Celebrate Release

April 17, 2024

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a couple of projects using the fun, new Celebrate release by Simon Says Stamp.

My first card features the CZ Grad Cover Plate. This is such a clean and simple grad idea that can have so many different looks. For this card I inlaid the solid colored cardstock into the teal background and added holographic cardstock for the grad cap.

My next card uses the Build a Taco die. For the taco shell I used Latte ink to add the subtle shading and solid colored cardstock for the all the taco filling.

I added some strips of cardstock for a colorful background and embossed a sentiment from Taco Bout It. I also added a few new Starshine sequins for embellishment.

I have a fun, walk through of the new Celebrate release over on the Simon Says Stamp YouTube channel if you’re interested in seeing more. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Be Bold Release

March 21, 2024

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a couple of projects from the fun, new Be Bold release with Simon Says Stamp.

My first card features the Branching Flowers Embossing Folder with the CZ Scripty Hugs. I added a bit of subtle ink blending to the blooms and leaves for added dimension.

My next card uses the Meadow Swag die along with the Hello die from the A2 Nesting Frames die set.

Both word dies look so good with matte gold on vellum along with a few clear sequins.

I did a fun walk through of all the new Be Bold products. You can check out the video HERE! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Wild & Free Flowers

March 15, 2024

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a couple of projects using the latest April card kit by Simon Says Stamp.

For my first card I used the Wild & Free Flowers stamp set, stamping the bloom with Latte ink onto Buttercream and using one of the circle dies to create a window frame for it. I adhered strips of solid colored cardstock for a pop of color along with milky splash drops.

For my second card I used the Floating Flowers embossing folder, included in the kit, with Buttercream cardstock. I embossed the bloom from Wild & Free Flowers in white onto vellum and added the left over circle die-cut from the first card because I’m thrifty & nifty like that:)
