Happy Birthday Party - Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Concord & 9th exclusive

Good morning! I'm back to share a card using the next of the special STAMPtember collaborations throughout the month! Each collaboration is with one of your favorite companies, is limited edition, and only available while supplies last. When it's gone, it's gone! Today's special release is one of THREE that are all being revealed today - this one is Concord & 9th


I love the happy colors on this card! I stamped the fun layering image in the stamp set in Honey, Surf, and Fairway inks, and then die cut with the coordinating dies. I also stamped a sentiment in black ink and die cut that out. For some added texture, I used the Swiss Dots embossing folder on white cardstock, tore along the edge of one side, and added that to the side of my cardbase. I arranged all my sentiments and images and popped everything up with some foam adhesive, then embellished with some Clear Dazzling Gems to finish! Here are more photos of this finished card:

Beautiful Soul - Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Alex Syberia exclusive

 Good morning! I'm back to share a card using the next of the special STAMPtember collaborations throughout the month! Each collaboration is with one of your favorite companies, is limited edition, and only available while supplies last. When it's gone, it's gone! Today's special release is one of THREE that are all being revealed today - this one is Alex Siberia:


This lovely blooms was stunning - and I can't wait to see how everyone colors it up! But, I had 3 cards to make for today, and limited time, so I pulled out another technique! I heat embossed the image in white on some Concord & 9th cardstock, die cut with the coordinating dies, then ink blended around the edges with some SSS Punch ink. I quickly wiped away any ink that was sitting on the white heat embossing to keep the image nice and crisp and clean. Then I layered together some white cardstock on a white cardbase (just to add a simple bit of framing to the design), some strips of another color of Concord & 9th cardstock, the floral image on foam, and the sentiment over the top. Finished off with some Dazzling Gems in Prism for sparkle! Here is a closer look at this card:

Reindeer Kisses - Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Pink and Main exclusive

 Good morning! I'm back to share a card using the next of the special STAMPtember collaborations throughout the month! Each collaboration is with one of your favorite companies, is limited edition, and only available while supplies last. When it's gone, it's gone! Today's special release is from Pink and Main:


The Reindeer Kisses set has some super cute images, and since I couldn't pick one, I decided to add a few to my card! I paired it up with some 49 and Market Mistletoe & Memories pattern paper - those tags are actually trimmed from a piece of that paper! I punched a hole and threaded through some twine on each one. I stamped the images and sentiment in black ink, then clear heat embossed, and die cut with the coordinating dies. I layered everything together, using foam adhesive for some of the layers, and then colored just the scarves of each reindeer to coordinate with a tag. I added some sparkly glitter drops over the scarves, and then finished off with a few sparkly enamel dots! Here is a closer look at this card:

Crazy Dog Holiday Card - Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Aall & Create exclusive

Good morning! I'm back to share a card using the next of the special STAMPtember collaborations throughout the month! Each collaboration is with one of your favorite companies, is limited edition, and only available while supplies last. When it's gone, it's gone! Today's special release is from Aall & Create:


This stamp set - Christmas Magic - was not really usual style, but I wanted to stretch myself, and I love the way this card design turned out! It would be super easy to recreate with lots of different images too! I started off by stamping that funny dog in black, and heat embossing him with clear ink. I then used A2 Scalloped Rectangles dies paired with More A2 Rectangles to die cut some layers, using Echo Park Christmas Joy 6x6 paper pad. I trimmed out part of one piece of the pattern paper to use for my sentiment, and added a loopy twine bow at the top, held in place with a couple tiny staples. Used foam adhesive to layer things together, and finished off with a few enamel dots to embellish! Here is a closer look at this card:

Grateful Florals - Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Altenew exclusive

 Good morning! I'm back to share a card using the next of the special STAMPtember collaborations throughout the month! Each collaboration is with one of your favorite companies, is limited edition, and only available while supplies last. When it's gone, it's gone! Today's special release is from Altenew:


This lovely floral image was just calling out to be watercolored, so I pulled out my Altenew watercolors, stamped up my images, and had fun coloring! I originally stamped them off the edge of a panel of watercolor paper, thinking I would keep the card one layer. In the end, I die cut each partial piece of the flower, and then popped them up on my finished card. I actually really love how that worked! I used some Spellbinders colored cardstock, and SSS A2 Scalloped Rectangles to create a fun scallop layer - so lacy and pretty! I popped my florals up with foam adhesive, added my stamped and die cut sentiments, and embellished with a few Trinity Stamps Clear Twinkle Rhinestones for some extra sparkle! Here is a closer look at this finished card:
