Good morning! Today I am thrilled to be part of an epic Blog Party starting on the Simon Says Stamp Blog for STAMPtember with Simon Says Stamp! What is STAMPtember? It is the month to celebrate all things stamping, and it all starts with an awesome HUGE exclusive release from Simon Says Stamp - and then lots of fun surprises and collaborations throughout the month! This party is also a scavenger hunt, as we all have coupon codes for something special with your purchase! I won't keep you in suspense - here is mine:
I figured since it was a party, what better word to feature on a card using the brand new Balloon Letters Stamps and Coordinating Dies!
I used a fun rainbow of Simon Says Stamp inks to stamp the letters, then die cut them out with their coordinating dies. I popped them up with foam adhesive on a rectangle die cut with Wonky Rectangles, then adhered that on a white cardbase.
Finished off with a sentiment from Tiny Words Birthday (not a new release - but a great staple!) - heat embossed on a thin strip of black cardstock!
I also created a very simple card with this same Bubble Letters Stamp Set - but this time I didn't use any dies. I also used the new Handwriting Paper Background Stamp Set for this card.
I stamped the background first with a soft yellow ink, then used my MISTI to stamp the letters in crisp black ink, adding the balloon string under each one as well - alternating which string or which direction I stamped it to give it a more whimsical feel.
I added the "friend" underneath using letter stickers from my stash - a great way to add a custom sentiment!
Finished off with a little bow tied around the top with some black jute string!
Make sure and check out the rest of the party on the Simon Says Stamp Blog - and then head over to the STAMPtember category at Simon Says Stamp to grab any items you have your eye on before they sell out. And then keep your eyes open every day for even more surprises coming your way!
