Simon Says Stamp Festive Fun Release Blog Hop - Day 2

I'm happy to be participating in day 2 of the Simon Says Stamp Festive Fun blog hop. I am sharing 3  projects using a few of the items from this new release. 
Merry Wishes: I die cut the images from the Holiday Baking Essentials die set and colored them using copic markers and arrange them around the stamped sentiment with foam adhesive to pop them up. I had created a vintage background using a buffalo check stamp.
Sending You Joy: I made this card with an white card base made from smooth white cardstock. I then die cut the Abundant Leaf background die several times from different colors of cardstock. I paper pieced the stems, leaves and berries onto another piece of white cardstock and added to the card base.
Three Snowmen: I used the Bundled Snowmen embossing folder and coordinating dies to create these adorable little snowmen. I first die cut them out from white cardstock and then placed the cut images into the embossing folder to create the impression. I used copic markers to color them in and added them to the card base on the panel embossed using the Splendid Snowflake embossing folder.

I'm so happy to be sharing inspiration for the STAMPtember blog party! Happy 15th anniversary!! Check out this exclusive promotion for stopping by today!!👇👇 I have created a couple of projects to share using some of the amazing goodies from the new Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember release. I created this card with an A2 card base made from smooth white cardstock. I then trimmed down a panel of Yupo paper to create an autumnal background using alcohol inks. When it was dry I trimmed it down to fit the card base leaving a bit of a white border. I then die cut a frame from white cardstock and added to the card with liquid glue. I then die cut the new Fancy Just Because die from more white cardstock. The butterflies were cut from matte gold cardstock using the new Ooh La La Butterflies die and adhered with a glue dot in the middle so their wings could pop up. The next project I made also began with an A2 size card base made from smooth white paper. I then trimmed down another piece of...

Simon Says Stamp DieCember Blog Party

I'm so happy to be sharing inspiration for the Simon Says Stamp DieCember blog party! Be sure to take advantage of the  exclusive promotion for this blog party👇👇  I'm one of those rare people that begins to decorate for Christmas until after Thanksgiving. Using the new Ornate Star die I created ornaments for my little flocked Christmas tree. I feel like I could make a dozen of these easily! I die cut the Ornate Star die once from gold cardstock and once from silver cardstock. I then glued the die cut stars on to silver and gold glitter paper. I weighted it with a large acrylic block to help the stars adhered firmly to the glitter cardstock. When the adhesive was dry I used a craft knife to cut out the stars from the glitter cardstock. I then die cut the Merry Christmas sentiment from red metallic cardstock and white cardstock and adhered together for thickness and glued them carefully to the stars as to not have a glob of glue mess up the shine of the metallic cardstock. I...
