Simon Says Stamp - Happy Camper Release

Hello friends!  Today I have a new card for Simon Says Stamp that features products from their new and available for purchase 'Happy Camper Release'.   This link will take you to all of the new offerings, so DO check them out!  

This card uses the new Delicate Blossoms stamp set together with the formerly released Bundle of Stitched Shapes Die and Stitched Ovals Die.

I took a white A2 panel of cardstock and stamped the large Delicate Blossoms image in black ink.  I used my Misti for this in order to be able to repeat stamp for a flawless image.

I coloured the background and blooms only with Copic markers and chose to not colour any of the leaves at all.  I then splattered white acrylic paint across it, making sure to spritz it very finely.

I used the large die from the Bundle of Shapes Die.  With the skinny outside cut, I glued that to the card base directly and with the main centre panel I backed that with white craft foam and and adhered to the card base.

To complete the card I die cut the white oval and stamped the Thinking Of You sentiment and this was applied to the floral background with foam tape.

A few little sparkling accents were adhered for a pretty finishing touch.

Thanks for stopping by!

 

Simon Says Stamp - Happy Camper Release

Welcome to my blog and my second card for Simon Says Stamp's 'Happy Camper Release' which is available for purchase NOW!

My card today features the new Mid Century Ethereal Embossing Folder, Fancy Thank You Die and Fun Bird Die.  I have also incorporated into my design the Stitched Circles Die and Thoughtful Message (stamp set).

I took an A2 panel of kraft cardstock and using the new embossing folder to create the wonder 3D pattern.  I adhered this panel to a larger white card base and set it to one side.

I used the Stitched Circles Die to create two hoops that I would nestle my birds in.  I secured ribbon to them and applied them to the card with foam tape.

I die cut the 'Fun Bird' twice and ink blended all of the parts before adhering it together and securing with foam tape within each hoop.

Next, I grabbed the new Fancy Thank You die.  This comes in two parts.  The shadow I die cut in white and with the actual thank you words, I ink blended using the same hues used in creating the birds.  I adhered the words to the white shadow background and adhered with more foam tape.

For the finishing touches I came in with a metallic gel pen and dotted in some interest on the birds then I used a white gel pen to add further interest in the form of highlights in both the background, birds and sentiment.

To complete the card I stamped the 'for everything' sentiment on a strip and applied below the big 'thank you' and I adhered a few sparkling clear sequins throughout the scene.

I appreciate you stopping by to read my blog today.  If you missed my first release card yesterday please continue to scroll and you'll find it directly under this post.  Thank you!  Happy shopping!

 

Simon Says Stamp - Happy Camper Release

 

Hello and welcome to my blog and a brand new release from Simon Says Stamp.  This is the Happy Camper release and you use THIS LINK to take you to their website and view the entire collection.

My first card for this release features the Jenoblade illustrated stamp set called 'Cute Campers' together with the 'Simple Stars Stencil'.  I have also incorporated the use of the always useful 'Postage Stamp Edge Frames Die'.

I used the stencil on white cardstock and used blue ink and then used the stencil again on blue cardstock and used white pigment ink to create the background panels.

I used the Postage Stamp Edge Frames Die to die cut the blue panel and I also used the same size die to cut a kraft panel to ground the scene I was about to create.

I stamped the 'Cute Campers' images with black ink and coloured the images with Copic markers.  I used a white gel pen to add blooms to the shrubs behind the campground and to decorate the scarf along with other highlights.  Images were fussy cut and applied with foam tape.  The decorative panel was backed with white craft foam and applied to the white/blue star panel.

I stamped and applied the sentiment strip and with that this sweet card was complete.

Enjoy shopping the new release - available NOW!

My Favorite Things - September Release - Countdown Day 1

Products Used:-

Happy Camper Stamps

Happy Camper Die-namics

Joyful Plaid 6 x 6 Paper Pad

I created panels using the A2 Double Stitched Rectangles Die-namics and I used the Joyful Plaid paper pad to create the pretty one from which I pulled the colours that I would colour the scene with.

The feature panel was ink blended to create a sky focal point and the sentiment was stamped on a strip and I attached a grass edge behind the strip and stuck this down to the panel.

I stamped the images from Happy Camper and coloured them with the following Copic colours:-

Fir Trees - G94, G24, YG61

Camper - RV02, W3, W2, W1, W00, B000

Moose - E44, E43, E42, E41

Fox - E37, E99, E13

Images were subtly highlighted and then attached the scene with foam tape followed by attaching a few sparkling clear sequins for bright accents.
