folders Playful Lambs. I LOVE this folder and it’s co-ordinating die – it has such a nostalgic feel to it. On both of these cards I added greenery using the Simon Says Stamp Autumn Arrangement Dies (not just for Fall) and my go-to die set – Pretty Bows.

I added a sentiment using the Giggle Hello Die on a Stitched Oval die cut and finished it off with a green pearl embellishment.

This next card features a die cut lamb from the Playful Lambs Embossing Folder with the beautiful Groovy Daisies Stencil. I die cut a Stitched Oval and made a mat layer using both the A2 Scalloped Rectangle Dies and A2 Rectangle Dies.

I have another spring themed card next using the fabulous Flourish Rabbit Die with the Groovy Daisies Stencil. I coloured the stencil using pink, lilac and aqua inks and then die cut the panel using the A2 Arches Dies and a mat. I die cut the rabbit then added tiny rhinestones along the details and in the ear. I finished it off with a sentiment using the EZ Strips Birthday foiled with purple foil.

My last card to share is a classic Saint Paddy’s day card using a fun stamp set – Print Making Clover.

I stamped the clover pattern using the three stamps from the set and then die cut it using A2 Arches dies to create a panel. I made mats using A2 Rectangles and A2 Scalloped Rectangles from shades of green card and then finished it off by stamping the Happy St Patrick’s Day from the stamp set and adding a Pretty Bow.

If you made it all the way down here to the bottom … well done! I hope you found something to inspire you to create with these beautiful products – don’t know how Simon keeps knocking it out of the park every month with such amazing designs!!

Simon Says … Anything Goes featuring Hero Arts

Image

Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge. Thank you for joining us for the Interactive Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is

We are showcasing Hero Arts Products this week. You don’t have to use them to join in but if you have some we would love to see them used.

I fell in love with the Hero Arts Floral Ramen stamp set so I immediately knew I would use this set for this challenge.

I started by creating a mat for the card using the A2 Scalloped Rectangles Dies from Simon Says Stamp in Ballet Slipper cardstock (Concord and 9th). I then cut two smaller mats using A2 Rectangle Dies from Simon Says Stamp in white and Concord and 9th Parsley cardstock.

I stamped my images using Memento ink and coloured them with Copics before die cutting and popping them onto the card front using foam squares.

Simon Says … Interactive featuring Lawn Fawn

Image

Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge. Thank you for joining us for the Not a Card Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is

We are showcasing Lawn Fawn Products this week. You don’t have to use them to join in but if you have some we would love to see them used.

I created a shaker card using some papers from the Lawn Fawn Really Rainbow 6×6 Paper Pad. I started by covering an A2 card base with a paper – I die cut it using the largest of the A2 Rectangle Dies from Simon Says Stamp. I then cut a smaller rectangle from a different paper and made a shaker pocket from a cellophane bag and my Fuse Tool filling it with some star sequins. I then took another of the papers and created a rosette using the Tim Holtz Vault Rosette Dies and finished off with a foiled sentiment using the EZ Strips Birthdays
