Simon Says Stamp Good Luck Charm Release and Copic Sale…

February 24, 2022 Pam Sparks4 Comments

Welcome to my blog today! I have a card to share with one of the new stamps sets from the NEW Simon Says Stamp Good Luck Charm Release!

Since it’s February and all about hearts… I went with a heart presentation for this Get Well Card using the NEW Well Wishes stamp set.

I used the ‘feel better soon’ stamp to create a 5 ¼ inch square background by stamping it four times on gray with dark gray ink.

I love how easy it stamped! I just used an acrylic block and it stamped beautifully! I stamped it on a Honeybee Stacking Hearts Die die cut in red. Backed it with a Honeybee Scallop Hearts Die cut in white.

‘You are on my heart’ is from the new SSS stamp set also. I stamped with Versamark ink and embossed with Lawn Fawn white embossing powder on black.

I love how crisp it all looks…and cheery too!

It’s 5 ½ inches square so it will require the extra ounce postage to snail mail. Worth it! hehe

NOW for What’s on SALE at SSS! I need some refills so I better order!

Thank you for clicking over!

Simon Says Stamp Mini Slimline Snowflake Window Stencil Card…

January 26, 2022January 26, 2022 Pam Sparks10 Comments

NEW Release from Simon Says Stamp! I received the NEW Snowflake Stencil and made a clean and simple mini slimline card. This one turned out to be 3 ¼ in x 6 ⅜ in.

I sprayed the stencil with Pixie Spray glue, adhered it to Canson Smooth Bristol cardstock and inked with Distress Oxide stamp pads and blending brushes. Tumbled Glass, Peacock Feathers and Mermaid lagoon.

Let it Snow is a newer die from Memory Box, Let it Snow Posh Script, both layers cut from heavy white cardstock. I mounted it to the panel with pieces of mounting tape.

I embellished the snowflakes with Memory Box Clear, self adhesive Fairy Drops.

I love these pretty, sparkly, Winter colors!

I stamped the inside with a newer sentiment clear stamp set from poppystamps, Wintertime Sentiments with Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide ink. Some really fun sentiments in this set. “Thanks for Snow much fun”, “Happy Winter Wishes to you”, Warm and cozy Winter greetings”, “You are One of a kind”, “Tis the Season to be freezin'”, “The world changes when it Snows”, and more!

I’ll leave you with one more sentiment from this wonderful stamp set… “Friends warm even the coldest of days”. I agree! Thank you for stopping by!

It’s That Time of Year… Diecember at Simon Says Stamp!

December 2, 2021 Pam Sparks8 Comments

I have a card to share with the die Simon Says Stamp sent to me to make with. Fine Textured Leaf die, designed by Memory Box.

You can see the two dies that come in the set off to the sides in the pictures. I used the smaller one to make the wreath on my card.

I die cut it 11 times in watercolor paper and then painted it with Distress Ink Reinkers. They look really dark in the pictures, not sure why, but they aren’t this dark IRL.

I used one of the plaids from Memory Box new 6×6 paper pad called Woodsy Plaids.

I die cut the Memory Box new Merry Christmas Posh Script in white and colored them with the E 80’s copics.

I die cut the bow with a die from the Sizzix Festive Greens set #662425, a Tim Holtz set. I used watercolor paper again and colored it with a copic B93.

Very non traditional colors… I attempted to add some red. Couldn’t do it. lol

This wreath would’ve been striking on white if I’d realized how it was going to photograph! and red!

Lots of potential for a million cards with this die set! Very fun making wreaths! and that big leafy die!

This card ended up 5 ½ x 5 ½ inches square.

Thank you for stopping by today! I’ll get back to my house… I’ve made a mess getting all the decorations out. This nine foot tree takes a lot of stuff! haha

Enjoy this new release! Lots of beautiful dies! Here’s to shopping! Links below.

Simon Says Stamp Handmade Holiday Release…

November 12, 2021November 12, 2021 Pam Sparks12 Comments

A snowy hello to you today! Simon Says Stamp sent me one of their new embossing folders, Snowy Path, to play with for this release.

I hadn’t use the new poppystamps Snowman and Trees die set yet so I thought it would be perfect in this shimmery snowy scene.

oh dear… it just dawned on me that I colored the path as if it was ice! lol Oh well, you can see it can be a path or a stream! A Winter Wonderland!

I inked everything with Blender Brushes and Distress Oxide Inks. The carrot nose is a Copic Sketch Orange Marker.

I spritzed with some Frost and Sparkle sprays and Winter Blizzard glitter glue.

A sweet, super shimmery, Winter scene A2 size card.

The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp Inside Christmas Greetings clear set and stamped in Ranger black archival ink.

There are several new embossing folders in this release and stencils and stamps and dies… festive and beautiful!

Thank you for stopping by today! I’m working on some other cards and hope to show another one on Saturday! See you again soon!

Here’s what I used to make this card…

Simon Says Stamp Memory Box Exclusive Stamp and Die Set…

September 4, 2021September 5, 2021 Pam Sparks9 Comments

Hi everyone! It’s a busy, busy time with tons of new stuff this month at Simon Says Stamp! I have a card to share today I made with the new Memory Box Exclusive clear stamp set , True Friend.

I stamped the main floral image from the set with Distress Anitque Linen ink and no line colored with Copic Sketch Markers. Y11, 13, 15, 18 and YG11, 13, 17. If you haven’t tried no line coloring yet, this would be a great set to start out with!

Here’s a picture of it just colored and before I cut out the innards. lol

I die cut the brown card panel from the Memory Box Garland Stripes and Dots 6×6 paper pad with Memory Box Wrapped Stitch Rectangles.

I die cut the Simon Says Stamp Banner die with a yellow from the Memory Box Sunny Orange 6×6 cardstock pad.

I was surprised how easy it was to color! It reminded me of coneflowers so that’s what I went with.

Here’s a picture of the set and the coordinating die…

I love it! I’m going to have to order the die set! It looks like it cuts out the white between the flowers! I love the sentiments too.

It’s Simon Says Stamp 12th Anniversary of STAMPtember! There’s a big SSS release and collaborations with different companies all month! So check in often and order quick because they do go fast!

Thank you so much for stopping by! I love hearing from you!
