Avery Elle Summer Release Blog Hop

11.05.2017 by Caryn Davies 37 Comments

It’s that exciting time again – a brand new Summer Release from Avery Elle Stamps! I am so happy when the new goodies are finally available and we can start sharing all the fun projects we’ve been working on. I have designed 2 new stamp sets and coordinating Elle-ments in this release and am thrilled to be showcasing them today in this amazing blog hop. You should have jumped here from my fabulous friend Karolyn Loncon’s blog but if you want to start at the beginning (and you really should) then go HERE to the Avery Elle Blog.

Right, so onto my creations! The first of the two sets I’ve designed this time is called Floral Bouquet. It has a bunch of flowers as a large single stamp and then other elements such as leaves and buds so you can create your own display! I’ve made 2 cards each time pairing the flowers with one of the amazing new frame dies from the release (going to the very top of my “must-have” die list by the way). On the first card the images are stamped in New Moon Dye ink and then coloured with Copics and finished with a coating of Spectrum Noir shimmer.

The flowers on this second card were stamped in Versamark then heat embossed in white. I used Kuretake Tambi Gansai water colours this time and used a blue card base to complement the images.

10.05.2017 by Caryn Davies 4 Comments

Going Dotty

This week we are showcasing products from Stamping Bella. You don’t have to use them for the challenge but if you have them we would love to see them used.

As always Simon Says Stamp will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store

I love Stamping Bella stamps for colouring – they’re so fun! I particularly like this image because poppies are one of my favourite flowers and I love her dress!! I used my MISTI to stamp her a few times to get a really good coverage on her hair – in the past without the MISTI her hair would NOT be that solid, lol!! I coloured her in with Copics and finished with a sentiment from the Avery Elle die set, Sentimental and a few little drops of Nuvo Glitter Drops in White Blizzard to the flower centres.

Simon Says … Hint of Pink with Hero Arts

Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge

Thank you for joining us for the last week’s challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is

Hint of Pink

This week we are showcasing Hero Arts Products. You don’t have to use them for the challenge but if you have them we would love to see them used.

As always Simon Says Stamp will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store

As soon as I saw the words PINK and HERO ARTS together I knew I had the perfect stamp set for this challenge. The Colour Layering Flamingo set is possibly my favourite Hero Arts set of all time. I’ve used it so much and I’ll never get bored of it! For the background I stamped one of the images from the Brushtrokes set from Tim Holtz in Cracked Pistachio Oxide Ink. I spritzed some gold Heidi Swapp shimmer over the top and set it aside to dry. Meanwhile I stamped my flamingo using 3 different Simon Says Stamp inks (listed below) using the MISTI to make sure everything was lined up perfectly and added the beak and legs in Smoke ink. I die cut the Hugs from black glitter paper using the Avery Elle Simply Said: Hugs die and cut a strip of MFT striped grey paper before assembling everything on the front of the card. I finished it off with a few little dots of Nuevo jewel drops in Rosewater here and there.
