Simon Says Stamp Shine On Blog Hop - Day 1

I'm so happy to be participating in day 1 of the Simon Says Stamp Shine On blog hop. I hope you get some inspiration and enjoy the giveaway and a special offer for this blog hop. This beautiful stamp set will automatically be added to your cart with any purchase from this release while supplies last.👇👇👇 

A comment on this post will be selected to receive a $25 shopping spree at the Simon store. Each blog on this hop is a chance to win! Winners will be announced on the Simon Says Stamp blog.
Today I am sharing a couple of projects featuring the Tall Happy Cover die from the Shine On release. I am so happy when a product is almost a "one and done" item. You can add this cover die to any background you create or pattern paper add a sentiment and you have a completed card!
The card base is made from smooth white cardstock cut from a 8 1/2 x 11 sheet. This is an A2 top folding landscape card base.
The background is a quarter sheet of white cardstock that I ink blended with distress ink and added water and white paint splatter. This one also has gold splatter as well.
I cut the Tall Happy die from white cardstock 2 times for thickness. I die cut the birthday sentiment from gold cardstock and adhered to the card with foam squares.
Because this is a Happy sentiment you can make this a birthday card or any other holiday you want to use it for. Super versatile!
For tons more inspiration make sure you explore day 2 of this hop and visit the Shine On Gallery. I have listed and linked the supplies I used for this project.  Thanks for stopping by and happy hopping!

Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Blog Party

Welcome to the Simon Says Stamp Blog party . Today I am sharing three fall themed projects using goodies from the STAMPtember release . 👇Special promotion exclusive for this post!👇 The first project features the Twisted Tree Arch die set , Haunted Pumpkin die set and the cute Trick or Treat 2 die. I used a lot of ink blending and die cutting for this project. I used a cloud border stencil and distress ink to create the background. The trees was cut from dark brown cardstock and everything else was cut from white cardstock and colored with distress inks. Next, I used the gorgeous Mod Forest Embossing folder to create the colors of Autumn. I also used the new Be Patient die cut from gold cardstock. I embossed a white piece of cardstock and used a small blender brush to color in the "valley" side of the embossed panel with distress inks and then dragged a brown ink pad directly over the colored trees creating the distressed autumn scene with a few inks splatters. So fun! Last,...
