Pinkfresh Studio with STAMPtember®

Hi there! Today I’m sharing this project over on the Simon Says Stamp blog featuring the newest STAMPtember® collaboration by Pinkfresh Studio called Edged Floral. Here is embossed the large floral border in white and blended Pawsitively Saturated inks for the color. I stamped the sentiment in black ink, popped everything up onto a Buttercream card base and added Northern Lights embellishments for some bling.

More STAMPtember® Collaborations

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a few more projects using some of the latest collaborations. My first card is the lates collaboration by Hero Arts called Celebrate. I embossed the blooms in white and blended distress inks for color. I embossed the sentiment in gold and added clear sequins for embellishment.

This next collaboration set is by My Favorite Things called Love, Joy & Cookies. Here I created a grid using some Nested Square Dies. I created a shaker filling it with Red Berries Sequins and embossed the sentiment in white onto black. The images were colored with Copics.

This last project is featuring the Honey Bee Stamps collaboration set called Sending Autumn Blessings. Here I stamped the pumpkins with Intense Black ink and colored them with Copics. For the background I used a sheet from Holiday Color Blend Cardstock Assortment.

CZ Yay You

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a project using the CZ Yay You set by Simon Says Stamp.

SSS-CZ Yay You

I cut strips of solid colored cardstock and then temporarily held them together with post-it tape while running the strips through with the coordinating die for the badabing sentiment. I adhered the strips onto the cardbase and then lined the sentiment up in the die cut area and stamped it with versafine onyx black ink. I embossed a sub-sentiment in white onto black cardstock.

Are You Kitten Me?

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a project featuring the Halloween Friends set by Simon Says Stamp. I used only the kitten image repeatedly to create a non-halloween card.

SSS-Halloween Friends, Punny Animals

I stamped the kitten images with Intense Black ink and colored them with copics. For the background I used a sheet from one of the Pastel Color Blends Assortment Pack. I embossed the sentiment in white onto black cardstock from the Punny Animals set and popped the images and sentiment up using 3D foam squares.

SSS-Halloween Friends, Punny Animals

Our little cat, Frankie, looks exactly like the bottom, middle cat. He is very thin and always arched up, stretching and giving you this blank stare. Not sure what he’s trying to say. My son brought him home from Germany so maybe that’s where the communication gap is? The moving truck comes today to load everything in our house, and tomorrow we leave very early to start a new chapter in Minnesota. Our family is excited, a little sentimental and very exhausted all at the same time. We have been purging and purging and packing and purging. The bags just keep coming and coming. It never stops.

I am very excited to have my own craft room in this new house. I will, hopefully, try and document the process. Looking forward to sharing more with you from Minnesota. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Graceful Flowers

Hi there! Today I’m sharing this project over on the Simon Says Stamp blog featuring the Graceful Flowers set. I embossed a couple of blooms repeatedly in clear and them blended several Pawsitively Saturated inks for the dreamy color.

Football Season

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a fun card featuring the Football Season set by Simon Says Stamp.

SSS-Football Season

First I stamped the football repeatedly with Latte ink onto kraft cardstock. Then I created the jersey stamping poppy ink onto poppy cardstock. Then I stamped the cuffs on the sleeves separately onto white with Sunbeam ink and trimmed them out to put onto the red jersey. I stamped the numbers as well with Sunbeam ink onto white and used the coordinating dies to cut them out. I stripped it up on the background for more color and embossed the sentiment in white.

SSS-Football Season

Are you a football fan? I never was until last year. Started watching the Chiefs games, mainly to see the unfolding love story between Travis Kelce & Taylor Swift. I’m not a Swifty, but I am here for a love story. Time will tell if it will last.

Here’s to love, football season and cool cards! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hero Arts-Color Layering Holly Branch, Holiday Foliage Stencil

My project features the Holiday Foliage Stencil along with the Layering Holly Branch for the sentiment. This is just one stencil, but I did some masking to separate the leaves and blooms to blend different colors. I embossed the Christmas sentiment in gold and added some Translucent Sunset Hero Hues Enamel Dots for embellishment.
