Simon Says Stamp: STAMPtember 2024 Party

 

Hello Crafty Friends! I am so excited to be joining Simon Says Stamp today for their STAMPtember 2024 Party! Loads of designers have come together to celebrate STAMPtember, which kicked off yesterday. 

If you are new to STAMPtember, it is a month long celebration of all things crafty. There are releases, collaborations, prizes, special promotions and lots of fun!

For today's party, each designer has a prize/promotion to share, so be sure to stop off at as many party participants as you can to find all the prizes! More info can be found below.

Today I am sharing a couple of cards that I made with the new Lovely stamp set. I love how versatile this set is and how many different sentiments there are to mix and match. 

For my first card, I created a fun and quick birthday card. Using a MISTI stamp tool, I stamped the main "Lovely" onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock (4.25" x 5.5") with Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide ink. Then, I stamped it again with Versamark Watermark ink and heat embossed with a clear embossing powder to create a nice shine.

Once the embossing was dried, I put the panel back into the MISTI and stamped the "Lovely" sentiment again repeatedly to cover the entire panel with Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide ink. I stamped the sub sentiments from the set with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. Using a white gel pen, I added some highlights to the main "Lovely" sentiment. 

I trimmed the panel down to 4" x 5.25" and adhered a piece of craft foam to the back before adhering it to a white cardbase (4.25" x 5.5"). I finished the card with a few confetti sequins from my stash.

My second card is a super clean and simple Hello card. I stamped the "Lovely" sentiment onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock (4.25" x 5.5") with Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide ink. I stamped the "Hello" subsentiment with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. Using the same black ink, I stamped one of the adorable images from the Clearly Besotted Oops A Daisy stamp set onto the panel. I colored the image with Copic markers and accented with a white gel pen.

I wanted to keep the card clean and simple to give all of the attention to this cutie and the beautiful sentiment stamp. I adhered the panel to a white cardbase (4.25" x 5.5").
