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:

Winter Wishes Action Wobble - Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Newton's Nook 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 Newton's Nook



I had so much fun creating this warm vintage feeling card, and adding some fun motion with mini action wobbles! I started off by stamping the images and sentiments from Skate Paw-ty on Cream cardstock in Cappuccino ink, layering on some embossing ink, then heat embossing with clear powder. Next, I did some simple shading and coloring with just two Copic marker colors. I grabbed some pattern paper from Carta Bella Christmas Village paper pad, die cut some circles from some of it, and layered things together, trimming the circles to add some different arrangements and interest. I popped the images up on those action wobbles, added a few enamel dots to embellish, rounded off one corner, and finished off with a bit of sparkly Stickles on parts of the images for a little extra touch! Check out the photos - including some action shots towards the end of the post:

Sparkly Winter Tags - Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Tim Holtz exclusive

Hello! Today I've got some projects using some BRAND NEW products for STAMPtember at Simon Says Stamp, these ones designed by Tim Holtz! There are also some surprises that were just announced with these products - including a free class from Tim Holtz, and a class bundle with these sets and lots more. I received the products early, and had so much fun creating these tags to share with you today!

I created a total of 4 tags using the Festive Watercolor stamp and die set, paired with Festive Tags dies. I started off by stamping lots of the images from Festive Watercolor using a mix of Lumberjack Plaid, Rustic Wilderness, and Scorched Timber distress inks on watercolor paper. Some of them I lightly misted with water before stamping, some after stamping, and some I inked with more than one color. Once I had a whole bunch of them created, I die cut them with the coordinating dies, then it was time to add sparkle. I added some Glossy Accent blobs randomly to each piece, then smooshed them into a little pile of Mica Flakes several times, which spread the glossy accents, and adhered the mica flakes all at the same time! Great messy fun - haha! While those dried, I die cut my Festive Tags each once from watercolor paper and white cardstock. I love the embossed edge each of these dies gives - so incredibly fun! The white cardstock ones I used my Distress Embossing dabber on one side, then embossed with Princess Gold embossing powder. The watercolor ones I did some ink smooshing with Lumberjack Plaid and Rustic Wilderness inks for a watercolor background. I die cut the tag toppers from Ivory Glitter cardstock, stamped and die cut my sentiments from Festive Sentiments, and then assembled the layers, using foam adhesive for the words, and liquid glue for all the greenery pieces. Finished off with some Ivory Jute String at the top, and a few Dazzling Clear Gems for extra sparkle! Here is a closer look at all of these tags:

Gnome One Sweeter - Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Trinity Stamps exclusive

Good morning! I'm here to share a card with the first of many 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 Trinity Stamps:


 I created a sweet little shaker card with this collaboration!


I started off by stamping my image and sentiments from the set in black ink, and heat embossing with clear embossing powder for some fun shine, before die cutting with the coordinating dies. I then created a shaker window using Simon Says Stamp Nested Round Hearts, and used a combination of Limelicious and Surf inks to blend at the top and the bottom of the window panel, and behind the panel in a reverse direction. Love these happy colors together! I filled my shaker with some new to my Trinity Stamps Clear Twinkle Rhinestones, and they are SOO perfect for shaker cards - I love the sparkle! Finished off with a tiny white twine bow! Here is a closer look at this finished card:
