Happy Hello, Simon Says Stamp Card Kit
I had so much fun creating a few different cards with the latest card kit from Simon Says Stamp. Be sure to read to the end, there is a lot of inspiration in this post! One thing I love about the Simon Says Stamp card kits, is there are a lot of different styles and you can create many different cards from one kit. I think my post today will show you just that!
For this card, I used the 6×8 stamp set, Happy Hello included in the kit, and Pawsitively Saturated Inks. Tidepool is included in the kit. I absolutely love these ink pads and have been creating a lot with them. I stamped the row of flowers using the following ink colors:
- Bubblegum
- Watermelon
- Cantaloupe
- Sunbeam
- Fairway
- Surf
I then die-cut the background with the largest stitched rectangle from Lawn Fawn’s Outside In Stitched Rectangle set. I adhered it to the Peacock cardstock included in the kit. I stamped a sentiment from the Happy Hello 6×8 stamp set with Versafine Onyx Black.
I then added a bit of sparkle with a Quickie Glue Pen and Prisma Glitter.
For this next card, I used the main image that is part of the Happy Hello 6×8 stamp set included in the kit, stamped it with Versamark, then embossed it with the Salvaged Patina Distress Embossing Glaze included in the kit onto Kraft cardstock. I then white embossed the sentiment underneath. I used Yeti Lawn Fawn pigment ink, and Alabaster White Brutus Monroe White Embossing Powder.
Note: whenever I do ANY embossing, I prep the surface using the Cottontail Embossing Powder Tool.
I then added some jewels to parts of the embossed image.
For these next two cards, I started by creating an inky background with Saltwater Taffy Distress Spray Stain onto some Distress Watercolor Cardstock. I dried that with a Ranger Heat tool.
I then used the Hearts and Stars 6×6 stencil that was part of a previous kit, but still available, and spread Distress Grit Paste. On one panel I used Opaque Grit Paste, and on the other I used Translucent Grit Paste. As always when I use stencils I used the Make Art Stay-tion.
While the paste was wet, I sprinkled the Salvaged Patina Distress Embossing Glaze over it, and then dried/melted it with the Ranger Heat Tool.
For the sentiment I ink blended some white cardstock with Salvaged Patina Distress Ink, and cut the top layer of the Happy Wishes die included in the set. I die cut the back layer out of black cardstock. I then white embossed one of the smaller sentiments included in the Happy Hello 6×8 stamp set, and fussy cut it out.
I hope these cards have inspired you AND there are so many other supplies in the kit I have yet to play with- so even MORE cards to come! Get your kit here!
