STAMPtember 2020 Card Kit, Simon Says Stamp

09/25/2020

Phew! I have been busy busy busy in the studio! I hope you are enjoying all the inspiration I have been sharing lately. Today I am sharing a few cards made with the exclusive Simon Says Stamp’s STAMPtember Card Kit! This kit is perfect for all year long greetings.

Simon Says Stamp does a great job putting kits together, that have a great value and fun supplies! As always there is a limited quantity of this kit, so if you like it- don’t delay in ordering!

STAMPtember 2020 Card Kit, Simon Says Stamp

Included in the kit are some Crayola poster markers, they are waterbased, so I watercolored with them. Using one of the coloring cards included in the kit I created the above card. I scribbled the markers out onto a laminated sheet of cardstock, which I often use as my palette. I was able to pick up the color with the waterbrush also included in the kit. I was also able to mix colors – that is how I created brown and the periwinkle blue on the center flower.

Once I watercolored the image I diecut it with a stitched rectangle die. I also stamped one of the solid bars included in the stamp set, in orange, and embossed the sentiment on top with white embossing powder.

As a finishing touch, I added a few sequins.

For this next card, I used the stencil included in the kit, and ink blended with blender brushes a rainbow background. I used Distress Inks (Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron, Peacock Feathers, Wilted Violet).

When stenciling I love to use the Wendy Vecchi Stay-tion, it is a magnetic board that helps keep everything in place, and makes working with stencils so much more fun and easy!

On a sheet of Distress Watercolor Cardstock, I stamped the circular flower image from the stamp set, and the “hello friend”  sentiment, with Versafine Onyx Black and clear embossed it. I then watercolored the image with the same Distress Ink colors I used for the ink blending. I pressed the ink pad to the laminated piece of cardstock that I use for a palette and used the waterbrush included in the kit.

I then fussy cut out the image and popped it up off the card. I added a few sequins for a finishing touch.

There are so many other cards I could create with this awesome card kit, I can’t wait to play with it a bit more! I hope you enjoy these cards and find them inspiring for when you get your kit!
