Simon Says Stamp Every Happiness Blog Hop Easel Card…

Pam Sparks54 Comments

Hi everyone!  It’s time to hop and be inspired by the NEW Simon Says Stamp Every Happiness release,  a Free Gift AND a chance to win!  SSS is giving away a $25 coupon to every stop on the hop from the blog comment sections. The winners will be  posted on the Simon Says Stamp blog where the winners can find out how to redeem their prize. YAY!  I hope you’ll comment!

Here’s my card from the release.  SSS sent me the Woodland Friends stamp set.

So I had to get coloring!  I stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black Copic friendly ink and colored with Copic Sketch Markers.  Mostly E 30’s but the stump is E40’s.

A totally charming set of cute critters, sentiments and accessories.

I masked off the bottom and ink blended Gathered Twigs and Mowed Lawn Distress ink.  Then I moved the mask and ink blended the top with Tumbled Glass Distress ink.

Here it is from the side.  I die cut the largest panel with Spellbinders Emerald Cut Labels and Tag die set in kraft cardstock, then inked it good with Gathered Twigs Distress ink.

I cut a top fold cardbase, scored at 5 ½ in then one side at 2 ¾ in for the easel.  I cut the corners of the cardbase off with a scissors to match the top Emerald Cut panel, then I inked it up too.

After I adhered everything together with glue, I tied on the thin cord from May Arts.

When I cut out the mushroom image, by hand, I left a piece at the bottom so I could score and make a stopper.

Here it is A2 size, folds flat and ready to go in the envelope.

I added some dots with a copic marker and a white gel pen.  I used a die cut heart and glossy accents to glam up the heart on the stump.

Here’s a short video of how it fits in an envelope and how it sets up!  (if a thank you comes up, just tap/click on the CC or subtitles and turn it off.  I have no earthly idea how it got on there!)

Have you seen the Simon Says Stamp gallery?  It’s awesome!  You are welcome to share your creations there also!  Check it out HERE!

poppystamps Corner Shoppe Pop Up Easel Set Card…

Pam Sparks7 Comments

Hi cardmakers and friends! poppystamps has created another easel card design so we can make interactive cards easily!  The Corner Shoppe Set is so cute and creates dimension sure to thrill the receiver!  I went ahead and made it a birthday card with the New poppystamps Birthday Banners set too!

I think the birthday message is loud and clear! lol  Light a Candle banner acts as a stopper….doesn’t take much to make it stand upright.

I just used cardstock from the new Memory Box cardstock pads, I’ll link below.  I used a few Distress ink pads to edge the pieces because I just like how that looks sometimes.

I used the super thin mounting tape that I love so well and always link to.  The little bit of lift is great but still mails easily for one postage stamp.

For the flowers and greenery in the window box I used the NEW poppystamps Flower and Leaf Sprinkles die. I thought they fit perfectly!

There are some other new dies that coordinate with this release also.  So fun for Spring but would easily work into Summer, Fall and even Winter!

Here’s how it fits into an A2 envelope.  I would send it in an A6 envelope myself because I like the cards to have a little wiggle room so the corners don’t get a little crinkled.

If you haven’t tried one of the easel sets yet… you should!  You can see the other ones by clicking/tapping to the ‘Easel” category over in the sidebar or the bottom if you’re on a phone or iPad.

poppystamps Sweet Nordic Snowman Snowglobe Easel Card…

Pam Sparks13 Comments

Hi everyone!  I had fun making this cute, easy easel snowglobe card. Click/tap on the bottom right corner to size it to your device.

Partial diecut a circle in a regular A2 size cardbase and you’re ready to add the snowglobe!

I die cut the images, NEW Sweet Nordic Snowman and NEW Lavish Merry Christmas,  in white cardstock and colored with Copic Sketch markers.

A little Tumbled Glass Oxide ink in the sky and a few little snowflakes from the NEW Shining Star stamp set stamped in the same ink except I stamped off first before stamping them on the card.

The NEW Simple Rings circle frame is cut from Memory Box woodgrain cardstock and the NEW Snowglobe Base is cut from old Bazzill cardstock.

Here’s a bunch of pictures.  So cute!

Peace on Earth is from the NEW Christmas Banners stamp set.  Dies for cutting them out too!

It will lay flat or stand like a regular A2 size card also.

I hope this cutie made you smile!  She was easy to put together and I love this treeline background die!  It’s part of the NEW Whittle Field and Trees!  Super neat die set!

Have a great weekend!  I’m hoping to get some apples processed and bread made and cards made and and and! haha

poppystamps Floral Vase Pop Up Easel Set Card…

Pam Sparks17 Comments

Hello everyone! It’s Geranium season for hanging baskets around here!  Ferns on the front porch and Geraniums on the back porch.

They always inspire me to make a Geranium card!

This poppystamps Floral Vase Pop Up Easel is so cute!  It’s not huge, fits in an A2 size envelope but it’s slim and so dainty size wise.  I love it!

There’s not much to tell about it!  You just die cut the pieces, glue them together and onto the card!  I did use my favorite thin mounting tape for the vase and the sentiments.

I wrapped a little twine on it… can I make a card without twine?! lol

So sweet and cute with so many different flower dies in the set you can make any flower you want!

I used poppystamps Modest Greetings 2 Hot Foil and Cut die set and Memory Box Cardstock paper pads.

poppystamps easel cards are all so fun and easy and I love that they are easy to display too!  HERE‘s the Geranium I made last year with the basket easel card die set.
