Love You Always~Simon Says Stamp Card Kit

 Hello, Friends! Happy Sunday! So, today, I've got a Valentine's Day card to share with you. I recently did a re-set of  The Hive and I pulled out several years worth of Simon Says Stamp card kits that I've been squirreling away for reasons unknown. And Friends, when I say years, that is no exaggeration. I've got untouched card kits dating back to 2015.😞 I see the kits online and they are soooo preeeety. Then I purchase the kits, receive the kits, open the kits and love the kits and then I box up the kits and put the kits away. Whhhyy?! Well now...I need to USE the kits!! My plan is to take a kit and create cards and projects using as many of the kit items as I can. The cards will be sold, donated, mailed out, or gifted. I am overwhelmed by how much STUFF I've accumulated over the years. So. That brings me to my card share for today. I used components from the February 2019 Simon Says Stamp card kit. Gorgeous, isn't it?

What drew me in? It was the stamp set and the patterned papers! The images in the stamp set are beautiful and the scripty words are Kristina Werner's handwriting. LOVE that!  Plus, I love all things vintage. This kit was just calling my name! 

 

Here is the first card I created with it...


You can see I've used three of the patterned papers, the card stock, the twine and the stamp set. I love that pop of black! In addition to the black card stock from the kit, I added some Love From Lizi Peel Off stickers to frame strips of the patterned paper. They add shine, sparkle and interest without adding bulk and that's a win for me!

I also finished off the inside of the card...


The stamp that I used for this came from the SSS February 2015 card kit. For continuity, I used more black card to mat the sentiment panel and more Love From Lizi black Peels Offs. The glittery pink hearts are also from Love From Lizi. I dusted a little Antique Linen Distress Ink around the edges to add to the vintage feel. I am pleased with how it turned out. (This card has been sold)

Well, that's it for me. I will continue to create with this kit until the supplies are exhausted. Then that will be one down and many, many, MANY more to go. Are any of you hoarding card kits? I can't be the only one, right? Right?! LoL! Oh! And by the way, today the March 2021 Simon Says Stamp card kit is being released. Have you seen it? It's another beauty! Do I need it? Nope! Will I buy it? Yep! 😄

Thank you for stopping by today! Have a wonderful Sunday and Happy Valentine's Day!

 Blessings~

The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge ~ Day Six

Hello Friends! How's your Sunday going? I had a super lazy day today and didn't get into my studio until late afternoon. I could not believe how warm it was in my neck of the woods this weekend! I had on my air conditioning and I was running around in a sleeveless sundress and sandals! But...that's the joy or curse of living in sunny Southern California!

Sooo...since it was so hot today, I decided to color up some frosty treats for my color share. I pulled out one of my all-time favorite Simon Says Stamp sets, called Ice Cream Dream. I used the ice cream on a cone and created a really simple card. This one is for a guy, so simple is best.


First, I die cut a panel with the Stitched Rectangle die. Then, using my MISTI, I stamped the images and the greeting, with brown ink. I colored the images with my Polychromos and this time, I blended it out with gamsol and a blending stump.

I can't even express how badly I wanted to add sequins to this card! Or glitter! Or even Crystal Effects! I kept telling myself that this is a guy's card, so forget about the bling. But then something came over me and I grabbed my clear Wink of Stella glitter pen and well...look what I did.


It's just a little sparkle, right? LoL! Next, I matted the focal panel onto blue card stock and adhered it onto my card base with dimensional adhesive. And that was that!

Thank you for stopping in today!

Blessings~

The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge ~ Day Four

Hello Friends! Welcome to Day Four of the 30 Day Coloring Challenge! I took a little detour from what I was working on yesterday but, I promise I'll get back to it. ~smiles

For my color share today, I did a little watercoloring. I used Handwritten Floral Greetings, the stamp set that was included in the July 2016 Simon Says Stamp card kit.



I started off with a piece of Distress Watercolor card stock. I went over it with my anti-static powder bag and then randomly stamped the images using Versamark ink, which is a clear, sticky ink that keeps the embossing powder in place. I heat set the powder and let it cool. Then, using Distress Markers and a paint brush, I watercolored the images.



After the piece was dry, I used a stitched rectangle die to die cut it. In order to get perfect placement for the sentiment, I used my MISTI and I stamped it three times to get it nice and dark. I felt that it was missing a little something, so I added in a few more randomly stamped dots and flowers and I gave the big flowers a coating of Clear Spectrum Sparkle. LOVE that stuff!



Next, I matted the panel with orange card stock and adhered it onto a white card base with foam tape. For the finishing touch, I added clear rhinestones to the flower centers. Sparkle, sparkle, glitter and bling!

And that's all folks! Thanks for stopping by today!

Blessings~

Simon Says Stamp June 2015 Card Kit

Hello Friends! I've been receiving the monthly Simon Says Stamp kits, but I haven't had time to play with them. Sooo, I decided to just sit down for a few hours and make a few cards with the June 2015 kit. It's a really fun kit, loaded with lots of things to make summer themed cards. I thought it would be fun to create a bunch of cards to send to friends and family to let them know I'm thinking about them.

Take a look at all this goodness...

The patterned papers in this kit are just adorable and Simon included the coordinating stickers, as well. The papers had a few cut apart sheets, so I used a lot of those for my cards. I decided to stick with the 4 bar size, cuz I think it's just SO CUTE! Take a look at what I created...

click to enlarge
My goal was to use as many items from the June kit as possible. I did use a few non-kit items, but that's the beauty of creating, getting to use things from your stash.


Here is a closer look...

click to enlarge
I used the little circle smile die on the top card. The enamel dots are also from Doodlebug. Even though they are not from the same collection, they coordinated beautifully with this kit. For the card in the front, I watercolored the ice cream cone with my Zig Clean Color Real Brush pens. It's also coated with Clear Wink of Stella. The back card has that sweet sun, that I went over with my Wink of Stella and then covered that with Glossy Accents. Again, all of the cards are 4 bar sized.

click to enlarge
I used the coordinating epoxy stickers for the first card, here.  Both of these cards feature a piece of the page that I cut apart. I don't usually make cards with these types of images but, I figured that since they are for personal use and just for fun, I would go with it. I added a little sentiment from a Papertrey Ink stamp set to the second card. I love bicycle images and I think this one is just darling. I added a few Pretty Pink Posh Sparkling Clear sequins to finish this one off.

click to enlarge
I created a simple shaker card, filled with seed beads, too. I used the stamp set included in the kit for both of these cards. I like having a bold stamp paired with the small, delicate type font stamp. LOVE the look of that! My ink of choice here, is Versafine Onyx Black. And yes! I used my MISTI for precision placement of my greetings. On the second card, I used more epoxy stickers to create a little relaxing scene. And I used Pretty Pink Posh Sparkling Clear and Pink Peonies sequins to complete the card.

I had so much fun with this kit. At first glance, I had no idea what to do with it. I was thinking that no one sends out "Happy Summer" cards. But, then I thought, ya know what? I could send out happy summer cards! And then the ideas, just started flowing. I've used up a great deal of the kit contents. I have a couple more cards to make and then that kit will be all gone! Boy! Does that feel good! All I will have to store is the stamp set.


This card kit is long gone but, many of the items can be purchased individually in the Simon Says Stamp store. Click HERE for more information.

Okay...that's all for me today. I thank you so much for dropping in!

Blessings~

You Mocha Me Crazy!

Hello Friends! I made this card a while ago and was debating on whether or not I should share it here, but, I figured what the heck, so here it is. We all have that one friend, who drives us batty, right? You love them, but they still make you crazy! This card is for one of my friends who falls into that category.

To create my card, I used products included in the October 2014 Simon Says Stamp Card Kit. You can see those items by clicking HERE.

And here is my whimsical card...

click to enlarge


Pretty goofy, huh? The friend I sent it to is sure to get a kick out of it. I used some whacky patterned paper to perpetuate the crazy on this card. I adhered that to a white card base and then built up my layers. For the focal panel, I die cut a piece of white card stock with the Simon Says Stamp Postage Stamp Edge Frames die. Then I stamped the coffee mug and colored the "coffee" with Copic markers and added Glossy Accents. I also stamped the mug onto a piece of coordinating patterned paper and fussy cut that out. I stamped on the mouth and colored the tongue with a Copic marker. After I paper pieced the mug, I added the goggly eyes. I stamped the greeting onto patterned paper with brown ink and cut that out. Next, I adhered the focal to the black matting that I die cut with the postage edge dies and mounted that onto the card base with dimensional adhesive. I added the speech bubble and some yummy sequins to finish the card.

I decorated the inside, as well...


I paper pieced this mug too. The coffee is also colored with Copic markers and covered in Glossy Accents. After adhering everything down, I stamped the sentiment with brown ink and added the 'steam' with khaki ink. I used another piece of that whacky patterned paper to tie everything together.

And that is my card share for today. I hope your week has been a good one, so far. Thank you so much for stopping by!

Blessings~

Be Mine, Valentine

 Hello Friends! I finally had some time to get into the February 2015 Simon Says Stamp Card Kit. And let me just say that it is a BEAUTY! It's geared towards love and Valentine's Day, but I can also see Wedding and Anniversary cards coming from these items, as well.

Take a look!


The patterned papers are just gorgeous. Also included in this month's kit is a Gold Gelato, a container of SSS Clear Embossing Powder, a paint brush and some rub-ons from the Kiss Kiss collection by Crate Paper. The stamp set is great, too, loaded with lots of sentiments that can be used anytime.

I really wanted to create a black and white Valentine, so that's what I did.


I used the Kiss Kiss rub-ons to create the focal panel for my card. I just trimmed out what I wanted and burnished them onto a piece of white card stock. Then, using a border punch, I punched the black mat and trimmed it to size. I adhered the pieces together and then I added a smattering of Pretty Pink Posh sequins to finish it off.

For the inside of the card, I used more rub-ons...


A simple black mat ties it all together. Easy, peasy!  I really like the clean, crisp look of the black and white.

That's all I have to share with you today. Thank you for stopping by!

Blessings~

Hello!

Hello Friends! Happy Monday and welcome to February! Today's card share features one of my favorite fairies from Mo's Digital Pencil...Fairy Tabia. Isn't she darling?

click to enlarge

I've used this image a few times in the past, as she is so fun to color. I just love her wings. I printed Fairy Tabia onto Cryogen White card stock and colored her with Prisma Color colored pencils. I used blending stumps and Gamsol to smooth out the pencil. I die cut the image with a Nestie and mounted it onto the patterned paper with dimensional adhesive. (LOVE that patterned paper, by the way! It's one from the SSS card kit for last month.) I added clear Wink of Stella to her wings and Glossy Accents to the bubbles. I stamped the little "hello" with Versamark ink and covered it with the Perfect Pearls from the January 2015 Simon Says Stamp card kit. Then, I used a circle punch on it and adhered it onto the card with dimensional adhesive. I added two sizes of Sparkling Clear sequins from Pretty Pink Posh to finish off my card.

That's all I have to share today. Be sure to stop by tomorrow for a special announcement! Thanks for the visit.

Blessings~

Thinking of You

Hello Friends! I am finally getting an opportunity to share the cards I created with the Simon Says Stamp January 2015 Card Kit. It is loaded with fun stuff, and I'm sure it's sold out by now, but all of the products can still be purchased separately.


I just love the colors in this kit. One thing I really enjoy about receiving a new kit each month, is being able to try new things and using products I might never purchase on my own. This kit is a good example of that. I would probably skip over this patterned paper pack if I was shopping...it's just nothing that would catch my eye. But I am soooo glad that it was included in the kit, because I just LOVE it! The colors and subtle patterns are so pretty. Also included in the kit is a pot of Perfect Pearls in Grape Fizz ,along with a brush and Mini Mister, both used in the application of Perfect Pearls. I think it's very thoughtful of SSS to include those items, so that basically one has everything one needs to create a card right out of the box!

I struggle with cards that have a sentiment as the focal point. And since this stamp set is mostly sentiments, I decided to just go for it. I was inspired by a card I saw on Kristina Werner's blog.



After brushing water onto the watercolor paper, I added three colors of Distress Ink and dried it with my heat tool. I added drops of water and blotted it off with a paper towel, to create that blotchy effect. Then, I spattered on drops of Distress Ink with a paint brush...messy, but cute. After everything was dry, I stamped the greeting with Versamark ink and heat embossed it. Then, I stamped the stars, also with Versamark ink and gently brushed on the Perfect Pearls and set it by spritzing lightly with water. Let me just say that Perfect Pearls are my new best friend! Sooo much fun and so easy to apply and the results are just gorgeous...so shimmery and beautiful. Okay...back to the card. Next, I die cut the water color paper and mounted it to my card base. The finishing touch was to add some Pretty Pink Posh sequins.

It's a bit out of my comfort zone, but it was fun trying new things.

That's all I have to share with you today. Thank you so much for stopping by.

Blessings~

Vellum Goodie Bag

Hello Friends! I had a little time today to play with the December 2014 Simon Says Stamp Card Kit. This kit is a bit different from previous months. This one focuses on a theme: Embossing. It's chock full of goodies to make embossing fun, quick and easy. Take a look...


Two gorgeous full size Ranger embossing powders and a mini Distress Embossing ink cube, that smells like cinnamon and I hear that this size was created exclusively for Simon Says Stamp to use in this kit. Fun stuff!

When I first saw the picture, I knew exactly what I wanted to create with the kit; the contents just scream CELEBRATION to me! I decided to make a goodie bag...SURPRISE!



The kit included a piece of vellum, but it was not study enough for a bag, so I used card stock vellum from Papertrey Ink. I have to say, die cutting the vellum can be tricky. I have several that landed in the garbage. The vellum makes a sweet bag, though and I think they would be really pretty for a New Year's Eve party or change out the stamps and they would make lovely table favors for a wedding.

Lots of embossing here. I used the stamp set from the kit and also a 4th of July set from Lawn Fawn. I used the embossing ink included in the kit and after I added powder and melted it, the image kept lifting. Soooo, I grabbed my Versamark and everything was fine after that. I used the Liquid Platinum powder for this bag.


After everything was embossed, I assembled the bag and added sequins. Very sparkly, very festive, very fun! The bag is slightly see-thru. I'm not sure what I would put in here. But, I think I saw a New Year's Mix online somewhere... :)

Thanks for stopping by today!


Blessings~

Season's Greetings!

Hello Friends! I've got a really cute card to share today. I made it using supplies that were included in the November 2014 Simon Says Stamp card kit. I just love the Lawn Fawn papers in the kit and that is what my card showcases...


This was a SUPER quick and easy card to make. I let the patterned paper be the star of the show. I simply trimmed down this adorable paper and adhered it to my card base. I stamped the greeting with Versamark ink and embossed it with Early Espresso embossing powder. Then I added a few Pretty Pink Posh Sparkling Clear sequins. And to finish it off, I tied on a bit of Mistletoe Hemp Cord. I just love the little scene printed on this paper!

Then, I worked on the inside of the card.


I used Early Espresso ink and a stamp set from Papertrey Ink to stamp the message. Then I adhered a strip of coordinating patterned paper to tie the whole thing together.

*I am entering this card into the ANYTHING GOES challenge at Simon Says Stamp.*

And that was all there was to it! Cute, quick and simple! Thank you for stopping by today.


Blessings~

Christmas Blessings Goodie Bags

Hello Friends!  Well, you shouldn't be surprised to see these, so let's just get right to it! I posted two of the goodie bags HERE. And then I received an e-mail request for 12 of them! They are to be used as table favors for a Christmas Bunco. I was ALLLLL over that! I got busy right away and did a quick Google search for a Christmas Blessings mix and then it was game on!



Again, using the Lawn Fawn Goodie Bag die, made quick work of cutting my bag shape. I set everything up and just went at it assembly line style. I did the same steps for these as I did on the previous bags. But with these, I added the Christmas Blessings Mix poem onto the back.

Click to enlarge

I came up with two versions. There are several out there online, but these two fit my needs.

Version One:
Bugles: Bring us the joyful message of the Heavenly Host, announcing peace on earth, good will to men. Pretzels: Symbol of a mother’s loving arms. Mary wrapped her Son in swaddling clothes and laid Him in the manger. Red Hots: Red berries that decorate the holly plant, a reminder of eternal life and Christ’s redemption. Peanuts: The promise of a future harvest, one we will reap only if seeds are planted and tended with diligence. Dried Fruit: Reminds us of the rich gifts brought by the Wise Men. M&M’s: Memories of those who came before us to guide us to a blessed future .
Candy Cane: The shepherd's crook brings back sheep strayed from the fold. It reminds us to reach out and help others. Hershey’s Kiss: The love of family and friends that sweetens our lives.

Version Two:
Bugles: To remind us of the angels we have heard on high. Pretzels: Arms folded in prayer, a freedom sought by those who founded our country. Red Hots: Symbols of holly berries that decorate our wreaths. Peanuts: To remind us to plant the seeds for peace on Earth. M&M’s: Memories of those who came before us to lead us into a blessed future. Candy Cane: The shepherd’s crook, reminds us to reach out and help others. Hershey’s Kiss: The love of family and friends that sweetens our lives.

I added a bit of sparkle and shine with a clear Wink of Stella glitter brush pen on the bow, a clear Stardust pen on the wreath and Xmas Red Stickles to create the "berries". Although, very faint here, you can get a glimpse of the tone on tone background stamping I did with Versamark ink. This creates interest without taking attention from the main image.



And that is all I have to share with you today. I still can't believe it's December already! But, ready or not, here comes CHRISTMAS!!

Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate the visit.

Blessings~

Merry Christmas Goodie Bags

Hello Friends! Today, I'm sharing the goodie bags I created using products from the November 2014 Simon Says Stamp Card Kit. The kit this month has several sheets of Lawn Fawn's new Christmas patterned papers, which I was VERY pleased to see. I like the color palette, too, mostly traditional with a touch of teal. Very festive, indeed!



I decided I would make a few goodie bags and I visited an "old friend" for the pre-colored wreath digital image, MelJen's Designs. 


It is difficult to see here, but I used the star swirl stamp from the kit to cover the card stock. Then, I stamped and embossed the Merry Christmas greeting. I added strips of paper, from the kit and assembled the bags. I printed the wreath image onto Presentation Paper and die cut them. I accented the image with a glitter pen and added Clear Wink of Stella to the bow. Next, I die cut the scalloped pieces and adhered them together. The focal pieces are adhered to the bags with dimensional adhesive.


And that is it for me today. Thank you for stopping by!

Blessings~
